The Congressional Oath of Office - Those Covering Up Russian Interference Are Violating It

This is not a Republican versus Democratic issue. If you are covering up and suppressing evidence of foreign interference in the U.S. election, then you are violating the fundamental oath of your office.

http://history.house.gov/Institution/Origins-Development/Oath-of-Office/

I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

4. Anthem (Revised)

Our country isn't free,
It’s run by shameless greed,
Of this we see.

Land where the lawyers lie,
Land where the Congress hides,
And all us others pay the price,
Let’s fix this thing!

17. This could get very strange if those covering up get caught;

and the U.S., as a country—not a party—is actually able to do something about it!
