Republican Lawmakers Call for Investigation Into Comey and Mueller
[Breitbart] Three Republican House Oversight Committee members on Friday called for an investigation into former FBI Director James Comey and Special Counsel Robert Mueller for acting in a partisan manner and applying double standards when it came to the Obama and Trump administrations.

Reps. Jim Jordan (OH), Mark Meadows (NC), and Jody Hice (GA) said Comey misled the American people last year when he agreed to then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s request that he call an investigation into Hillary Clinton a "matter" instead of an investigation.

"He did it willfully. He did it intentionally. And he did it at the direction of Attorney General Loretta Lynch," they wrote in a piece published on foxnews.com.

They also said Comey misled the American people in the early weeks of the Trump administration by "furthering the perception that President Trump was under investigation, when in fact he was not."

"He again did this willfully and intentionally," they wrote.

They also pointed out that Comey recently admitted having a friend leak one of his memos detailing a private conversation he had with Trump, after Trump fired him.

#1 I'd say get on with it ASAP. After all, the Pubs have the majority even though, at times, they don't act like it. It should be a public hearing and under oath. Maybe there should be a Special Counsel to investigate the Special Counsel.

#2 What's interesting is the guy Comey leaked thru is a former US Attorney. Officer of the Court, with all the security oaths.
He's in felony water.

#3 I can see the Dems allowing Comey to be their scapegoat.

#4 It should escape no one that when it gets hot the swamp does seem much more fetid , or perhaps people just noticed the smell more.
