The Senate Intelligence Committee’s hacking investigation is setting up to be the first of many Russia-themed investigations ongoing in Congress, with officials indicating that they intend to force members of the incoming Trump Administration to testify as to their connections to Russia as part of the probe.
Sen. Richard Burr (R – NC), the committee chairman, says he is willing to use subpoenas to compel members of the Trump team to testify, insisting the committee wants a “full understanding of the scope of Russian intelligence activities impacting the United States.”
Burr’s joint statement with the ranking Democrat indicated this was going to take them down the question of “Russia and the 2016 US election,” including any potential links between Russia and any individuals involved with political campaigns.
Though the statement did not explicitly single out the Trump campaign in this regard, it is certain to be the focus, with many Democrats blaming Russia for Trump’s election, and many Republican hawks hoping to use such inquiries as leverage to force Trump to back away from a planned rapprochement with Russia.
There is as yet no indication that anyone involved in the Trump campaign planned to resist being called by the panel, which makes it unclear why they felt the need to threaten a subpoena.
How about the Congress and Israel links? Those are real.
December 12, 2016 Georgia Official Says Homeland Security Tried To Hack Their State’s Voter Database
While most of the country frets over Russia’s role in the 2016 election, the state of Georgia has come forward saying that they’ve traced an IP from a hack of their voter database right back to the offices of the Department of Homeland Security. Apparently we need to focus on protecting our vote from our own government. The Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

This is a classic expedition and waste of taxpayers dollars. And the Republicans are the ones that will feel it at the voting booth. They are just hoping people will get tired of the chaos, and vote “safe” politicians, the corrupt elite, back into the power. And the truth is, unless a real movement is organized and formalized, to keep track of the abuses of power, such as this, Republican party will use all of its money and influence to keep us on the path to globalization, and the loss of every influence in the process, as well as the inability to ever call anyone to the account.
Hope Trump will use his time in office wisely. Everything is against him. The witch hunt will go on, chaos created to add to the effect, then the chaos they created will be fed into the media loop to prove that this is the outcome of Trump governing. He needs to devolve many things to states, to insure the globalists have as little power at their disposal at the Federal level.
It is amazing how much nonsense can be created, when a determined cabal with plenty of money, and feeling in danger — focuses on its prey. Hope Trump and his team are up to it, and prepared.
Just get people a good tax cut, and let us see WHO in this Republican Congress has the guts to stop it. It can be paid easily through the waste in the military contracting complex.
Trump will do nothing he promised but that’s not important. It’s all in how he spins it to look like he did. Or- coming up with the proper spin to show why he didn’t. I wonder if the lowlife who voted for him will be as receptive to those tactics as the more educated have been?
Trump is going to have to stay in tight with the Republicans because R supporters will be solid to the party and that makes them ‘for free’ for Trump. No matter how many really stupid things he does, the party faithful will be there!

New line of the day. (much like the old line)
“The fact that no evidence has been found, proves they must be hiding something”. (Sound familiar?)
Question; How is it that Hillary wasn’t compromised by taking a couple hundred million for “speeches”, yet the very thought of doing business with Russia is “compromising”?
Answer; Because it has nothing to do with being “compromised”, they are all compromised in one way or another themselves.
What they seem worried about is that Trump might NOT be compromised and that is not acceptable behavior. Think about this. If they actually had something on him, they wouldn’t be worried about him, they would just use it to control him or they would have destroyed him before now (and trust me, they all looked). Furthermore, if he was controlled by the same folks as they are they wouldn’t be worried either now would they?
I take the fact that these crooks are all worried about Trump as a good sign.
Just the way Trump denied it told me that there was something quite real about the pissing match they had. Somebody has the videos and that makes it likely that ‘somebody’ is going to get rich off them. Trouble is, the spook agencies won’t be exposing them because they are going to be Trump’s people after the 20th.
luv from Canada.
Russian people are not stupid.
Agitator here is America. Using NATO to provide Russian neighbours Ukraine Crimea and other countries to joing NATO in order to distabilised Russia.

I heard John Bolton saying on TV the other day that “Russia should stop interfering in the Middle East.”
