Here is speaker ryan on local talk radio. What im excited about is tom price who is a very close friend of mine. Tom price is one of the architects of replacing obamacare, of fixing health care.

Greg thanks, joe. Thats the smartest thing you have said in eight years. [applause] [applause] greg all right, the u. S. Intel report released friday directly accuse russian president Vladimir Putin of ordering a campaign to influence the election. I wish they told us this thursday we could have skipped listening to this. First we cannot say they did not change in the vote tallies or anything of that sort. We have no way of gauging the impact that certainly the Intelligence Community cant gauge the impact it had on choices the electorate made. Greg what is with this guy over here .

House this past week, but now the Ranking Member of the House Intelligence Committee is speaking out. Talked with cnn today. Where does their investigation go now . Well, one of the big things that both the house and Senate Intel Committees are trying to weigh is just how valuable Michael Flynn, the former National Security advisers testimony will be. Of course, the big bombshell at the end of the week is that flynn said he is willing to testify if he is granted immunity for that testimony. Hes offered this up to both of those committees.

His name is walter shoeb. He said he was not forced out of the Office Of Government Ethics. He basically says hes leaving because the u. S. Governmentestics rules are not Strong Enough to allow him to stand up to what this president and his family are doing so he is leaving his jb at the Office Of Government Ethics in order to try to strengthen the rules from the outside.
