Finally! This is great coming from the congressman.
Watch the great interview and pushback from GOP Congressman Farenthold (Corpus Christi TX).
He gave the Fake News CNN a taste of their own medicine by using the Seth Rich case as an analogy for what DOES need investigating. He compared the nothing there, stuck on Russia reports to the MSM’s calling the Seth Rich case a ‘nothing there’ case.
CNN peeps were NOT enjoying his staying on them and coming right back with excellent answers regarding Trump/Russia and Seth Rich.

Let's see, he was killed in DC, was in the govt..and you think no one investigated the occurrence...
They didn't even interview the staff at the bar he was at just before he was murdered...nor did they even ask to review the tape for that night.
That's strange don't you think?
Depends on protocol..
Wouldn't you think they'd want to get as many possible leads as they can in a murder investigation? See if somebody followed him out when he left or something?
They didn't even do that. So it looks fishy.
The family hired a private investigator..
The circumstances of what happened next are still unclear. We know that Seth was abruptly confronted on the street, that he had been on the phone and quickly ended the call. We also know that there were signs of a struggle, including a watchband torn when the assailants attempted to rip it off his wrist. Law-enforcement officials told us that Seth’s murder looked like a botched robbery attempt in which the assailants — after shooting our son — panicked, immediately ran and abandoned Seth’s personal belongings. We have seen no evidence, by any person at any time, that Seth’s murder had any connection to his job at the Democratic National Committee or his life in politics. Anyone who claims to have such evidence is either concealing it from us or lying.
Opinion | We’re Seth Rich’s parents. Stop politicizing our son’s murder.
Still, conservative news outlets and commentators continue, day after painful day, to peddle discredited conspiracy theories that Seth was killed after having provided WikiLeaks with emails from the DNC. Those theories, which some reporters have since retracted, are baseless, and they are unspeakably cruel.
We know that Seth’s personal email and his personal computer were both inspected by detectives early in the investigation and that the inspection revealed no evidence of any communications with anyone at WikiLeaks or anyone associated with WikiLeaks. Nor did that inspection reveal any evidence that Seth had leaked DNC emails to WikiLeaks or to anyone else. Indeed, those who have suggested that Seth’s role as a data analyst at the DNC gave him access to a wide trove of emails are simply incorrect — Seth’s job was to develop analytical models to encourage voters to turn out to vote. He didn’t have access to DNC emails, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee emails, John Podesta’s emails or Hillary Clinton’s emails. That simply wasn’t his job.
