Report alleges the House Intelligence Committee failed to investigate a stunning number of leads before closing its Russia investigation

The House Intelligence Committee voted along party lines on Thursday to release its Republican majority's report on the Russia investigation, therefore concluding the probe.

But a new report from a Democrat-aligned group shows the committee failed to investigate a slew of leads, and claims the Republican majority on the committee should not have closed their inquiry so soon — echoing Democrats on the committee.

The Center for American Progress' Moscow Project, which has been closely documenting events of interest to investigators in the Russia probe, identified 70 known contacts between Trump officials and "Russia-linked operatives," 22 of which were meetings between the two sides.

According to the report, the 12 people who had such contacts with Russians were:

• Lawyer Michael Cohen
• Former campaign political adviser Roger Stone
• Trump's son Donald Trump Jr.
• Attorney General Jeff Sessions
• Former campaign manager Paul Manafort
• Former national security director J.D. Gordon
• White House senior adviser Jared Kushner
• Former foreign policy adviser Carter Page
• Former White House national security adviser Michael Flynn
• Private-security entrepreneur Erik Prince
• Former foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos
• Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci

All three people who headed Trump's campaign — former campaign chairman Paul Manafort, former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, and counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway — reportedly had knowledge of these contacts.

Is there anything on the planet more useless the these "reports' that come from congress? They are always 100% partisan. They are read meat for the faithful, nothing more.

That doesn't necessarily mean there is nothing to be gleaned from them.

True, we gleaned that you're incredibly gullible.
