Will be to give this office real investigative and unassailable legal powers to demand this information and like an inspector general refer clear conflict of interest situations and ethics violations for criminal prosecution. As it stands this office is doing a heroic job in the face of epic levels of criminal corruption staring it in the face but it lacks the tools to fully rectify such violations. So a legal overhaul giving this clear authority is definitely in order and should be a part of our congressional campaign pledge to restore integrity and respect to the federal government and ensure that a lawless criminal President can never abuse his power in this manner again.
