I was shocked that this Right Wing Republican former Congressman would come out as aggressively as he did about the Russian possible ‘hacking’ of our election. Joe Walsh?
Former Congressman Joe Walsh was a hot head. He was, obnoxious, and disrespectful towards the President of the United States. Suffice it to say I was surprised at his take on the most recent ‘scandal.’ The Democratic National Committee Russian hacking is back in the news, and it seems to be much deeper than one thought.
The Washington Post released a report that highlighted that the CIA discovered links between WikiLeaks and Russian operatives. I blogged about Joy-Ann Reid’s coverage of it on her AM Joy program today. So far Republicans Senators John McCain, Bob Corker, and Lindsey Graham, or on board for hearings.
Well hear is Joe in his tweets.
Joe Walsh urging his Party to take Russian meddling in election seriously
CIA says Russia messed with our election to try and help Trump win.
Congress should investigate right now. https://t.co/Y2z8A0BInL

Congressional Republicans, the evidence of Russia tampering with our election is too great now to ignore.
Investigate.
Do the right thing.

Yes voter fraud is a big problem & we need Voter ID, but come on guys, a foreign government messing with our elections?
Can't be tolerated

Rob, don't stop baiting me. I respect your take. This Russia thing is bad & the Republicans better investigate. It should piss us ALL off. https://t.co/hZRXN3nd8r

It will be utterly disgraceful if Republicans & Conservatives keep their mouths shut in the wake of what the CIA is saying about Russia.

Hey @SpeakerRyan & @SenateMajLdr, is it ok for Russia to mess with our elections?
Do you agree with @realDonaldTrump that the CIA is lying?
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
Republican silence will be tantamount to treason.
Call 4 an investigation. Foreign governments can't pick our President.#RussianHackers
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
If there was evidence that the Russians helped Hillary win, my fellow conservatives would be yelling for an investigation.#RussianHackers
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
I never agree with @chuckschumer but he's correct on this one. Where is his Republican colleague joining his call? https://t.co/bKEolLmQvi

NBC reports Trump has picked Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson as Sec of State.
He's a good buddy of Putin's. https://t.co/tsYmGmjacD

So wait…the CIA says Russia messed with our election to help Trump win and Trump attacks…the CIA?
Not Russia? He goes after the CIA?
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
The protests, the harassing electors, the recounts…that's all "not accepting the election result" bullshit.
But Russia? That's a big deal
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
Where is the Republican outrage today?
Where?
This isn't a partisan issue. It's an American issue.#RussianHackers
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
Call me naive, but the one person who should call for an investigation is Trump.
No foreign country should ever mess with OUR elections.
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
There's evidence Russia messed around with our election, but cuz our guy won, people on my side are ok with that?
That's so fucking wrong.
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
Go back. I yelled about this Russian interference a whole bunch during the campaign. As well as Wikileaks. As well as James Comey. https://t.co/USaybYVYcJ
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) December 10, 2016
I would. But he blocked me on Twitter. Doubt he'd take my call. https://t.co/YuxZZUkfYs

So……………..we got a real problem if our soon to be President sides with Russia over our own intelligence agencies.
Hello.
