4. Is it Treason to try to hide Treason?

Nunes, McConnell, and Ryan all knew about Russia's trying to rig the election

All about CYA and masking the real story.

5. That along with the bombing & it may have worked.

We'll see when Congress gets back if there is anymore investigation. The media has already moved on, so it's only a matter of time before the citizenry forgets about it, too.

9. Every single thing that happened in/around the WH last week was to accomplish this end.

That's all that Drumpf really cares about, getting his Russia mission back on track and that can't happen when everyone thinks he and pootie colluded to that end. He has to get the investigation stalled and delegitimized. In Drumpf parlance, that means it's distraction time and that's all he did last week. Distract with Susan Rice lies, distract with Syrian missile lies, distract with so-called chemical attacks and film children hurting, dying, distract with Russia and Syrian tough talk when really they are laughing their asses off.
