WASHINGTON — In one of their final acts in the House majority, Republicans released a letter on Friday urging their Senate counterparts to pick up their politically charged inquiry into the handling of the F.B.I.’s investigations of President Trump’s campaign and Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, and called again for the appointment of a special counsel to study the matter.
Detailing some of their findings, the chairmen of the House Judiciary and Oversight Committees said it appeared to them that the F.B.I. had treated the Trump and Clinton cases differently, cutting Mrs. Clinton and her associates crucial breaks while assigning agents who privately exchanged reams of messages bashing Mr. Trump to investigate his campaign’s links to Russia.
“It is not the discovery of bias that is so destructive to fairness, it is the existence of it,” the chairmen, Robert W. Goodlatte of Virginia and Trey Gowdy of South Carolina, wrote of the officials.
They also used the letter to resurface Republicans’ contested charge that the F.B.I. abused sensitive surveillance powers to spy on a former Trump campaign associate believed to be compromised by Russia.

Like the fact that she needs to be locked up?
Has any investigation by democrats been called “politically charged” ever?
Yeah, all those hillary-voting ‘republican’ senators will get right on it /s
The NYT working diligently to get the award for sedition.
The fact that Clinton is not in prison is absolutely insane.
The assertion that they are trying to keep anything alive is ludicrous.
They had their chance to do the right thing and pretty much ignored it.
Sure they do. They are very happy to hand the gavel to Dems so the whole investigation can be swept under the rug. It was dead before it ever got started despite mountains of clear evidence of massive law breaking by the Deep State to elect NRC and then destroy Trump.
“The fact that Clinton is not in prison is absolutely insane.”
Yes it is...and they[clintons] still have their charity fraud foundation up and running.

“it appeared to them” - of course it wouldn’t “appear to NYT”.
2 tweets from the writer about this story and no-one comments. it’s a taboo topic for NYT. Fandos’s main Twitter page tells you all about NYT bias:
TWEETS: Nicholas Fandos

Yeah; Goodlatte and Gowdy. If they cared, they’d not have wimped out and decided to step down from their positions. They’re not old. They could have stayed in the House and helped to take out the trash. Big talk. They can GTH.
The DOJ, the FBI and the Obama crew got away with their attempted coup and the ongoing “insurance” policy. The truth will never see the light of day. Stop hoping for it.
Which one?
Both.
There is no indication, now or before, that anyone was serious about investigating Hillary for anything. Her combination of intimidation and eradication is too powerfull.
Clinton not in jail is NOT insane, it is criminal
And the criminals are Lynch, Comey, McCabe, and many others in the DOJ
This was all led by the Chief criminal in the White House, Hussein Obama.
If some tells me “no one is above the law” I laugh as loud as I can in their faces.
If one reads the letter, Gowdy and Goodlatte sent it to McConnell, Whitaker and Horowitz. So it looks like the ball is in AG Whitaker’s court. Will he do something or be another Sessions? When the top dogs at the DOJ and the FBI are crooked we need Whitaker to appoint a Special Counsel, since they would not be able to investigate themselves.
Don't count on it.
Yea. It's a waste of time to think the total corrupt D.C. swamp would do anything for the people i.e. natural citizens.
