Senate Democrats want White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon to clarify recent contact he's had with Breitbart News, the conservative outlet he once ran. The senators also want to know if Bannon's contact with the site complies with ethics rules. Democratic Sens. Elizabeth Warren (Mass.), Ed Markey (Mass.), Mazie Hirono (Hawaii) and Sheldon Whitehouse (R.I.) sent letters Thursday to Bannon and Stefan Passantino, the White House's designated agency ethics official.

"Bannon called Breitbarts Washington political editor Matthew Boyle to complain about a critical article speculating that Reince Priebus's future as Trump's chief of staff was "in doubt."
Who cares. Good lord. Is it a crime to speak to people?
Inquiring minds want to know how many times did Valerie Jarrett speak to reporters and editors at the Washington Post and New York Times, on or off the record, when she was working for the Obama administration.
Who cares what demonicRATS want. They are not in power so they can pound sand.
They can ask all day long.
However... they can just piss off.
“None of your ******* business” is the only response necessary.
He should do what RATs do, send the a bunch of papers with, uh, and, it. The rest would all be with those nice blacked out redacted markings.
Whitehouse and Hirono are from islands. The other two are Massholes.
Who cares. Good lord. Is it a crime to speak to people?
Only DemoRatys.......
Derangement unlimited
Because the spineless GOP allows the Democrats to continue to act like they are in power.
The democrats know how they themselves operate, with little regard for the law. They assume everyone else is doing the same thing and they like the chaos their attacks and false allegations cause.
“I’ll do that when you clarify your recent contact with the New York Times, Senator.”
When did they ever ask Obama and Valerie Jarret about the ethics of their off-camera, off mic, private meetings with ANY “journalists” at ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, NPR, NYTimes, WashPost, ect., ect.
I remember one CBS journalist confessing that the three broadcast networks and CNN, along with NYTimes and WashPost had meetings in the oval office where the topic was how to sell Obama’s agenda in the news. And now some Dim (as in dimwitted) Senators want to know who Bannon is talking to at Breitnart!!
Bannon & Trump should tell them to pound sand.
ha! that would be fun!! I wish someone (not Bannon, tho) would ask Fakeahantus if she has she made restitution for AA financial aid for college. We already know she lied to gain employment.
Whitehouse is the bastard who wants to criminalize free speech to the point of jailing people for “wrong thinking”. Based on his criteria, of course. The man is evil.
Ignore.
Let them pound sand continuously for eternity.
How many times did Obama and Jarret give “instructions” to Media Matters to control the media narrative to the entire world?
Pure chutzpah.
Democrats themselves are the most lying, cheating, dishonest crooked, unethical, immoral, untrustworthy, back-stabbing hypocritical criminals and scammers on the planet.
Everyone they know and associate with is exactly like that.
That is why they are so suspicious and untrusting of everyone else - they can’t believe that some people lead honest, moral lives.
When they see someone who is religious they think “What’s his angle?”
Anything goes with liberals because they mean well and have feelings.
