The Corpus Christi Caller reported, via Free Republic:
“ Corpus Christi Republican Congressman Blake Farenthold considers the source behind the 2016 hack of the Democratic National Committee’s email server an unanswered question and believes a federal investigation is warranted.
Speaking on CNN Wednesday, the fourth-term congressman refuted a widely believed conclusion that the Russian government interfered with the U.S. presidential election to aid President Donald Trump’s campaign and instead indicated a conspiracy theory about a slain Democratic National Committee staffer could be true.
“My fear is our constant focusing on the Russians is deflecting away for some other things that we need to be investigating,” Farenthold said on the network. “There’s still some question as to whether the intrusion of the DNC server was an insider job or whether or not it was the Russians.”
Later Wednesday, Farenthold elaborated on his opinion of how the investigation should be handled in a phone interview with the Caller-Times. The death should be investigated in the same manner Russian interference has been reviewed, he said.

Until the “GOP Lawmaker” is someone like Mitch McConnell, such headlines will remain background noise.
I thought even Julian Assange had stated that Wikileaks information was NOT from the Russians. The man is not known to lie, so that should carry a lot of weight.
It boils down to ‘hack’ vs. ‘Leak’.
Let that sink in. This difference makes all he difference.
It is a start. Now others need to step forward and put a stop to the Investigation Into Nothing. Contact Congressmen and read them the Riot Act.
The CNN interview is essential if only to see how the media is actively working for the Left. The two dolts were editorializing, correcting, massaging every word from Farenthold, even giving him a preemptive “Shoosh!” when he was about to name Seth Rich. They used Hannity’s recent demurral as a basis for the “Shoosh!”
Our enemies.
Sean Hannity played an interview of Julian Assange on his radio show recently.
It was the audio of a TV interview Assange gave to Dutch television last August.
Assange said that the Podesta e-mail leaker was a 27-year old guy. Didn’t mention Seth Rich by name, but it was clear who Assange was talking about.
Calling for something isn’t news.
According to what Rod Wheeler said, there already has been a federal investigation of the Seth Rich killing and the role of the FBI has been to bury it and tell the DC police to stand down.
We need a new federal anti-corruption force with new investigators and new prosecutors who are patriots and who are honest and tough, outside the DOJ and FBI which have been corrupted by Clinton and Obama for many years, in order to investigate and root out the corruption in the DOJ and FBI and start putting these corrupt crooks behind bars.
Maybe we could get honest prosecutors from some of the state DA offices and honest investigators from the Defense Department, and turn them loose on the crooks in the DOJ and FBI.
Finally someone in the GOP with a spine.
Yes.... lot’s of smoke.
Debbie has made her threats to the police chief..... Amazing!
Any other venue and Debbie would have her ass hauled up in front of a judge and made to answer for her bad acts.
Good thing we have no advertisers to cut us off.
The GOP of today reminds me of a 111 year old man that barely has enough energy to urinate in place, rather than go to the bathroom.
They are almost invisible. They do nothing to support our cause. We have this massive opportunity, and what they are doing with it isn’t just frustrating, it’s TRAGIC.
As if that weren’t bad enough, they are actually siding with the enemy through their refusal to capitalize on the opportunity we provided them.
They are stalling. They hope to wait until the end of the year or early next year so they can say they don’t want to lose elections, so they can’t do anything until after November 2018.
I have never seen such open treachery from Congress. NEVER!
That rings true again Jim. Good point.
From what I’m hearing, the person to head the FBI will make the libs heads explode...anymore than that, I have no idea who it could be...
If any of us that are on Free Republic do not think we are doing any good, think again...
I know some high up people who read here everyday...and they take a lot of what we post as threads and remarks and use them...
Good Job to all of us FReepers...Thanks Jim!!!
all it takes is one honest congress critter and a good poster! thanks Harley...
