Matt Gaetz believes the Department of Justice is covering up payments made to surveil Donald Trump

  The House has been waiting for the Justice Department to turn over documents related to its Russia investigation but to date the agency has been unwilling to do so and now Matt Gaetz has a theory as to why. Here is more:

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is hiding the fact that “money was paid to people to collect intelligence on the Trump campaign,” said House Representative Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) on Friday.

“I believe money was paid to people to collect intelligence on the Trump campaign,” said Gaetz during an interview with host Bill Hemmer on FNC’s America’s Newsroom.

“That crosses a line in this country,” he said.  “When you’ve got folks that are collecting intelligence not as a consequence of a true investigative basis, but based on instead this dirty dossier, this DNC information, and then going and spying on a rival political campaign.”

Gaetz continued,  “I think that the records we’re asking [for] will evidence that, and I would love to be proven wrong, I would love to know that that didn’t happen in this country.  But I’ve got suspicion that it did.”

  Matt Gaetz says that he does not know what is in these documents but that he has a suspicion and I have to believe he has heard, or knows, more than he is letting on because that is a pretty serious allegation to make on a whim.
