Utah Rep. Chris Stewart: The real scandal isn’t possible Russian meddling in election, it’s taint of politics in CIA and FBI

Congressman Chris Stewart said he’s spending a considerable amount of time in Congress investigating the real scandal in the wake of the 2016 election: the possible politicization of the FBI, Department of Justice and CIA.

Praising President Donald Trump’s achievements in his first year in office, the Utah Republican in a brief speech on the Senate floor, called his work on the House Intelligence Committee “the most important work that we’ve been able to do and that I have been able to do.”

That’s because he’s looking into whether the nation’s intelligence and law enforcement agencies might be being used for political purposes, he said.
