Brad Wenstrup thinks it was wrong when the FBI spied on Martin Luther King, and it's wrong when they "spied" on Trump. (They didn't spy on Trump.)
May 22, 2018

Brad Wenstrup is the Republican Congressman from Jean Schmidt's former district. I guess we should thank him for primarying her out of the House, but then he pulls this.

"It wasn't right when [the FBI spied on] Martin Luther King, and it isn't right when they do it to Trump. "

Wenstrup is all for oversight as long as it helps Donald Trump.

Wenstrup's district is, of course, rated "solid Republican." His election opponent, Jill Schiller, is a former Obama staffer who is running on healthcare, specifically Wenstrup's vote to repeal Obamacare.
