Sen. Whitehouse: Republicans and Dems Are on the Same Page to Get Comey to Testify

‘I think we’re certainly on the same page as to wanting to get Comey before our subcommittee or the full committee’

RUSH EXCERPT:
BLITZER: "As you know, moving forward with a formal charge of obstruction of justice, that would require a major, major shift on the part of Republicans. Are you and the Republicans, at least your colleagues on your judiciary subcommittee, Lindsey Graham, who is your chairman on the same page."
WHITEHOUSE: "I think we're certainly on the same page as to wanting to get Comey before our subcommittee or the full committee if the full committee will act and to getting all of the documents, and that at the full committee, both the ranking member Dianne Feinstein and chairman grassley have signed off on. We sent the letter today asking for all of those notes and records, and I think we're also both ready to go on the rosenstein/bente hearing to look where the case is and whether a special counsel would appropriate and what safeguards there should be in place for that so we've kind of been the little subcommittee that could can, and we're ready to go again and these are important questions that belong in the Judiciary Committee."
