Confronting Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) in a contentious interview on Tuesday over the FBI raid of former President Donald Trump’s home, CNN anchor Pamela Brown repeatedly questioned the Republican lawmaker on his apparent double standard on investigations into Democrats.

Besides pointing out Turner’s seemingly hypocritical stance on ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Brown pressed the Ohio congressman over his suggestion that the raid was politically motivated. Turner accused Brown of “trying to put words in my mouth.”

Republicans and right-wing media have had a full-blown meltdown over the unprecedented raid of the ex-president’s Mar-a-Lago Florida estate, calling for the FBI to be defunded while claiming the execution of the search warrant was “Third World bullshit” and worse than Pearl Harbor.
