GOP ready to step up spying case
By Morgan Chalfant - 04/28/19 07:57 PM EDT

GOP lawmakers returning to Washington are signaling they intend to step up their campaign to look into alleged spying by FBI agents on President Trump's 2016 campaign.

The effort comes as Democrats ramp up their own investigations into the Trump administration and could serve as a bit of GOP counterprogramming to put the spotlight on what Republicans contend is suspicious behavior under the Obama administration.

Two Senate chairmen previewed the coming GOP efforts with a recent letter to Attorney General William Barr, who raised eyebrows when he publicly asserted he believed the Trump campaign was spied on and said he would review the intelligence community’s actions to ensure no improper surveillance occurred.

Everyone involved with this coup attempt should face the death penalty.  Failure to make that the punishment will leave the door wide open for this to happen again.  And it most certainly will happen again.

I'd like to believe this, but I don't.

Any promulgation of potential criminal actions will have to come from the A.G.'s office independently, because I doubt Congressional Republicans are gonna offer much help.

Even if Mr. Barr actually dares to file charges, I expect the Republicans in Congress to then shrink away in horror, worried that they might actually have to "do something"...
