Castro says Dems will restart Russia probe if they win back the House

A member of the House Intelligence Committee says that Democrats plan to quickly reopen the panel's Russia probe should the party take back control of the House in November.

“Probably the one that would get going right away is a thorough investigation into Russia and their interference,” Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) told Hill.TV co-host Krystal Ball on Tuesday when asked what Democrats would prioritize if they regain a majority in the House in the fall.

Republicans on the Intelligence Committee shut down the panel's contentious Russia probe in March, releasing a report finding no collusion between President Trump’s campaign and Russia during the 2016 election.

Democrats have long argued that the probe was ended prematurely, and have pushed for the panel to interview additional witnesses and review documents to verify witness testimonies.

They're telling all their constituents that they have to hold onto the House, otherwise the Democrats might actually investigate the crimes that were committed. And we can't have the repub crimes getting investigated. They won't find anything, of course, since they're all innocent, but we just can't have them wasting their time.
