The Senator made one point that the investigation was begun under Republicans of this dossier. The Mueller report and the Mueller aspect of this was begun under Republicans, but the actual investigation--the promoting, the passing around of the fake Russian dossier--occurred under President Obama's administration. What we need to discover and what we do not yet know is, Was President Obama involved? Was this done for partisan purposes? Was this done to try to elect Hillary Clinton? Was this done with mal intent? We need to know the truth, and to get to the truth, we need not only the Mueller report, but we need every ounce of information about the people at the very top of our intelligence community who were promoting the inclusion of this fake dossier that most American media outlets had discounted as unverifiable and that turned out to be unverifiable. We based this investigation on a lie. We should investigate who the liars were. I object. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. The Senator from Minnesota.
