What's extraordinary about it?

Didn't the Washington Post already break the story?

Trump's supposed to do what? Say "oh, OK, no prob, I'm sure you had a good reason" ?

So far Kevin Nunes has been one of the few interested in this gigantic swamp of criminals. Hopefully he gets what he needs to allow a prosecution.

If it’s done by Democrats, of course it’s a ruse.
