House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said on Monday that if Republicans take back the House, he will have them investigate the Department of Justice.
I've seen it all. McCarthy said that the Department of Justice has reached an intolerable state. We will leave no stone unturned when Republicans take back the House.
McCarthy told Attorney General Garland to clear his calendar.
Hours after former President Trump confirmed in a lengthy statement that the FBI had raided his Mar-a-Lago residence, McCarthy commented.
The FBI was accused of unfairly targeting the former president for political purposes after the raid was announced. He called the raid a political prosecution.
It is the first time a search warrant has been executed on the home of a former president as the Justice Department continues to investigate the attack on the Capitol.
The National Archives asked the Justice Department to investigate after authorities recovered boxes of materials from Trump's Florida home, which included materials he took from the White House. The FBI searched for those materials, according to the New York Times.
The Department of Justice didn't say anything.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer was asked about the raid on MSNBC's "Rachel Maddow"
I don't know anything about it other than what I've read, so I think it's wise for me to keep quiet.
Schumer said no one knows the facts and any comments are premature when Maddow asked if McCarthy was threatening Garland.
