40 Electoral College Members Demand Briefing On Russian Interference
The Hill ^ | December 13, 2016 | By Jennifer Calfas

Posted on 12/15/2016 5:28:09 AM PST by Fennie

Forty members of the Electoral College on Tuesday signed a letter demanding an intelligence briefing on Russian interference in the election ahead of their Dec. 19 vote.

Ten electors originally signed the letter when it was published Monday, and 30 more have since added their names.

The open letter - led by Christine Pelosi, the daughter of House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) - urged Director of National Intelligence James Clapper to give a detailed briefing on President-elect Donald Trump's ties to Russia.

"We further require a briefing on all investigative findings, as these matters directly impact the core factors in our deliberations of whether Mr. Trump is fit to serve as President of the United States," the letter read. The Clinton campaign applauded the effort Monday, saying it had repeatedly warned about Russian interference aimed at swaying the election in Trump's favor.

What are these idiots going to do when they find out their own people in the Clinton campaign released the emails and NOT the Russians?

He [clapper] doesn’t need to brief them. Just issue a finding that it didn’t happen. Case closed.

I’ve never seen so many politicos flirting with treason.

One morning we’re going to wake up. The internet will be down for everybody, Cell phone service down for everybody.

When you turn on your TV and tune into a local station, or and AM radio station you’ll find out the coup is in process.

I would like to see 300,000 protesters storming the capitol building and hunting down the culprits and give them wedgies like they’ve never seen.

In 2000 there was one state,a *big* state,that was at issue.It came down to about 500 votes in a state that cast almost 6 million votes.In that kind of scenario it's somewhat understandable that algore would do what he did.

Now,we have three states.Two are large ones (though not as large as Florida) and one is medium sized.The margin of victory was no less than 10,000 votes in any of those three states.So recounts were clearly not gonna accomplish anything.

And now accusations of foreign interference.

The Former Twelfth Lady has clearly "trumped" algore in terms of utter depravity.

They way some of these people act, pulling their shirt over their head would suffice as a ‘wedgie’.

The Hill is garbage. Don’t even waste your time reading their grade school journalism. Lately it is as bad as Yahoo News. The left is stuffing the elector and Russian nonsense insistently. One of the left’s tactics is news fatigue and crafting lies enough to become “truth” as it is repeated ad nauseam. Millions with the intellect and brain capacity of The View watcher just keep on repeating fake stories and facts in the news and their social media. The goal is to delegitimize Trump and demoralize Americans as much as possible especially before the inauguration.

If they don’t have a clearance they can’t get a briefing.
