共和党众议院情报常设特别委员会主席Mike Turner讲, 俄罗斯的宣传,已经渗透到众议院的共和党同僚里面,“我们看到直接来自俄罗斯……反乌克兰和亲俄罗斯信息的通讯,其中一些我们甚至听到在众议院发言”, "We see directly coming from Russia ... communications that are anti-Ukraine and pro-Russia messages, some of which we even hear being uttered on the House floor," Turner, chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said in an interview on CNN's "State of the Union."
共和党众议员外交委员会主席Michael McCaul,也讲,“不幸的是,俄罗斯的宣传已经进入美国,并感染了我党的很大一部分base"。McCaul, a Texas Republican, told Puck News that he thinks "Russian propaganda has made its way into the United States, unfortunately, and it’s infected a good chunk of my party’s base."
