Republicans want special counsel to investigate Trump-Russia probe 'misconduct'

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A group of conservative Republicans, including some of U.S. President Donald Trump’s closest allies in Congress, on Tuesday demanded the appointment of a second special counsel to investigate the Department of Justice investigation into Trump’s campaign, Russia and the 2016 U.S. election.

At least 18 lawmakers support a resolution calling on U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions to appoint a special counsel to investigate what they describe as “misconduct” by the department and the FBI. A spokeswoman for the Department of Justice declined comment.



This just cracks me up. I think they need to find an outside source to investigate the DOJ and the FBI. Asking them to investigate each other or themselves, is just nuts.

Cohen's (Russian) business partner, Evgeny A. Friedman (known as the "Taxi King") agrees to cooperate with the government as a potential witness.

Bad news for Cohen? Trump? Or a nothingburger?

Rod rosenstein is the source of the corruption. The head of the snake. If he isn't in charge of the inv, there are less chances of ulterior motives.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Two Republican lawmakers, and no Democrats, are expected to attend a meeting scheduled for Thursday to review classified information relating to U.S. President Donald Trump’s suggestion the FBI might have used an informant to gather information on his 2016 election campaign, the White House said on Tuesday.

Trump’s closest conservative allies in Congress have been clamoring for access to the classified documents. The lawmakers have accused the FBI and Department of Justice of political bias against Trump in favor of Democratic former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during his successful presidential campaign.

The meeting attendees will be Representatives Devin Nunes, chairman of the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee, and Trey Gowdy, chairman of the House Oversight Committee, White House spokesman Sarah Sanders told the daily news briefing.

FBI Director Christopher Wray, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and Acting Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General Ed O’Callaghan are also expected to attend, she said.

Earlier on Tuesday, a group of Republican lawmakers called for the appointment of a second special counsel to investigate the probe into Trump’s campaign, Russia and the 2016 U.S. election, as Trump ramped up his own criticism of the Department of Justice.

At least 18 Republican lawmakers signed onto a resolution calling on U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions to appoint a special counsel to investigate the department and the FBI, accusing them of misconduct as Trump campaigned two years ago against Democrat Hillary Clinton.

Your tears are delicious.

How exactly do I advocate for bigger government? Simply because I think Trump is a tool is not an answer (and also does not mean I support Hillary, either - Hint: I don't).

Thats not the point. Everyone in the government is susceptible to corruption, ie: human nature. Hence why small gov is the only answer.

Social programs, wealth redistribution, regulated economies

Its all the same to your kind. You're narcissistic and you think you can do other people's lives better than they can
