Trump attorneys want second special counsel to investigate investigators: report

By Mallory Shelbourne - 12/12/17 08:06 AM EST

Attorneys for President Trump would like a new special counsel to be appointed to probe the individuals who are currently investigating the president, Axios reported early Tuesday.

"The Department of Justice and FBI cannot ignore the multiple problems that have been created by these obvious conflicts of interests. These new revelations require the appointment of a Special Counsel to investigate,” one of Trump’s lawyers, Jay Sekulow, told the news outlet.

Axios’s Mike Allen reported that the call for a second special counsel comes after Fox News published an article on Monday that said the wife of an official in the Justice Department was employed by Fusion GPS, the opposition firm behind the controversial Trump dossier, during the campaign.

Now we're adding cost, because it's getting too expensive? Just gets dumber and dumber.
