It seems that they did - the claimed at one point that they direct access to information at WikiLeaks before it came out. There was hacking involved, which is illegal, and if the Trump people were involved in any of this they might have broken laws.

This is ridiculous, utterly ridiculous. We invested Benghazi nine times even though we knew there was no wrong doing. We also invested Hillary's email even though we knew there was no wrong doing. In both cases we knew there was no legal case. Here we have a lot of evidence of Russian involvement in our election yet no investigation. And please do not tell me we do not have evidence of this - the United States government has slapped sanctions on Russia for this, and now a top member of the Trump administration has stepped out. We now for a fact Russia interfered with our election, and we know for a fact that the Trump people were in touch with both the Russians and Wikileaks during the election.

We must investigate this to the fullest extent of the law. This is not about politics, nor is it about removing Trump from office. It's about Russia directly interfering with our election.
