Today a Politico article reveals the John McCain/Lindsey Graham push to create an international crisis with Russia has found push-back from an unlikely source, Senate Leader Mitch McConnell.
(Politico) John McCain and Lindsey Graham are backing off of their push for a select committee on cybersecurity after Russian interference in the election, bowing to the political reality that the Senate Republican Conference largely does not back their idea.
[…] “We’re just going to move with the individual committees and see how that works. If it doesn’t work, we’ll regroup,” [Lindsey] Graham said in an interview.
The House Intelligence Committee Chairman Nunes, has already clearly stated the insufferable intelligence claims of John Brennan (CIA) and James Clapper (ODNI) just simply don’t make sense.
Additionally, Nunes highlighted how neither intelligence group was willing to make their case of “Russian Hacking” on-the-record to the House Permanent Committee on Intelligence.

We need to get tweedle dee and tweedle dum out of the Senate ASAP. Can they be recalled or impeached?
These two old fools should know better. I can understand how the image of a boy in Aleppo with blood on his face can be used as war propaganda on some of the clueless masses, but these men should try using a bit of wisdom the Lord God gave them.
Because it is a felony to lie to or mislead Congress regardless of whether the testifier is under oath.
No, but they can be stripped of committee assignments, seniority, or even booted from the GOP caucus. Even McConell doesn’t need these morons pissing everyone off.
It’s shockingly pathetic how ignorant and stupid major politicians are. People given almost everything to know what’s going on are clownishly backwards.
Russia has been finalizing contracts in Yuan also. US dollars will become just as volatile and worthless as any other currency when it is no longer in demand by countries who must have dollars to buy oil. If the yuan can be tied to gold, if the renminbi can be used to buy oil, then we experience two painful results: (1) no more deficit spending, welfare, entitlements, bank bailouts etc. and (2) all the dollars that are out there as US nat’l debt have to come back into the dollar denominated economy as inflation.
Look for signs that China is buying bullion.
They haven’t listened to Mitch.
Lol.... Someone needed to ‘Bitch Slap’ those two leftist poofters. McConnel’s wife must be feeding him some male hormone pills.
