Some Republicans and Democrats want to join forces to probe and fight Russian interference in the U.S. political process. The senior lawmakers wrote that the "stakes are too high" for the issue to become partisan. The CIA recently concluded that Russia mounted a covert intelligence operation to influence the U.S. election to help Donald Trump win. Sen. Charles Schumer said the collective outrage at this should not be directed at any individual, but at foreign government. He also said "this gets to the wellspring of our democracy." Sens. John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Jack Reed all joined him in making this statement. The president-elect has repeatedly said he does not accept the findings of the spy agencies that he will soon lead.
