Unfortunately, leaders on whom we counted to protect us have put their loyalty to Trump – whose campaign is under criminal and counterintelligence investigations – over their duty to their country. After lying to the Senate, Sessions has had to recuse himself from all criminal investigations involving Russia’s ties to the 2016 election campaign ...

... In the House, our chairman and Trump transition team member Devin Nunes seems to be running his own intelligence service, receiving classified information regarding our investigation and exclusively briefing it to the president. And now he has cancelled Tuesday’s open hearing – where witnesses had already submitted testimony to the committee – proposing instead to have future hearings conducted in secret.

Enough.

Nearly every Republican leader we have counted on to demonstrate impartiality has failed. The FBI’s important work will continue, but its honest progress is threatened by an executive branch severely penetrated by Russian influence. The House’s investigation is on life support, as the chairman refuses to share with his own committee members the intelligence he is briefing to the president.
