republicans of colluding with a foreign power to interfere with our election.

The republicans through Mitch McConnel blocked any investigation into it. They own this, and compromised the U.S. security for their political ambitions, and I hope they not only pay the consequences of this politically, but those who were actively involved are charged criminally, and sentenced to jail time

No country club prisons for them either. Maybe this is white collar crime, but it's also treason in light of the fact some Russian military GRU have been indicted. Our GOP didn't eff around with silly hobby-hackers, they went straight to the source.

Besides that, they're all complicit in the cover-up with very few exceptions. The consequences will be stunning.

that we will answer these issues of election interference "at a time and place of our choosing".

When Trump appealed directly, publicly, to Russia, everyone knew what he was doing. Sad that it takes 2 years for it to gain momentum.

worse than Watergate. This was an attack on us and our election system with the help of some Americans. Now some Republicans are trying to stop this investigation to cover up their part in the election interference.

This has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with Watergate.

There is nothing to compare.

Watergate was cheating.

This is treason.. the intentional attempt to overthrow American Democracy.
