Congress can see WHATEVER it wants.

Oh wow we better listen to Schumer because he has the GOP’s USA's best interest in mind.

Oh yeah without a doubt....(sarcasm off)

Their sense of right and wrong is seriously warped.

Chuck Schumer belongs in prison, too.

He sounds a little worried they’re getting too close to the criminal enterprise known as the DNC.

‘I’m surprised the rats don’t tell the GOP who the spy is and then tell them if you leak it you get a nice jail sentence. Then the DOJ can arrest all the GOP who knew.’

Haha! Sessions’—I mean, Rosenstein’s—DOJ will get right on it.

Wait a minute. Are they now claiming the executive branch secretly inserting spies into the opposition party’s presidential campaign crosses no legal lines? What was all the Watergate hubbub about then?

All Trump has to say is “You know there was something about......I never really trusted him.” Mueller’s investigation would then collapse.

Chuckles the Clown should be raising hell with the NYT and Washington Compost for printing and the DOJ/FBI for leaking the info that outed Stefan Halper!

But that is not his motive. He is attempting to divert the attention from the Seditious Bastards.

The dems are pretty worried about this becoming public. Must be big.

Schumer, you idiot, it is the DOJ that is crossing the line
by leaking the details.

Go talk to your boy Jeff.

So, if the Trump Administration identifies the spy, the Dems will charge Trump with obstruction of justice.

The “Source” participated in criminal activity.
He is now fair game.
Fair game for a Grand Jury.
Fair game for an indictment.
Fair game for a prison sentence or hanging.

Fresh off of defending MS-13, Senator Schumer is defending a coup against the President.

You can smell the flop sweat.

Schumer and Warner sound more like co-conspirators than public officials defending the Constitution.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Saturday said Republican lawmakers’ efforts to uncover the identity of an FBI informant in order to obstruct special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation comes close to "crossing a legal line."

Eeeeeeeeeexcellent! As long as it doesn't actually cross the line it's all good. Carry on with the uncovering.

Or should we call in Susan Rice to help pull the mask off the informant?
