Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown’s (D. OH) re-election campaign:
President Donald Trump has fired FBI Director James Comey, right in the middle of an investigation into White House ties to Russia.
Coincidence? Maybe. But the American people deserve to know for sure.
Now more than ever, we need an independent investigation into the Trump Administration's ties to Russia. It is the only way the American people -- and those of us who serve them -- can have complete confidence in the findings.
This story just keeps getting worse. It is time for the drama to end and an independent investigation to begin.
Thank you for joining me today.
Sherrod
