GOP lawmaker: Top FBI officials will be subpoenaed
Source: Politico
A Republican on the House judiciary committee said Saturday he's gotten a commitment from committee chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) to subpoena top officials at the FBI and Justice Department in their ongoing inquiry into claims of bias against President Donald Trump.
Republicans have zeroed in on deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe, top counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok, FBI attorney Lisa Page, former associate deputy attorney general Bruce Ohr and his wife Nellie, who reportedly worked for Fusion GPS, the firm that compiled opposition research on Trump in 2016.
"Chairman Goodlatte has told us he is going to subpoena those individuals," said Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), in an appearance on Fox News' "Justice with Judge Jeanine."
Goodlatte's office declined comment earlier this week when asked if he was considering issuing subpoenas to those agents.

(7,947 posts)They're going to bring in all these smart, savvy people, many of them attorneys, and ask them stupid questions, and the GOP Congressmen will be shown to be stupid.
Then again, Clinton's Benghazi testimony showed most of us that she's smart and patient and cool, and yet Trey Gowdy is still vomiting up his venom.
