Two Senate Democrats are demanding that Sen. Ted Cruz hold a hearing investigating whether Donald Trump's plea to Russian hackers to go after Hillary Clinton’s private emails violated federal law.
"Mr. Trump’s encouragement of a Russian cyber incursion of a U.S. presidential candidate represents an unprecedented call for a foreign government to spy on a U.S. citizen and interfere with a U.S. election," Sens. Chris Coons of Delaware and Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island said Wednesday in a letter to Cruz, Trump's former presidential rival who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee oversight subpanel.

Ted will be GLAD to!! In the meantime, the Clintons are up to their CROOKED NECKS with RUSSIA!!! The URANIUM DEAL should have put her in prison!!
If I was Cruz, I’d say, “No problem! But we’ve got the Clinton Foundation investigation to complete first - and that’s going to take a while.”
Cruz needs to be investigating why he doesn’t support Trump’s potential disruption of K Street krony feeding of Kongress
Kritters.
Editor’s note: NBC News is reporting that key Republicans close to Donald Trump are plotting an intervention after what many pundits are calling a “disastrous” 48 hours, and party leaders are questioning whether Trump can stay at the top of the ticket without consequences for the GOP as a whole. Sources have told NBC News that RNC chair Reince Priebus, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich are among those trying to talk Trump into a reset of his campaign. In the last few days, Trump has repeatedly criticized a Gold Star family, declared he “always wanted” a Purple Heart, and refused to endorse House Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. John McCain. Some Republicans are reportedly considering what would happen to the GOP ticket if Trump dropped out, but there has been no indication Trump is considering leaving the race. - Rebecca

I”m sure NBC is “reporting” it. And I’m sure Newt would like to do this-—because he really thinks he should be the nominee, even when he didn’t run. That’s why he wasn’t selected as veep.
We are scum, so do something about us being outed!
Can’t indict. No criminal intent.
Ha ha!
That’s right! We demand to see Hillary’s yoga positions, wedding plans for her daughter, and love letters to Bill.
In all seriousness, the level of sheer stupidity of these a$$-hats is beyond belief.
Trump wasn’t asking the Russians to “hack” Hillary’s mail server... He was performing a public service, asking them to TURN OVER the 30,000 emails that HAD ALREADY BEEN HACKED!
And I’m not really certain who is more idiotic... The idiot dems demanding this crap, or the idiotic media who is reporting it, as opposed to presenting the idiot dems as the booger eating morons they are!

There is method in their madness. It is designed to add to the fetid cauldron that the MSM is trying to place Trump in.
They assume that a certain percentage of people will only see that little tidbit and only that little tidbit and it adds to Trumps negativity. Then they will roll out something else to ensnare another small group of unaware people and they believe that it will all add up.
Trump did NOT criticize a Gold Star family.
The radical muzzie father criticized Trump for no damn reason.
Trump leaving the race is a liberal wet dream.
I see my idiot Senator woke up—Coons.
What a maroon.
Let’s have a Congressional investigation over a joke.
What's this "WE" crap?

No thanks. I don’t read anti-America websites.
Vote Trump 2016
Hillary Clinton was at the center of these efforts author Peter Schweizer argues. “Of the 28 US, European and Russian companies that participated in Skolkovo, 17 of them were Clinton Foundation donors” or sponsored speeches by former President Bill Clinton, Schweizer told The NY Post.
Hillary presented the "reset button" to Rusia in 2009. Circa 2010--Ex-Pres Clinton is
in Moscow having a laugh w/ Putin. Bill also got a 500,000 speaking fee in Moscow.
============================================
......the FBI expanded its email probe to include the possible “intersection” of Clinton Foundation and State Dept business.
<><> Then-SoS Hillary approved a deal that allowed Russia to acquire 20 percent of all US uranium production capacity.....entities with vested interests in seeing the deal go through donated $2.5 million to the Clintons......
<><> before the uranium deal was finalized (as insurance?) Bill Clinton gave a speech in Moscow, and was paid a cool $500,000.
