While Tapper is not satisfied because Schiff can't provide proof that no new facts have arisen and acting like Schiff ought to be chasing down this rabbit hole to find out why Clinton investigations are being reopened, as if Schiff's logical conclusion of WH pressure isn't enough.

Reminds me of how media went on a wild goose chase wasting time questioning government officials for weeks over Trump's diversionary false claims of Obama wiretapping him, only to finally conclude there was no factual basis but merely Trump tweets spurred on by rightwing media.
