JUST NOW: @BillCassidy says he has no regrets about voting to convict Trump in the J6 impeachment. “I actually voted to uphold the Constitution. That’s a better way to put it,” he tells reporters.
“I voted to uphold the Constitution. That may have cost me my seat, but who cares? I had the privilege of voting to uphold the Constitution. Isn't that a great thing? Wouldn't all of us want to say I voted to support the Constitution on something momentous? That's what I feel about it. I'm very pleased about it.”
