U.S. Senate Democrats on Wednesday asked the Securities and Exchange Commission’s inspector general to investigate reports that Commissioner Michael Piwowar “may have abused his position” to pressure Citigroup Inc. after the lender took a stance to tighten gun sales.

Citigroup in March put restrictions on new retail business clients that sell guns to require that customers pass background checks after the deadly Parkland, Florida high school shooting, drawing the ire of the U.S. gun lobby.

“Recent news reports indicate that the Commissioner ‘castigat them for straying into social policy’ while ‘glowering and speaking emphatically’ about guns,” the senators said in a letter.

Uh oh...somebody "glowered" and "spoke emphatically."  Stop the presses and roll out the Subpoenas. 

Somebody get Mueller on the horn, this sounds like that Trump fella is on the loose.
