A Senate subcommittee is taking up the White House’s call to investigate the veracity of President Trump’s claim that former President Obama ordered the wiretapping of Trump Tower during the 2016 campaign. [/size][/font][/size]Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), the heads of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Crime and Terrorism, sent a letter Wednesday afternoon to the Department of Justice requesting evidence of, “any warrant applications and court orders...related to wiretaps of President Trump, the Trump Campaign, or Trump Tower.”
“He’s challenged Congress to do something about it,” Graham told CBS News referring to Trump. “I accept that challenge, and I expect the FBI Director and Department of Justice to notify us if this warrant was obtained.”[/color]
