At the moment there seems to be a move from a minority of Republican congressmen to fire and shut down investigations into Trump, including the New York one, and start an investigation into Clinton and other Trump critics.

It's bordering on tin-pot dictator stuff when politicians dictate who gets investigated and whose doesn't. If there is evidence then hand it over to the proper authorities and let them do it. It's vital these things are separate.
No it is not a bizarre system, Congressman are lawmakers, not law enforcers and they have the evidence. They have every right to make referrals when clear violations have been committed and it is not tin pot stuff at all, this stuff in the referral is real, those people have potentially committed violations of those Federal Statutes, you cannot just target Donald Trump with dodgy investigations that have so far led to nothing and no evidence, because you and Hugh don't like the guy.

You claim these Congressman are being political, well you and Hugh are doing the exact same thing, Trump must be investigated but never Hillary, she is not above the law and needs to be held to account and properly investigated, not investigated in a shoddy way like prior investigations clearly have been.

Alas, the only justification that I take with great pleasure is Hillary's monumental loss, especially where there is strong indicators of cheating and yet she cannot win an election, even after all the cheating....

Might have something to do with them not being done properly, you keep spinning that same useless line Hugh, it's utter rubbish. Remove the Hillary tinted specs, people have clearly been biased in her favour in the justice department, turning blind eyes at very obvious criminal violations, what appears for a long time. Not any more.
