President Trump announced that he is going to demand that the Justice Department investigate the FBI. The reason will be to uncover a potential infiltration of his presidential campaign. This unusual order came only hours before Trump’s legal team announced that the special counsel stated that the President’s investigation might end by September.
Trump Angry?
On Sunday, Trump posted a tweet that he will officially demand from the Department of Justice an investigation into whether or not the DOJ/FBI surveilled his presidential campaign for political purposes. He also stated that he will demand an answer as to whether Barak Obama’s administration requested the infiltration.
Trump’s demand pushed DOJ. Later on Sunday, the DOJ asked its general inspector to further expand the already existing Russia probe by checking if there was any surveillance that wasn’t properly politically motivated. The White House is trying to combat a potential threat that Robert Mueller, special counsel, poses by investigating possible ties between Trump’s campaign and Russia.
An Interview
Rudy Giuliani, the President’s lawyer, stated that Mueller announced a timetable that suggested that his investigation could end by the first of September. But to make this happen, Trump has to agree to an interview in July. This is currently the new working plan of the legal team.
