President Trump is pressuring Attorney General Jeff Sessions to open an investigation into the Obama administration over Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
Trump took to Twitter on Wednesday to vent that Democrats are not under investigation, as special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into allegations of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia heats up.
Question: If all of the Russian meddling took place during the Obama Administration, right up to January 20th, why aren’t they the subject of the investigation? Why didn’t Obama do something about the meddling? Why aren’t Dem crimes under investigation? Ask Jeff Sessions!

So far, Mueller has induced guilty pleas out of Trump’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn and former campaign adviser George Papadopoulos for lying to the FBI. Both men are cooperating with the special counsel.
Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his associate Richard Gates face a litany of charges over alleged financial crimes. Gates is believed to be in talks about working with the special counsel to build the case against Manafort.
