the more the Republicans will own it. I can already see ways to attack my sitting representative on this issue (Blum).

Here is his joke about the DNC hacking. I hope our candidate shoves it up his butt.

When the majority wants this they hopefully can't ignore it any longer, the people are speaking finally, it can't be swept under the rug anymore.

Has been using every power of his office to dismantle and disrupt the government our taxes pay for since his first day.

It is obvious he is not working for the American people.

Apparently we don't have a CIA or FBI anymore because this has been going on for months and NOTHING is happening!

Clearly, Congress in the hands of the GOP is useless. We need phones ringing constantly and big marches to demand this is properly investigated.

Republicans only care about power and money, and an independent commission is contrary to those objectives. It ain't gonna happen.

that makes some people want congress to investigate over an independent commission? Are they repukes who want partisanship to play a role? Are they people who want to believe in our institutions and feel that an independent commission means congress has failed? I just don't understand why anyone would be against an independent commission.

That's pretty good, I'd say. Of course, this will be dismissed by President Trump as one of those "fake" polls and the popular media will simply accept that and try to move on.

Let's not let them, okay? Keep calling your elected officials (even the Republicans), and remind them that 73% of Americans want this looked into to ensure the integrity of our elections from hostile foreign interference.
