Rep Lee Zeldin (R-NY) just announced he will be leading a Special Order on the House Floor Monday night at 7 PM EST detailing a case for a second Special Counsel to be appointed to investigate Obama’s FISA abuse.

Zeldin also wants to know how/why the Clinton probe ended and how/why the Trump-Russia investigation began.

At the time of publication, 5 Freedom Caucus members are confirmed speakers for Monday night’s Special Order on the House floor.

Rep. Lee Zeldin tweeted: Tonight, sometime in 7PM hour, I’ll be leading a Special Order on House Floor, joined by other Members, detailing case for a 2nd Special Counsel to be appointed re FISA Abuse, how/why Clinton probe ended & Trump-Russia probe began.

5 Freedom Caucus members will be joining Zeldin: Confirmed Speakers for tonight’s Special Order on House Floor detailing case for 2nd Special Counsel include @RepMarkMeadows @Jim_Jordan @RepMattGaetz @RepTenney & @replouiegohmert. Stay tuned for further updates & watch live sometime in 7PM hour

In late February, Rep Lee Zeldin (R-NY) sent a letter to AWOL Attorney General Jeff Sessions urging him appoint a Special Counsel to investigate FISA abuses and how/why Hillary’s probe ended and Trump’s Russia probe began.

The letter reads (partial transcript):

As you know, evidence has come to light that raises serious concerns about decisions and activities by leadership at the highest levels of the DOJ and FBI regarding how and why the Clinton probe ended and how and why the Trump Russia probe began. Additionally, important questions have been raised with regards to FISA warrants targeting U.S. citizen Carter Page. We write you to urge you today to appoint a Special Counsel to investigate these decisions and activities.

Initially 13 GOP Reps total signed Zeldin’s letter.

In late March, Rep Lee Zeldin announced House Majority Whip Steve Scalise and GOP House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy both signed his letter demanding a second special counsel.

AG Sessions appointed a special prosecutor named John Huber to investigate Obama’s FISA abuse.

There has already been more then enough to warrant an SC. Sessions is the gatekeeper and continues to block it. I don’t see that changing. Maybe he and Roseweasel will work up a statement explaining why no SC is needed while they are having dinner tonight.

Accuse your opponent of what you are guilty of. Collusion, meddling, and sabotaging a presidential election and impede him and destroy his allies once in office, all acts committed and caught red handed.

By our own people in government, not some foreign Russians.

Obama / Clintons arrange to kill any Clinton investigation and Comey claims outrage when Trump asks Comey if he can move on past the Flynn thing after being fired?

Wow! That's some selective outrage........

No Special Counsel. Huber should get indictments and trials.
Congressional hearings have been ridiculous. Nobody important gets prosecution.
MAGA - get the winning going again
