Should Obama testify before Senate Intelligence Committee?
The Senate Intelligence Committee should call former President Obama to testify about knowledge he had the decisions he made about whether or not to go public about the degree of Russian attempts to elect Donald Trump as president. Newsweek reports that, last summer, FBI Director James Comey sought to go public about Russian efforts to influence the American election and that his suggestion was shot down at a White House meeting. According to the Newsweek story, Comey wanted to write an op-ed for a newspaper such as The New York Times that would have included virtually the same information about Russian election interference that was later publicly revealed in early January. Obama was urged several times to take more aggressive action against the Russian interference in our election, but refused. Comey was criticized for a double standard in going public about the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email scandal, but not going public about the Russia investigation. Comey's intervention shortly before the election about Clinton was disgraceful and disastrous. If he wanted to go public earlier about Russia but was overruled by Obama, that would be equally disgraceful and equally disastrous. The Senate Intelligence Committee should ask President Obama what he knew about Russia, what he did and did not do about Russia, and why. |

If they follow that up by demanding to know the same from the President who hasn't done anything at all about it for the first six months of his Presidency, I'd support that.

Even if the Russians didn't have any involvement in the election they must be laughing there butts off at the west. Every country is saying there has been Russian involvement! I couldn't tell you either way but playing it out in public is making us look stupid! But I guess the media are doing well out of it as usual! !

They are interested in Obama and Lynch's actions during the last six months of his term. Seems Obama's been caught in a lie....again. |
