That's what I would like to think...

Where IS Obama on this?

(From The Guardian article)
"..it is unclear if or when the White House will follow through on the elaboration it's Democratic allies seek."

Why "is it unclear if or when the White House will follow through on the elaboration it's Democratic allies seek."?

On October 7, top U.S. intelligence officials warned that "the Russians were attempting to 'interfere' in the election."

Why didn't Obama do something then?

Why did he allow Putin, the Russian hackers, and WikiLeaks to make sure that Donald Trump won the election?

Bob Somerby (The Daily Howler) is doing an extended cogent analysis of the failure of the media to address the egregious, unprecedented, malicious interference of the FBI director in an American presidential election.

Here's his take down of MSNBC's coverage in July.

What's the status on the letter that was sent to President Obama to declassify the impact Russia had on our election?

SNIP -

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.

Wed Dec 7, 2016, 08:39 PM

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.
