Trump investigations will test a key bipartisan friendship on the Hill | Analysis by MichaelRWarren
Washington One of the more interesting revelations to come out of last week's nationally-televised hearing with President Donald Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen was that a top Democrat and Republican lawmaker are actually close friends.
That news came toward the end of the marathon session, when House Oversight Committee chairman Elijah Cummings stood up for Republican Rep. Mark Meadows in the face of accusations of racism. The chairman referred to Meadows as one of his"best friends.""I know that shocks a lot of people," Cummings said.Having two best friends from opposing parties is certainly a rarity on Capitol Hill these days.
