Wow. Daffy Duck Senator Wyden is going to the mat to protect Chalupa. Speaking of which, I think Taco Bell is running the $5 Chalupa lunch box again. Love those.

Sen. Ron Wyden warns FBI against giving GOP records from ex-DNC consultant
Wyden warned that complying with the records request related to Alexandra Chalupa, who is alleged to have sought dirt from Ukraine to undermine then-candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 election, would have dangerous consequences. As Chalupa conducted research on Paul Manafort, who did lobbying work for a pro-Russia Ukrainian oligarchs and later became Trump’s campaign manager, the Ukrainian American activist began receiving notifications from Yahoo security that claimed she was the victim of a “state-sponsored” cyberattack.
The Senators request will have a chilling effect on the victims of nation state cyberattacks, and would discourage them from seeking law enforcement assistance, thereby jeopardizing our national security, limiting our ability to respond to sophisticated cyberattacks, and undermining the civil liberties of American citizens, Wyden wrote in a letter to Attorney General William Barr and FBI Director Christopher Wray on Thursday.
