Dec 2016

Seven Senators have asked President Obama to declassify additional information about the Kremlin's possible involvement.

From November 30 article in The Atlantic:
http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/11/senators-probe-for-details-on-russian-involvement-in-election/509249/

As far as what Reps Swalwell and Cummings are proposing now:
"legislation that would create a bi-partisan, independent commission that would investigate whether there was foreign interference in the 2016 presidential election"

The Republican-controlled Congress won't go for it....Period!

The GOP is absolutely giddy about Trump's win, and they don't give a damn about HOW he won, even if it was with help from a foreign entity.
