Senate intel committee investigating Jill Stein campaign for possible collusion with the Russians

The Senate Intelligence Committee is looking at the presidential campaign of the Green Party’s Jill Stein for potential “collusion with the Russians,” a sign that the panel’s probe is far from over, even as allegations swirl that the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation is racing to a close.

Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.) told reporters Monday that the Senate Intelligence Committee has “two other campaigns that we’re just starting on,” in addition to the panel’s ongoing probe of alleged ties between the Trump administration and Kremlin officials. One of those he identified as Stein’s; Burr has indicated previously that the committee is also looking into reports that the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign paid for research that went into a dossier detailing allegations of Donald Trump’s 2013 exploits in Moscow.

Stein was present at a 2015 dinner in Moscow that was also attended by Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, whose contacts with Russian officials have been a chief focus of congressional investigators and special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s probe. Flynn and Stein were photographed at the same table as Russian President Vladi­mir Putin, who sat next to Flynn and across the table from Stein.

Stein released a statement Monday night defending her campaign’s transparency and integrity.

So...

* Trump is being investigated.
* Sanders is being investigated.
* Stein is being investigated.

That means every presidential candidate in the 2016 race is being investigated EXCEPT Hillary.

What's up with that?

ok but where is the investigation of SorozNazi, HilLIARy, illegal Muslim dictatorship financing, Obammy whatever his real Arabic name may be, DebbieWasherwoman S, and NancyPelozi for doctoring the eligibility certification form for Obammy in the first place?

this is the Big Elephant in the room, and so investigation of Jill whatever is minor by comparison

She has been investigated. It was a make-pretend investigation, but hey, at least it was an investigation.

Burr sure spends a lot of time wiping Democrat behind. What a useless GOP Senator and especially committee chairman.

Divert, divert, divert.

Who really gives a crap about Jill Stein?

This isn’t worth 15 cents of Congressional time.

It would be nice if someone could demonstrate how collusion is a federal crime outside of antitrust law.

Did you really only read the title and not 4 sentences into the article?!

Hillary is still ticked at Jill Stein—so that means the Deep State has Jill Stein on their dog list.

Great point.

That's glaring and telling by her absence from the list.

Hillary's campaign is THE ONE that should be investigated.

There's plenty of smoke coming out of that failed presidential attempt so you know there's some fire in that campaign.

1. Jill Stein working for the Russians
2. Jill Stein takes votes from Hillary
3. Trump elected

Therefore, Stein colluded with the Russians, to elect Trump and thus is part of cabal of collusion including Trump, Stein and Putin.

This is the insanity that the media will be telling us in a couple of days. Their mendacity and lies become greater each day Trump is in office.

I wouldn’t care if Jill and Vlad had sex together in the bed previously used by Obola and the Mooch and followed it up by giving the bed a golden shower, even though the shower would be better reserved for Obola and the Mooch in person.
