House Oversight Dems: GOP blocking request for Trump admin records

House Oversight Dems: GOP blocking request for Trump admin records
BY BRETT SAMUELS - 03/15/18 04:42 PM EDT

Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee said Thursday that committee Republicans are blocking efforts to get documents from the Trump administration necessary for an investigation into the White House’s use of private emails and private jets.

Democrats told Reuters on Thursday that committee Republicans blocked requests during a committee meeting for the panel to consider, debate and vote on 13 motions to subpoena various documents and testimony.

Those documents reportedly relate to the White House’s security clearance policy, as well as Trump officials’ use of private planes and private email accounts.

In particular, Democrats on the panel are interested in White House senior adviser Jared Kushner's testimony about his actions prior to having his security clearance downgraded from "top secret" to "secret," Reuters reported.

This is why America is in such great peril now.

The republicans will stonewall and obstruct at every turn.

Our only hope is Mueller and a massive blue wave election this fall.
