Investigations under the Democrats Archives

House investigations of Trump and his administration.

I’m sure you’ve heard the left cry that the peoples work won’t get done because of Republicans and their investigations. Well I want to thank NBC News for this partial list of phony Democrat investigations of Donald Trump. Who’s still not been convicted of any of these charges.

He’s making investigations great again — at least in number.

At least 14 Democratic-led House committees have been investigating various aspects of President Donald Trump’s businesses, campaign and his presidency since the beginning of this year, an NBC News review shows. In all, those committees have launched at least 50 probes into Trump world.

The investigations include whether Trump obstructed justice in the Russia probes, whether his businesses inflated their assets, how his daughter and son-in-law obtained their security clearances, whether he used his power to interfere with mergers, how his actions might have slowed aid to Puerto Rico, and conflict of interest allegations involving cabinet members.

Trump say he won’t work with Democrats until they end ‘phony investigations’

MAY 22, 2019

The NBC review shows the busiest committees appear to be the Judiciary and Oversight panels. Some of the inquiries might have gone dormant, and some are cross-committee — meaning they’re being investigated jointly by more than one committee — so they are listed under those committees, but are only counted once in the NBC investigation total.

Here’s a look at the probes that have been made public, organized by committee:
