A secret tape recording of a fundraiser for 4th ranking GOP member of Congress Cathy McMorris Rogers captures her essentially admitting to the fact that House Republicans are primarily interested in protecting Trump from the Mueller probe, and not getting to the bottom of what Russia did in 2016.

While the public has suspected, even seen evidence of this for a long time now, it was quite breathtaking to hear such a high ranking member of congress essentially admitting that the majority party in Congress is essentially stonewalling a very serious investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. elections.

It also bolsters the charge that has been levelled at House Speaker Paul Ryan since the Mueller investigation began–that he sits idly by as Rep Devin Nunes and other House Republicans openly obstruct the Mueller investigation–abetts their conduct. With McMorris-Rogers admission, the public does not have to speculate anymore about Speaker Ryan’s actions/inactions. It appears obstructing Mueller probe is an agenda fully endorsed by House Speaker Paul Ryan and Rep Cathy McMorris-Rodgers–Congressional leaders.

This is very serious in that it does away with the widely held notion that there are a few wayward GOP characters in Congress (Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan et al) who are acting independently to obstruct Mueller probe/protect Trump and suggests the entire GOP leadership in Congress is onboard with Mueller probe obstruction.

Dems must take Rep Cathy McMorris Rogers to task and demand that she comes forward and explain her actions. The same must be done for Speaker Ryan. Bottom line it is highly unlikely that Rep McMorris-Rogers would go along with a plan to obstruct Mueller probe if Speaker Ryan wasn’t in on it.

Dems and indeed the mainstream media(still a major let down) must take McMorris-Rogers and Speaker Ryan to task regarding their shameful conduct because they are Congressional leaders who ought to know better. Put another way the media’s emphasis should notbe on Rep Devin Nunes, but on Congressional leaders McMorris-Rogers and Speaker Ryan.

On July 3, 2018 a bipartisan Senate Intel Committee concluded without any reservations that Russia did interfere in the 2016 elections to help Trump and his GOP. The bipartisan Senate Intel Committee essentially affirmed the conclusion of virtually all U.S. Intel agencies regarding Russian meddling in the 2016 elections so this was by no means “bombshell” news.

A few months earlier however a totally partisan House Intel Committee led by Rep Devin Nunes and Rep Mike Conaway abruptly concluded with the very strange finding that Russia did interfere, but not to help the Trump campaign–a totally bogus finding meant only to shield President Trump and hide the truth about Russian meddling from the American public.

Now that the Senate Intel Committee has come up with a credible report, these GOP members of Congress should be called out for their shameful actions. That a sitting member of the U.S. Congress would go out of their way to stonewall an investigation into a hostile foreign power(Russia) interfering with our elections is inexcusable. Even more troubling, some if not all of these GOP members of Congress are running for re-elections this Midterms 2018. One wonders why someone would aspire to be a member of the U.S. Congress when you are giving aid and comfort to the enemy–in this case our deadliest enemy.

Bottomline Dems should demand that the shameful GOP members of the House Intel Committee resign because their unpatriotic actions regarding TrumpRussia investigation render them unfit for office.
