Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Friday urged President Donald Trump "not to worry" after the Republican-led Senate Intelligence Committee subpoenaed the president’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr.
Trump said on Thursday that he was "surprised” about the subpoena, adding that he"saw Richard Burr saying there was no collusion two or three weeks ago." "I can understand his frustration at being asked to come back after having cooperated for such a long period of time, seeing now that the Mueller report has concluded, sort of wondering what the purpose of this is," Cornyn said of Trump Jr.
But McConnell defended the years-long work of the Intelligence Committee during his radio interview on Friday, commending the committee’s investigation into the 2016 election and Russian interference as bipartisan. “I am proud of this committee because we're the only committee that is still bipartisan, still following the facts. And we're going to continue that process,” he said.
