Obama Plants Watchdog In Congress to Undermine Trump Presidency... Its Worse Than We Thought According to reports, Representative Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah and chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, said that his committee still intends to keep an eye on Hillary Clintons email issues in the new Congress. Chaffetz noted that new emails emerged this week for the State Department. I dont want this to linger, he said in a statement. Chaffetz also refused to stand behind Trump, saying it is not his plan to be Trumps cheerleader. He also noted that letters he has gotten from Democrats about the committee watching Trump were silly. The president is exempt from most of these issues, Chaffetz noted. While his committee spent the past eight years going after Obama for scandals, including gunrunning at the Justice Department and the IRSs slowdown of tax-emption applications from Tea Party groups, this years focus will be on postal reformturning back Obamas application of the Antiquities Act. Chaffetz says he would also like to change pension programs for new federal workers and see new government buildings set up outside of Washington.
