"In other words, there was little of the bipartisan outrage that greeted President Richard Nixon when he fired special prosecutor Archibald Cox in 1973, leading to the resignations that became known as the "Saturday Night Massacre." Early Wednesday morning, Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, a former judge and state attorney general, linked favorably to an op-ed about Democratic hypocrisy. (It ran in the Wall Street Journal, which like Fox News is owned by Rupert Murdoch's NewsCorp.)". 

Of course there was little "bipartisan"  outrage.  There is little bipartisanship in the country thanks to the GOP and Putrumpski.  The GOP is backing a traitor and anyone who doesn't see that is blind. 

I watched Cronyn get his ass handed to him by Sally Yates in the hearing.  He didn't have a prayer going up against a smart, experienced, principled woman of integrity. He's about as partisan and a vitriolic good ole boy, misogynistic, old white man as they come.
