I'm surprised, Chaffetz has asked the DOJ's Investigator General to start a probe into the firing of FBI director Comey. Apparently he was turned by something that also involved him not running for re-election. Not sure what yet.
Quote:
The chairman of the House Oversight Committee is calling for the Justice Department's inspector general to look into the circumstances surrounding President Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey.
"Previously I asked Inspector General Horowitz to review the FBI’s actions in advance of the 2016 election," Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) said in a statement Wednesday.
"Today I sent a letter urging IG Horowitz to expand the scope of his review to include the decision to fire Director Comey. I look forward to receiving the IG’s findings."
The inspector general is also probing the Justice Department's and the FBI's handling of their investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server in the months before the 2016 presidential election.

The White House also demanded that Comey give them a preview of what he was presenting to the investigation before his testimony. Comey refused. Trump then issued the order to have him fired.
Claude Taylor is now saying Comey was fired on his trip to LA so they could have immediate access to Comey's computer. If true this is utter and blatant obstruction and they should all be thrown in jail.
