At long last there is a chance that some kind of investigation will be held into the crimes committed by high level Democrats not just in the run up to the election, but also spreading further back to the “Russian Uranium” scandal.
Judiciary Committee Republicans voted 16 to 13 to start gathering documents with a view to assigning a second Special Counsel. The focus of the investigation is to be Hillary Clinton, Loretta Lynch and James Comey, and there are a lot of questions that need answering. As Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.), said “We have a lot more than a blue dress now.”
The call for an investigation appears to have been a fairly secretive plan. The Democrats seemed shocked to realize that they had just played into the Republican’s hands and ended up in a Committee that they hadn’t planned on.

YES! Perfect job for Rudy....the time for his most significant contribution to his country has arrived.
Wake up Doubting Thomas Freepers. Things are starting to pick on the judicial front. First the letter to Sessions requesting a second Special Council and now this announcement that the House Judiciary Committee will be conducting their own investigation. And don’t forget last weeks testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee. Very damaging to the Dems. Very damaging to the Trump-Russia narrative.
This will add to the pressure on Sessions who I expect will stall at least short term any decision on the second Special Council but leave the door open. That’s not all bad. I would probably do the same thing. But we need a decision in weeks not months. 2018 is just around the corner and I’ve got a pile of surplus orange jump suits I need to sell.
The idea is to appoint a special counsel:
Judiciary Committee Republicans voted 16 to 13 to start gathering documents with a view to assigning a second Special Counsel.
They won’t do anything.
I wish I had any confidence anything was going to come from this but I don’t.
Bread and circuses.
“Gathering documents” LMAO. Our government is a joke and a complete waste. The USA needs a do over as the republic as we know it and founded is almost over.
.
Actually, this sounds like a cover tactic for Sessions inaction.
They’re just trying to keep our attention on their circus while Sessions continues to do nothing.
Not holding my breath for any real action.

>> “They won’t do anything.” <<
I suspect that you’re right.
The Clintons still have FBI files on too many Republicans for this to mean anything.
There are also other implications
Mueller now has a duty to inform The Judiciary Committee of many developments in his investigation, especially any impending immunity agreements
Then again, there's a first time for everything, and Donald Trump is definitely an outside the beltway wildcard POTUS...so pass-the-popcorn BUMP
A fine start. Add Bill Clinton, Chelsea Clinton, Eric Holder, Susan Rice. Who else?
Oh Boy...more great Congressional Hearing Theater of the Absurd starring Trey Gowdy.
In other news, OJ is still looking for Nicole’s killer.
Bump
Other than being conflicted out for the same reason Sessions took himself out (in January). Rudy is clearly biased against Crooked Hillary.
“Why not the Justice Dept.?”
We have a winner!
All this investigation crap is nothing more than a jobs program for reelection posturing.
16 to 13? Who were the 13?
“We've got our hands on all of them!’ Congressman says Republican lawmakers have their own set of Anthony Weiner’s 650,000 emails
Iowa Rep. Steve King said Sunday before a Donald Trump rally that Republicans in Congress have copies of emails the FBI recovered from Anthony Weiner’s laptop
‘Congress has preserved them for our access,’ King told thousands of Trump supporters in Sioux City
‘So the Weiner leaks, the WikiLeaks, you name your leaks, we've got our hands on all of them – 650,000 emails’
It's unclear how members of Congress could have copies of the emails, which are part of an ongoing criminal investigation “
