GOP Senators Investigate the FBI
Seemingly taking a cue from President Trump, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley plans to hear testimony from Michael Horowitz, the Justice Department’s inspector general. The hearing, recently rescheduled from Monday to June 11, is to examine the president’s oft-tweeted charges that FBI and its dismissed deputy director, Andrew McCabe, improperly investigated Trump and helped opponent Hillary Clinton by not prosecuting her. Meanwhile, D.C. U.S. Attorney’s Office investigators reportedly interviewed dismissed FBI director James Comey on whether McCabe lied to federal agents, and are considering the possibility of filing charges against the ex-lawman.
