House Democrats to Trump: Were going to investigate everything
Over the last two years, the House of Representatives was controlled by Republicans, who ran interference for Trump, ensuring there would never be any legitimate investigation into his mountain of misdeeds.

Early on Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) sent a letter to the White House announcing an investigation into the Trump teams shoddy handling of the security clearance process.
Just a couple hours later, House Foreign Affairs Chairman Eliot Engel (D-NY) said his committee will look into whether Trumps tangled network of business dealings are influencing foreign policy decisions.

Also on Wednesday, we learned that House Intelligence Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) and House Financial Services Chair Maxine Waters (D-CA) are teaming up to dig into Deutsche Bank. - ShareBlue
