Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday it's "highly likely" the panel will investigate what Flynn might have discussed with Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak.
"I think the fundamental question for us is what is our involvement in it, and who ought to look at it," McConnell said. "And the intelligence committee is already looking at Russian involvement in our election. As Sen. [Roy] Blunt has already indicated, it is highly likely they will want to take a look at this episode as well. They have the broad jurisdiction to do it."

CIA broke the law to take out its critic General Flynn
By Thomas Lifson
Make no mistake, we have just witnessed an operation by members of the CIA to take out a high official of our own government. An agency that is widely believed to have brought down democratically elected governments overseas is now practicing the same dark arts in domestic American politics. Almost certainly, its new head Mike Pompeo was not consulted.
Senator Chuck Schumer, of all people, laid out on January 2nd what was going to happen to the Trump administration if it dared take on the deep state – the permanent bureaucracy that has contempt for the will of the voters and feels entitled to run the government for its own benefit:
New Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday that President-elect Donald Trump is “being really dumb” by taking on the intelligence community and its assessments on Russia’s cyber activities.
“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow.
“So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he’s being really dumb to do this.”
