GOP Senator’s Africa Convoy Charged By Elephants (VIDEO)

Sen. Jeff Flake’s (R-AZ) convoy to Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia was charged by elephants last week when they got too close to the baby elephants.

Flake was on a fact-finding mention with Sens. Chris Coons (D-DE), Thad Cochran (R-MS), Ben Cardin (D-MD) and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) to learn how the U.S. can help stop poaching and animal trafficking. Flake said in an column for CNN that he wants the U.S. to help curb ivory poaching in Africa because it can funnel money to terrorist organizations.

Perhaps the elephants weren’t Rubio supporters.
