[Wash Times] Republicans led by Florida Rep. Ron DeSantis are mulling an amendment that would dramatically cut funding for special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia-President Donald Trump ties.It’s about time someone in the GOP stepped up to the plate and beat back these ridiculous Russia investigations. DeSantis is suggesting that if Mueller doesn’t find the dirt on the Donald within six months, then that funding would stop.
His proposed amendment also stops Mueller from looking into Trump-tied matters that took place before June 2015, the time when the businessman-turned-president launched his White House campaign.
These are only common-sense measures. Why should taxpayers keep funding an investigation that goes nowhere? Or, one that digs deep, deep, deep into Trump’s past, well before the point he announced his run for the White House?
That’d be called a witch hunt.
