I lived in VA for many years, and this is still the first reasonable thing I've ever seen Warner say.

He’s the ranking member. Notice he didn’t call for a hearing ASAP. This is all deflecting beltway kabuki from Dims. They will block witnesses, testimony, etc. behind closed doors.

They don’t need a detailed investigation. Call in the paper’s Editor and the writer of the story. The information is Classified. There is no Media Shield Law for this type of crime. I would guess the paper’s employees will talk within a few seconds. This is major time. It is not like “contempt” for refusing to provide a source. We would have the culprits by tomorrow morning if anyone actually wanted to do something.

It has to be treason before Warner can get off the dime and say something that makes sense.

Thats why the owner and/or Editor gets called in. They can not publish Classified information unless The trump Admin gives them a pass.

Given the righteous calls from unexpected parties to identify and sack the leaker, I’d guess the leaker has already been identified and sacked. Maybe Priebus.

When has any congressional “investigation” ever resulted in anyone serving time or conclusively proved anything? Louis Lerner, the 30,000 “erased” e-mails, fast and furious, ad infinitum. Darryl Issa, Trey Gowdy, all a bunch of feckless wimps. Is that not why we have a justice department? Wait—the current feckless wimp Sessions mans that. Never mind.

Trump is going on vacation while the “heating and cooling system” of the White House is replaced. The vents are literally crawling with electronic bugs; our own government is tapping Trump, probably a holdover from Obama, who is listening in Kalorama and leaking to the press — probably via Susan Rice, whose classification was extended by McMaster today.

So WAPO probably HAS a pass!!!!

This is all treasonous activity. We are talking about the President of the United States’ personal conversations being hacked. Someone needs to start arresting people. In wartime. . .well. . .look what happened in the olden days to traitors.

BS posturing by a scumbag who thinks he should be President. Sadly, Warner will likely win his reelection, and his ambitions start from there.

My poor Virginia, so sad for what we’ve done to the rest of the country, Kaine, McAufliff, etc. It sickens one.

Jeff Bezos owns the Wash Post AND Amazon....Amazon is the big giant and all of us who buy from it only help aid the enemy...Perhaps we need to cut out buying off Amazon?

Warner is RANK. Halfwitted fool. Lightweight. But he keeps getting elected. What is wrong with this picture?

I live in Virginia. I know the answer - Liberal/Democrat/Marixst carpetbaggers with money, wrecking our lovely state.

I’m heading that way, going to start moving my purchases over to Jet. Won’t be easy getting the wife off Amazon movies, but I’ll do what I can!
