Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation

into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

if the FBI discovered that a staffer for Nunes,

who had worked for him for 20 years, had been spying for Russia.

And all Nunes did was quietly fire him and then keep it under wraps.

Now, this is Dianne Feinstein, a US Senator from California.

Turns out, one of her long-time staffers was allegedly a spy—

“The Chinese spy was Feinstein's driver for 20 years,

who also served as a gofer in her Bay Area office,

and who was a liaison to the Asian American community.

He even attended Chinese consulate functions for the Senator.”

the FBI came to Feinstein with this information,

thanks to this brief blurb in a Politico article.

was the Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.

A possible Chinese spy was close to a US senator

while she sat on a sensitive intelligence committee,

at any point that could be a political advantage

“You know anybody who sits on the House Intelligence Committee,

they all have a top secret security clearance and even higher,

and those people are all prime targets of opportunity.”

Now I'm not saying Dianne Feinstein is a spy

But I am saying, records show Feinstein had

very close dealings with the Chinese Communist Party.

everyone's favorite mass murder and natterjack toad—

And the two of them made sweet music together.

I wonder what future dictators sing at karaoke.

I thought it would be something like “Highway to Hell.”
