Democratic, GOP senators: Russian hacking ‘cannot become a partisan issue’
Trump vs. Congress on Russian hacking
The president-elect calls intelligence reports of election meddling ‘ridiculous.’ But prominent senators from both parties disagree.

“This cannot become a partisan issue,” Sens. John McCain and Chuck Schumer, along with Sens. Jack Reed and Lindsey Graham, said in a joint statement. “The stakes are too high for our country.”
Influential senators from both parties amplified calls for an independent investigation of Russian meddling in the U.S. election, setting up a clash with President-elect Donald Trump over U.S. policy toward Russia and potentially his pick for secretary of state.
