President Trump is once again reacting to the continued investigations into Russia by questioning why the “fake media” isn’t looking into the Democrats more:
When will the Fake Media ask about the Dems dealings with Russia & why the DNC wouldn't allow the FBI to check their server or investigate?

You may recall that in the past few months, the president has tweeted similar sentiments about the Democrats and Hillary Clinton:
What about all of the contact with the Clinton campaign and the Russians? Also, is it true that the DNC would not let the FBI in to look?

Why isn't the House Intelligence Committee looking into the Bill & Hillary deal that allowed big Uranium to go to Russia, Russian speech….

…money to Bill, the Hillary Russian "reset," praise of Russia by Hillary, or Podesta Russian Company. Trump Russia story is a hoax. #MAGA!

The comment about the DNC server has to do with reports that the DNC had “rebuffed” FBI requests to access their servers. Director James Comey addressed the issue during his testimony to Congress in January, saying, “Ultimately what was agreed to is the private company [CrowdStrike] would share with us what they saw.”
Trump has repeatedly insisted that Russia is a “made up” story, even as the investigations continue in both the House and Senate.
