How did we ever allow our country to decline to this pathetic state it has become?

[betsyburns]

This guy here is arrogant and thinks he is above the law. He is one that should go to jail.

[kyle]

Contempt of Senate? They dont have a right to not answer. They should be compelled or held in jail until they are willing to answer. In open session.

[elizabethteran]

How can this department not be accountable to anyone?!

[hyperslowgungamer]

How is it these people are not being arrested right there in front of us for treason?

[reaality]

This is not only disgraceful but acting against the U.S. Constitution. Any government agency refusing oversight, or working against the Constitution, should immediately be defunded.

[gzvojue]

Thank you for standing up for the American people

[Berdymadafakas]

I feel like if Congress asked me underoath if I had something I would be forced to tell them the truth or I would be in handcuffs

[Freedomad]

Every Republican today should be standing up for our country!

[markburton]

FBI refusing to answer questions to congress who has right of oversite should be fired.

[LindaMedley-ymqc]

Anyone who doesn't answer questions when they go in front of the Senate needs to be put in jail for contempt

[davelamb]

If we cant force them to answer questions for transparency then they are a power to their own!!! They can do whatever the hell they want!! They were GIVEN this power by the very people they refuse to answer🤮🤮

[rah]

Why don’t they hold people in “Contempt of Congress” until they actually answer the questions and put them in jail until they actually do.

[tonyaosier]

The dude answering NO QUESTIONS needs to be fired

[ClaireJordan-tnnz]

They accused me of lying about the torture I dealt. I went to the FBI crying. And no one will help me

[robertmayer]

Every time one of these FBI clowns refuses to answer a question asked by Congress, $1 million needs to be deducted from their budget.

[davidbridges]

As Richard Nixon said, "The American people deserve to know if their President is a crook."

[sharonerwin]

Thank you Senator Cruz for standing up for the American people. Dont stop we need you.

[jtac]

Sen. Cruze is EXACTLY right....Americans have the RIGHT to know what the FBI is doing! They have elevated themselves above Congress....Above the law...and Above the American People!

[soulman.]

If the FBI didn't have the 17 recordings, they would simply say no.
