Wolf Blitzer to Swalwell: Do Democrats ‘Risk a Backlash’ By Continuing Investigations?
EXCERPT:
BLITZER: "So if you pursue this, do you think a lot of Americans will think you are going too far? Do you risk in other words a backlash?"
SWALWELL: "No, Again, I respect what Bob Mueller did. I think Congress and the American people should see it. I’ll just point out to Senator Graham that I reached out to him over two years ago when I wanted to have an independent commission to take all of this outside of Congress and have experts and statespersons look at this rather than have a politically charged Washington do it. He didn't take me up on that offer. I only got two Republicans to sponsor my legislation. I've always thought that an independent commission is the best way to secure our ballot box and make sure we are not attacked by the Russians again."
