Powerful new Democratic chairman vows to pursue cabinet officials who 'abused' their posts and investigate Trump for acting 'in his own financial self-interest'

Rep. Elijah Cummings is in line to chair the House Oversight Committee

He was one of a number of Democrats empowered by the party takeover He has pursued Trump's ownership of a DC hotel but without power Now he wants to probe cabinet officials 'across the government' Vowed to combat 'waste, fraud and abuse' Called for both sides to accept 'mandate'

A newly-empowered House Democratic committee chairman vowed on Wednesday to probe efforts by President Donald Trump for using his post to pursue what he called his own 'financial self-interest.'

Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland issued the warning shot at Trump and his administration Wednesday hours after Democrats sealed their takeover.

Cummings has hounded the Trump administration on issues ranging from cabinet scandals for jet use to Trump's ownership of a luxury D.C. hotel, but with little ability to force disclosure without cooperation from Republicans.

Now, blasting oversight he called 'nonexistent', he is vowing to go ahead and probe Trump's decisions to act in his own 'self-interest.'

Trump acting in his own financial self-interest?

This statement coming from a corrupt democrat.

Didn’t President Trump’s net worth decline by $2 billion since his swearing in?

These motherf*#!er’s can’t help themselves. I must admit, watching these idiots implode over the next two years will be entertaining.
