Oh, got it - heres what hes on about:
Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee are infuriated by what they view as a stall by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in providing documents related to the panels investigation into the FBIs decisionmaking during the 2016 presidential election, even under subpoena power.
Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), who is leading a joint investigation with House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), issued a subpoena two weeks ago after conservatives on his panel grew increasingly impatient about what they claim was the DOJ dragging its feet in turning over the documents theyve repeatedly requested.

We got no documents from the Department of Justice. Just a phone call. This is unacceptable--it's time to stop the games. Turn over the documents to Congress and allow us to conduct oversight, Meadows tweeted.
GOP lawmakers are seeking documents that touch on a range of DOJ and FBI activity during the presidential election, including those related to the bureaus investigation into Hillary Clintons handling of classified information while secretary of State, possible surveillance abuses and the details surrounding the recent decision to fire a top FBI official.

(13,526 posts)10. Gotta be, right? And Nunes was turned down yesterday as well:
The Department of Justice on Friday dismissed Rep. Devin Nunes demand for an unredacted copy of the document that initiated the FBIs investigation of links between Russia and President Donald Trumps campaign.
So Im kinda waiting for Spanky to mention this DOJ atrocity as well -
