Now that it's on the other side of Capitol Hill, Senator Lindsey Graham has a change to the resolution.
As currently constructed, I cannot support the House-passed resolution calling for the release of the Mueller report.

However, I would agree to the resolution with a simple change –

-- it be amended to call for the appointment of a Special Counsel to:

* Investigate alleged misconduct around the handling of the Clinton email investigation.
* Investigate the abuse of the FISA warrant process against Mr. Carter Page.
I have been calling for a Special Counsel to investigate these matters for more than a year and one should have been appointed a long time ago.

I believe we owe it to the American people to look at ALL potential misconduct related to 2016 campaign investigation, not just some.

Mr. Mueller has been allowed to do his job.

It is past time for someone to look at the other side of the political coin.

Apoke on the Senate floor about why we should amend the House-passed Mueller resolution with support for the appointment of a Special Counsel to investigate misconduct around the handling of the Clinton email scandal & Carter Page/FISA warrant.https://t.co/D8jVE0e5XZ
We let Mueller look at ALL THINGS Trump related to collusion & more.

Somebody needs to look at what happened on the other side, find out if the FBI & DOJ had 2 systems - 1 supporting person they wanted to win, 1 out to get the person they wanted to lose.https://t.co/D8jVE0e5XZ
Rumors have been flying for weeks about the end of Mueller's Specal Counsel investigation. One of the top attorneys working on the probe is leaving the Mueller team to work at a private law firm, fueling speculation the investigation is finally coming to a conclusion.
