APPLAUSE: One Congressman Just Stood Up And Did Something GENIUS To Finally Stop Mueller In His Tracks
Republican Congressman Ron DeSantis had put forward an amendment that would stop special counsel Robert Mueller’s Trump-Russia probe in its tracks, Politico reports. The amendment has two major key points:
- It will cut off funds to the investigation six months after it is passed.
- It will prevent Mueller from investigating any of Trump’s business before his presidential campaign was launched in 2015.
DeSantis provided the rationale for his amendment, saying that Mueller “didn’t identify a crime to be investigated and practically invites a fishing expedition.”
He continued:
“Congress should use its spending power to clarify the scope and limit the duration of this investigation. [Deputy Attorney General Rod] Rosenstein has said that the DOJ doesn’t conduct fishing expeditions; the corollary to this admonition should be that Congress will not fund a fishing expedition.”
Preventing Mueller from going over time, over budget, and investigating everything under the sun by restricting his funds would be a great way to save tax dollars and force Mueller to investigate what actually matters.
DeSantis’ amendment is filed to a government spending package that the House will consider after Congress returns from the summer recess. His provision won’t necessarily get a vote on the House floor, but it’s a great idea and it shows that some Congressmen are actually serious about confronting Mueller’s pointless witch hunt.
