Perhaps the dam is starting to crack – in the GOP.
The New York Times on Sunday reported that two Republican members of Congress last week began formally questioning Ivanka Trump’s use of private email for government business.
According to the Times story, the questions from Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Rep. Trey Gowdy of South Carolina were “seen by people close to the White House as a sign of things to come for the president’s family.”
Johnson is chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. Gowdy is the chairman of the House Oversight Committee who led the two-year investigation into “Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi,” along with Hillary Clinton’s email. Gowdy also probed anti-Trump political bias within the FBI in the 2016 campaign.
To borrow from another cliche: Perhaps the worm is starting to turn.
