Mondays House Intelligence Committee hearing was devoted to Russian interference in the U.S. election, including potential ties between President Donald Trumps allies and Russian officials. But the committee's Republican chairman made sure to get in some questions about Hillary Clinton.
If this committee or anyone else for that matter, someone from the public, comes with information to you about the Hillary Clinton campaign, or their associates, or someone from the Clinton Foundation, will you add that to your investigation?

He's just been paying his dues until his elevation to this prominent Intel job. NOW - some public scrutiny BEYOND his district might bring a clearer focus on him - like an ant on a sunny day - under a magnifying glass!
