Electors demand intelligence briefing before Electoral College vote
By KYLE CHENEY and GABRIEL DEBENEDETTI 12/12/16 10:13 AM EST Updated 12/12/16 11:28 AM EST

Ten members of the Electoral College, including Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi’s daughter Christine and a former member of Congress, are demanding a briefing from U.S. intelligence officials on any ongoing investigations into Donald Trump’s ties to Russia.

In a letter to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, the electors — nine Democrats and one Republican — argue that they require the information ahead of Dec. 19, when the Electoral College is set to meet and select the next president.

4. I honestly believe that 270 electoral college human beings have no empathy

for this country/democracy/republic ---------------none, they just don't care, they want a nut job serial predator as president, that can be blackmailed from a state actor's (Russia) so that they can get what they want, a plutocracy with tad of oligarchy/ authoritarianism and yes men and woman for greed and self serving on the national treasury

All wrapped in there head, they just don't care

5. It's not just the Republican electors

It's the whole god-damned republican party and some Dems too, who are venal and corrupted by money and power. The Republican party is a vast criminal enterprise to create & maintain corporate monopolies, tax-free and regulation free environments, as low labor costs as possible, and as much tax payer money as possible to fund their research and development. Wake up Americans! Progressves better start getting their act together, working together before the American Fascists start rounding us up and shutting us down.
