2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAny update on Senators calling for declassification of files on Russia's role in our election?
I've not seen anything on this for the past couple days. Has anyone seen anything on this since the original letter was sent?
The eight senators, including the incoming ranking member Mark Warner of Virginia, wrote to Barack Obama to request he declassify relevant intelligence on the election. They did not directly accuse the Russian government or President-elect Donald Trump, a Republican, of wrongdoing in the letter.
We believe there is additional information concerning the Russian government and the US election that should be declassified and released to the public. We are conveying specifics through classified channels, wrote Warner and his colleagues Ron Wyden of Oregon, Martin Heinrich of New Mexico, Mazie Hirono of Hawaii, Barbara Mikulski of Maryland and independent Angus King of Maine.

(5,650 posts)4. yes, a couple days ago....my point.....why no legs, no further information.
Is the President mulling this over? Will we be told what the Senators think we should be told? Why are they pushing so hard? Could maybe some of the EV electors hear this and switch to Hillary?
Running out of time to make a difference. Is it as explosive as we hope? Or just more of the same.....a let down.

What's up with the ART of the DEAL between Russia and the Republicans?
