Senate probes Justice Department effort to thwart FBI investigation of Clinton's dossier payments

The Senate Judiciary Committee's investigation into the Justice Department's attempts to halt the inquiry into the Clinton campaign's funding of the Steele Dossier highlights ongoing concerns about political influence in federal investigations. This scrutiny parallels President Trump's recent calls for investigations into Jeffrey Epstein's connections with prominent Democrats, including Bill Clinton, indicating a broader pattern of political investigations involving the FBI and Justice Department. Such dynamics underscore the contentious relationship between political figures and federal law enforcement agencies.
