Sen. Ben Sasse

The Republican from Nebraska speaks with NPR's Steve Inskeep about the impeachment of former President Donald Trump, the future of the GOP and working with the Biden administration.

In an interview with NPR, the senator called the president's conduct a "flagrant dereliction of his duty." He also criticized Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley for his challenge to the election's results.

Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue says the short-term assistance shows the president has the farmers' backs. GOP critics call it a bailout.
