GOP Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and John Cornyn of Texas want an independent investigation “for the good of the country” to determine whether Obama or his top officials “manipulated the U.S. national security apparatus for a political outcome.”
“As we have supported in the past, appointing an independent special counsel would do the country a tremendous service in this case,” the Republicans said in a statement.
“With every piece of information that gets released, it becomes more evident that the entire Russia collusion hoax was created by the Obama Administration to subvert the will of the American people.
