The nonprofit named for the late Sen. John McCain is looking for "mavericks" to vote in the Nov. 6 midterm election and fight for human rights around the world. The plea comes as President Trump pursues his "America first" foreign policy.

The issue is especially relevant amid the international outcry over the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in a Saudi Arabian consulate in Turkey.

The Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia donated $1 million to The McCain Institute Foundation in 2014, the largest single gift listed on its tax filings since its creation in 2012.


Coker, Flake, anyone else interested?

Never Trump RINOs are the lowest form of political vermin.

The worst part about NeverTrumpRINOs is their delusion that anyone is buying or believing them. That there’s some mandate out there for them. It makes me nuts.

RINOs are a lose-lose political group.

True conservatives don't like them, so RINOs will not get their support.

Democrats don't like them, so RINOs will never win a general election.

Probably why you are seeing some traditionally establishment people like McConnell, Graham, and Hatch loosen up a bit and embrace a broader base of conservatives.

International outcry? Really?

I would be willing to bet that if you walked the streets of any country and asked about this story, very few people would know what you're talking about and even fewer would care.

Journalists and politicians who think they can score some point are the only ones that seem to think this is a story.
