Conservative Republicans on Capitol Hill have begun pressing FBI counterintelligence and Pentagon security agents to take more active roles in the investigation of Washington's latest sex scandal.
What did these conservative Republicans do?
Sex and Security 
The Probe 
I see what you did there.
Ba dum tis
The Probe centers on the bizarre activities of Craig Spence, a well connected lobbyist who vanished recently
Vanishing is bizarre?  It happens thousands of times a day.  Like guys who don't want to pay child support.
after federal investigators linked him to a male prostitution ring that serviced government officials, 
Says who?  What gov officials?
Lawmakers are worried that the case may involve questions about national security because Spence has close ties to both the Japanese government, which paid him hundreds of thousands of dollars for lobbying work, and the People's Republic of China.
What close ties with China?  Does he eat at the Asian Wok a lot?
Indeed, so concerned were counterintelligence officials about the possibility that Spence may have been using prostitutes to blackmail government officials
Counterintelligence officials discuss such matters?
that when police raided the prostitution ring's headquarters,
Headquarters, huh?  Is that the corporate office?
a CIA officer is said to have accompanied them to help search for evidence.
Is said?  You don't say.
So far, however, the FBI and the Pentagon are resisting pressure to become more involved in the inquiry, which is being led by the Secret Service.
Since when do turf wars mean that one department begs another department to take over their stuff?
Sources say that the FBI and the Pentagon fear that the scandal could become too sordid.
The sources sources?  Or the FBI sources?  It's all so confusing.
