2. This is why an independent investigation is crucial. Ryan's appalling admission

that he places his own partisan interests above the security and future of our nation is scandalous and in better times would have disqualified him from office. He can try all he wants to minimize the damage and normalize selling out national security to a hostile foreign power, but this is not going to be swept under the rug. "Stonewalling" was a word that was used in the Watergate era. How did that work out for the GOP president?
