A Republican lawmaker has put forth an amendment that would stop funding for the special counsel’s Russia investigation 180 days after it becomes law.
The amendment from Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) would also prevent special counsel Robert Mueller from probing “matters occurring before June 2015,” which is the month Trump announced his presidential bid.
The amendment was submitted as part of the upcoming spending package the lower chamber is expected to weigh after the congressional recess.

Why?
Because Trump has an “R” after his name and they have to stop Mueller from finding anything. I think it is probably too late for that however.
DeSantis is a Navy Reserve JAG officer. Why is attempting to obstruct a USG CI investigation? cc @RealNCIS https://t.co/KTNSplabzn
