Now can demand 'records and testimony' of many Obama administration officials

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., on Thursday was given the authority to subpoena dozens of former members of the Obama administration who were involved in the Russia collusion investigation.

The Obama Justice Department's probe of the now-debunked collusion claim, which included illegitimate spying on the Trump campaign, led to the special counsel probe of Robert Mueller, which couldn't find sufficient evidence of collusion.

Johnson has explained that dozens of leaks of national security information fueled the "Russia narrative, first of Russia helping Trump and then, all of a sudden, the Trump campaign colluding with Russia, which set up a special counsel, even though, by the end of January, the FBI knew full, full well that there was nothing to that hoax, that they still allowed a special counsel to be set up in May of that year."

No power. No impact.

An infant screaming has the same power.

They are running out the Clock on Trump.

Look how fast the Dems moved on a fake complaint.

This is camouflage for the Republicans that want Trump out, but can’t say it.

Remember Boehner and Obama?

Secretly meeting.

I hope someone spills the beans on some of the big O’s illegal actions while president and he has to flee the US never to be seen again.

Hmmm... perhaps this move by Senator Johnson and also Sinator linda (maybe) will pressure Durham to hurry up.

We must remember that the Senate can call all the witnesses it wants, but cannot do anything legally.

Both parties conspired to put an ineligible usurper in office in direct violation of the Constitution.
That’s why the GOP has been covering for the usurper.

That’s as likely as them admitting that they failed to honor their oath to the Constitution and allowed a non-natural born citizen to be sworn in.
They will continue to cover for him because they have to cover their own complicity.

However, they can turn over information to the DOJ and recommend that charges be filed.
