Attorney General William Barr announced during a House hearing on Tuesday that he would investigate the FBI’s “conduct” in investigating the Trump campaign.
“I am reviewing the conduct of the investigation and trying to get my arms around all the aspects of the counterintelligence investigation that was conducted during the summer of 2016,” Barr said.
President Donald Trump criticized the Robert Mueller Russia investigation again on Wednesday, calling it “an attempted coup” of his presidency.
“This was an attempted coup. This was an attempted takedown of the president, and we beat them,” Trump said as he left the White House for a trip to Texas.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said his committee will start to investigate the FBI and DOJ’s potential abuse of the FISA warrant process and surveillance of the Trump campaign and called for a special counsel to investigate these potential abuses of power during a press conference on Monday.
After noting that after special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation confirmed that the Donald Trump campaign did not collude with the Russian government, the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman said he wanted to talk about the “other side of the story,” which includes possible abuse of the FISA warrant process to spy on the Donald Trump campaign by DOJ and FBI officials.
