Schumer: Trump W.H. Knew for Weeks Flynn Misled Pence

‘I hope our Republican colleagues will join us in this call, because the crisis here rises above party’

EXCERPT:

SCHUMER: "Was General Flynn directed or authorized to do what he did? What was the extent of his conversations and contacts with Russia? Who else from the Trump administration, transition, or campaign had contact with the Russians? And why wasn’t general Flynn fired as soon as the administration found out? Why did they act only when they were caught misleading the media. These are just a few of the questions that need to be answered. And these questions shouldn’t just apply to General Flynn, but to senior official in the Trump campaign, transition, and administration. Every one of these questions should be applied to all them as well. There needs to be an independent and transparent investigation because the White House knew for weeks that General Flynn misled the vice president."
