Yes, why stop there? Hillary is not a legitimate nominee given the way they cheated in the Primaries to rig things against Sanders.

These guys are 100% the problem. They are AGREEING with Democrats that Trump is somehow illegitimate. I hope Trump targets this quisling as soon as he takes office. Call him what he will and MAKE him go to the Democrat party where he belongs.

We need the CIA. They have operatives all over the world.

We’ll have to agree to disagree on this one.

You can’t run operations without intel.

As for nation building, please think up some other bogie man. This one is ripe.

What you folks can’t seem to grasp is that some nation will be the major influence on other nations. It will the U.S., China, or Russia.

Take your pick. I’ve taken mine.

Schummer and his cohorts are probably laughing their asses having pulled this one off at the dumb-bells like McConnell; McCain, and Rubio. This is patently blatant attempt to delegitimize the election.

Do you ever think if the roles were reversed Schummer would have agreed to delegitimize an election that Hillary won?

McConnell showing his gratitude to Trump for giving the wife an (undeserved) post in the Trump admin. RINOs doing what they do, stabbing their side in the back.

We need to have a massive “vote them out” campaign to help Trump, lots of elections happen in 8 years

This is really funny.

All these fake news creeps are running around trying to prove the fake story that Russians hacked e mails.

However, the REAL story that foreign money in the MILLIONS poured into Hillary’s campaign and into the Foundation... is NOT investigated ... and is OK?

Mitch is keeping it in the Senate Intelligence Committee, rather than a "special select" committee. I think that's the bigger story here.

McCain, Schumer, and the other TV hogs in the Senate wanted a joint committee outside the realm of the Intelligence committee. McCain is not a member, though Rubio is, but you also have Lankford and Cotton on the committee.

No McCain, No Graham, Mikulski's retiring, makes it a better venue.

If a hearing is held regarding Russian "Hacking", it also needs to include the following:

- The role of Chinese Money influencing Clinton's or other Democrat Party candidates.

- The role of Saudi Money influencing Clinton's campaign.

- A study of false flag operations under the Obama regime.

- Who killed Seth Rich.

Thank you Sir - you took the words right out of my mouth. Elaine “Get Rid of Overtime” Chao - the beard for Rino hubby - did not deserve a post. And this is Rino hubby’s thanks. You got that right!

Two things that strike me:

1. Since the MSM declared this all to be true beyond any doubt over the weekend, why do we need any further investigation?

2. Since this is apparently an outright attack on our country, even an “act of war” as Keith Olbermann put it, why are we asking Trump about it as opposed to the sitting Commander in Chief?

Yes, that’s most likely the reason.

McConnell is a backstabber. This would have been laughed at and considered inconceivable if the roles were reversed. That is, if Hillary won, Schumer was majority leader, and there was some whiff about Chinese hacking to elect Clinton. Once again, Congressional leaders are betraying the electorate.
>

Oh, he’s sure a braying jackass. No doubt/question.

THIS is the *best* the (R)NC\GOP has to offer for ‘leadership’ *rolls eyes*?! Some brain-trust there. Is there ANYTHING, except the Constitution, they are in ‘opposition’ to?

Course, not two brain cells to rub together to make the DEMs question their game plan, “As our friends across the isle are clearly concerned re: our election process, the (R) have submitted a bill to enforce our current laws and strengthen our system against disenfranchisement and fraud.”

Why only Russian hacking?
Expand the investigation to foreign countries unduly influencing the election. Charge the Clintons for the millions of dollars received from Saudi Arabia the 1million bday present to Bill Clinton, the Uranium deal to Russia, the 75,000 shares given to Podesta on a Russian company etc.
They want to play that game? Let’s play.
Let’s see some democrats go to jail.
