Misleading headline alert....those Senators are NOT bi-partisan.

They’re all likely on the CFI dole.

No thanks.

Looks like a bunch of America-hating commie libs to me. The democrats had to reelect McCain in Arizona this time. Disgusting.

Public Service Announcement...
Don’t get between any of these 4 politicians and a microphone or camera.

Whatever the payrate is for “reality show performers” these guys deserve. Don’t even need a script- they always know what the media wants them to say and do.

Let’s make this an open and comprehension investigation.

We should look at John Kerry’s entreaties to the Soviets to keep RR from being re-elected.

Waste of time and money for something that did not happen. Another red herring.

This is so blown out of proportion. Pedoesta submitted his password to an email link, like an idiot, and the DNC was Seth Rich. That’s all, that’s it. Keating 5 McPain and Bareback Lindsay are ridiculous.

A bipartisan group of senators announced on Sunday the upper chamber will form an investigative panel to look into allegations that Russia tried to manipulate the U.S. election by hacking into Democratic officials and groups' email servers.

Four senators, including Republicans John McCain and Lindsey Graham, have decided to avoid looking into culpability of the Democrats in connection with their lack of cyber security, but instead are investigating alleged Russian hacking of the American election process. Thousands of highly incriminating emails are being ignored.

Where is the bipartisan investigative panel to look at cyber security, and more important, the wholesale volume of criminal acts identified in the emails?

Not sure what the "Republicans" are trying to prove other than making fools of themselves. How embarrassing!

An actual standing, select, or special committee -yes.
Something like the “Congressional Black Caucus” or there are dozens or more groups like them, no.
