Republican senators press DOJ to probe Clinton and Ukraine

As President Donald Trump's presidency is threatened by an impeachment inquiry, the Republican chairmen of two Senate committees, Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley, are asking Attorney General William Barr to investigate any ties between Ukraine and Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign.

In a letter to Barr released on Monday, Johnson (R-Wis.) and Grassley (R-Iowa) pressed the Justice Department to probe any connection between Clinton and Ukrainian operatives. They said they have "concerns about foreign assistance in the 2016 election that have not been thoroughly addressed."

Their letter comes as Trump faces an impeachment inquiry from the House amid revelations that he sought help from Ukraine's president to probe former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading contender for the Democratic nomination. But these two Republicans say there's another story about government corruption allegations the Justice Department should be pursuing.

These guys are committee chairmen why don't they start their own investigation in the Senate? My guess is Mitch won't let them embarrass themselves with another Hillary investigation.

1. Continuation

of the GOP politicization of every bureau of government. DOJ behavior has become tragically criminal.

2. A lot to ask of Barr who is trying to defend himself.

4. This is just some hateful shit

This bastards know good and well that this is bs that originated in the far right blogospheres. They're just doing this to deflect from trump.

5. Why stop there?

I hear there was an failed money drop in Benghazi and they eventually made it in that pizza restaurant basement. Then Obama hired a bunch of undocumented workers to fill in the basement to make the republicans look stupid. Which is an insult because they are big boys who can do it all by themselves .



It isn’t funny because Barr is happy to investigate to try to divert attention from trumps extortion attempt. The targets of the investigation will suffer from the stress and incur legal expenses from the politically motivated bullsh@t.

They probably have no recourse but I hope they get to sue the DOJ and Barr personally for any bogus investigation.

6. Bring it on. NT

7. Criminal Barr?

At this point in time Barr needs to recuse himself. He is involved with the Ukraine matter . . . .

9. I think all the republicans

who are pushing hard to defend trump, have most likely gotten Russian money or Putin has their emails, which they never want released. If trump goes down he is going to take them all with him.

Good little GOPers trash everything we as a nation want to stand for.
