According to several US media reports on the 11th, the White House recently warned Democrats that its planned congressional investigation into President Trump's administration may be suspected of a crime. Democrats, on the other hand, responded that Congress has supervisory powers according to law. According to a letter dated 9th, White House Counsel Will Schaff sent a letter to Democratic Robert Garcia, chairman of the House Supervisory Committee, accusing Democrats of trying to use congressional investigation procedures to intimidate and harass government officials. According to the letter, if the investigation is aimed at preventing administrative officials from performing their official duties, or intimidating the target of the investigation by abusing their power, it may constitute a “crime.”
