In the indictment, one of the Russian troll farms working to interfere in the election gave instructions to use any opportunity to criticize Hillary and the rest (except Sanders and Trumpwe support them).
Ryan was reportedly concerned that the members focus on these issues distracts from the fundamental issue of securing American elections in the future. He directed the members to stick to the facts about the investigation, rather than get mired in debates about the details.
Nevertheless, many Republican committee members, including Rep. Will Hurd (R-TX), Rep. Chris Stewart (R-UT) and Rep. Peter King (R-NY), have declared that they think the CIA and other intelligence agencies got this one wrong. While they agree that the Russians were trying to hurt Clintons chances for victory, they dont believe the Kremlin was backing Trump. Other Republicans on the committee agree with the intelligence committee, according to Politico.
The mixed messaging and dubious conclusions are a public embarrassment, and any report the House Intelligence Committee ends up producing will have little credibility. These fractures among House Republicans reveal a party not unified in how far it is prepared to go to back Trump.
