The House Judiciary Committee unanimously approved legislation demanding more details from the DOJ on the obstruction of justice investigation into Donald Trump
Republicans have long argued that McCabe was part of a corrupt group of Justice Department officials who leveraged their investigative powers to undermine Trump, and they have been seeking information about McCabe and Rosenstein’s interactions for months. McCabe was fired from the FBI hours before he was set to retire last year after the inspector general of the Justice Department determined he lied to investigators about his interactions with media.
“The path forward requires us to identify the origins of an investigation that deceitfully undermined America’s faith in our democracy and distracted us from our actual enemy,” Collins said. Democrats have argued the GOP inquiries were really efforts to undermine the investigations into Trump. But following Mueller’s report they sensed a moment to embrace the GOP call for information as part of their broader call for more details from the Justice Department.
