Top Republican senators say Congress should probe Flynn situation
Washington Post ^ | Feb. 14, 2017 | By Sean Sullivan, Karoun Demirjian and Paul Kane

Posted on 02/14/2017 1:04:35 PM PST by Innovative

Top Republican senators, including Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, said Tuesday that Congress should probe the circumstances leading up to the resignation of Michael Flynn as President Trump’s national security adviser, opening a new and potentially uncomfortable chapter in the uneasy relationship between Trump and congressional Republicans.

McConnell (R-Ky.) told CNN Tuesday that it is “highly likely” that the Senate Intelligence Committee will examine Flynn’s actions. Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), vice chairman of the Senate GOP Conference and a member of the Intelligence Committee, said lawmakers ought to look at the matter as part of an existing probe into Russian meddling in the United States political system — a sensitive topic that has lingered over Republicans since Trump’s election victory.

Rush and I thought the same thing. Means Rush is on our side .

Gope are owned by rich globalist donors like Soros.

I know Trump can't do this but he has to , tell the American people what is going on the GOP and democrat politicians are against Trump and the American people.

So we have to start a civil war to depose these corrupt Traitors and give power back to the states. secede civil war 2 declare martial law and get the head of the snake Soros. you get the king and nail him then special forces to capture all the rest of the cabal.

This is what I would do war is the only answer .they will go after Trump the media, the Gop, the deomcrats until they get him. The time is now to act. secession ,rebellion take thsee traitors down and capture the head of the snake Soros.

Maybe grassroots weekend rallies in the states, in support for and appreciation of our President are the next step...

That won't cow anyone unless the turnout is WAY beyond anything we've seen yet. Until a few of these perpetual RINO troublemakers get the fear of God - be it via fear of exposure, or financial ruin, etc - put into them somehow, nothing will change for the better.

The gop and democrat politicians are getting millions $ from soros and other globalist donors . they see people keep electing them and believing their lies. Politicians have never done anything good for America . the only ones are Reagan and Trump that I have seen try to do things for America. the rest do it for Soros et al.

So we had to watch and listen to Susan Rice, lie multiple times about Benghazi, what did she get........an appointment as National Security Adviser. How about James Clapper and how can we forget Hillary Clinton? This is absolutely disgusting and the Republicans are disgraceful. All Flynn had to do was admit it was a mistake, apologize and move on.

Trump only has twitter to counter the thousands of attacks.

the media has tens of thousands of reporters, websites , TV networks , millions of media outlets to constantly attack Trump. Trump is one guy and it trying to work hard to help America. He does fight back on twitter against some attacks . he doesn't own a TV network FYI.

So you unfairly attack trump too. who do you think is on our the American peoples side the media, the gop , the democrat politicians , the establishment, soros or Trump. Only Trump is on our side . gop politicians and democrat politicians are all owned by sors and other rich globalist donors that don't have the best interests of Americans in mind.

Trump is the last hope for the Republic so he has a great responsibility. He must be ham fisted with friends and foes alike. He doesn't need to appear on TV, just do. I said from the beginning his greatest enemy would be the GOPe and he hires the chairman of the party. Wut, Wut?

Trump is highly outnumbered by the MSM and politicians. HE cannot afford to make the slightest mistake or he will lose. And when he loses, you and I will lose and all his great plans to MAGA will all go up in smoke. MY concern is that he takes things too lightly and is over confident. The honeymoon is over (there never was one) and the winning requires much more effort on his part than it did a month ago. Things have changed drastically and I hope he realizes it and adjust his actions accordingly. There is too much at stake for the country and the most important programs seem to be left behind. The creation of Jobs, jobs, jobs (the platform that put him in the WH) does not seem to have the same importance any more because he is being distracted by unforeseen problems.

Hmmm. This could get interesting, especially if the leakers are found to be folks in the intelligence community left over from the Obama administration.
