Sen. McSally Calls CNN Reporter 'Liberal Hack'

Republican U.S. Sen. Martha McSally of Arizona lashed out at a CNN reporter who asked her about the impeachment of President Donald Trump. 

McSally called CNN reporter Manu Raju a “liberal hack” as she entered a room on Capitol Hill Thursday.

Raju had asked McSally whether the Senate should consider new evidence as part of the impeachment trial that began later Thursday.

Her campaign quickly sought to raise money over the episode. She sent a fundraising pitch to her email list.

A Twitter account run by Trump's re-election campaign shared video of the confrontation and urged supporters to donate to McSally.
