The House Intelligence Committee’s Russia investigation is coming to a close, according to a CNN report published Monday afternoon.

CNN reported, citing an unnamed source familiar with the matter, that Rep. Mike Conaway (R-TX), who is leading the panel’s Russia probe, is expected to announce Monday that the committee has finished its interviews in the probe and will begin to craft a report on its findings.

Republican members of the committee have hinted recently that the investigation is winding down, but Democrats on the panel have called for the committee to continue its investigative work and conduct more interviews with witnesses.

The committee is expected to produce separate reports from Republicans and Democrats, according to CNN: Republicans will likely conclude that there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, while Democrats will argue “a case for collusion” and note areas that the committee did not investigate.

  1. The Republicans leading the committee decided before they started that there was no collusion, so might as well quit and just wait for the real investigative report from Mueller.

  2. Agree , house investigation is a sham . Senate will be better

  3. I think it’s time for Mueller to drop another shoe just to point out how the GOPer intel members aren’t about to do the job they were hired to do.

  4. The House Intelligence Committee’s Russia investigation is coming to a close,

    It never qualified as being an investigation to begin with.

    Republican members of the committee have hinted recently that the investigation is winding down,

    For some reason I think Nunes long ago hinted that it already had.

  5. The GOP/Russians in the house “probe” don’t want to find anything so they stopped looking. Plain and simple. They are (1,2,3) traitors. The lot of them. History will have no mercy, assuming history won’t be written by a bot.
