President Trump lashed out at the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence on Thursday, suggesting they should investigate news networks instead of his campaign.

“Why Isn’t the Senate Intel Committee looking into the Fake News Networks in OUR country to see why so much of our news is just made up-FAKE!” Mr. Trumptweeted.

Chairman Richard Burr and Vice Chairman Mark Warner announced Wednesday that their investigation showed Russia tried to interfere with the 2016 election, but that the outcome was correct. They said their investigation has expanded as a result of the new revelations, and cautioned they could not comment about whether there actually was evidence of collusion between Mr. Trump’s campaign and Russian officials.

Burr is a clown, you would never know that he is the Republican chairman of anything. I’ve met him before, one of the least impressive individuals I’ve ever come across.

No, really?

And can someone tell me the election since 1917 that they HAVEN'T tried to influence?

Don't believe Don Trump was even born yet, but maybe Burr & Warner will try to convince us of that.

“Burr is a clown, you would never know that he is the Republican chairman of anything. I’ve met him before, one of the least impressive individuals I’ve ever come across.”

Another “Southern State Mistake!” Burr, Cochran, Tillis, Wicker, Sessions, the two Senatorial Turds from Tennessee and Kentucky the list is endless! With McConnell, I now understand why they use “KY” as their state’s identifier. Just like the stuff that comes in a tube that you use before sex! I’ll bet you McConnell is a major stockholder in KY Jelly!

At last! Someone is finally saying what has been needing to be said. The "news" networks are a propaganda spreading vote manipulation machine, and it needs to be broken.

Why? It certainly would have been leaked that there was evidence if it existed.

But then Burr could not be Mr. Big.

Reminds me of the pathetic excuse Comey trotted out for hiding the fact that Trump was not being investigated: Well, they might have to change it down the road.

And, when such an august person says something that stupid, then it must not be stupid.

Southern mistake? There are many more Northern state mistakes, since Northern states vastly outnumber Southern states.

He is supposed to be kin to Aaron Burr (though I don’t see how that could be, his only daughter and grandchild were drowned at sea.

Apparently he is as treacherous and useless as his so-called ancestor.

It is inexcusable that he is allowing this witchhunt to continue.

Very true, but most of the Northern States problem legislators are Democrats. I'm glad the Southern States elect Republicans, I just wished they would change them out more often than every 40 years and that they kept an eye on those they elect. Mississippi had a chance to replace a half-functioning corpse (Thad Cochran) with a superb man in McDaniels, and they let old “Boss Hogg” Hayley Barbour tell them what to do.

Richard Burr is the descendent of one of Aaron Burr’s brothers.
