Story summary

Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., dismissed concerns that the incoming Democratic Congress will focus too much time investigating the Trump administration as a media "narrative" on Monday during an interview on "CNN News Central." Host Brianna Keilar noted comments from Adam Hamilton, a Democrat recently elected to the U.S. Senate, who said he doesn't want to spend the next two years in trials against the Trump administration after Democrats regain control of both chambers. Despite Keilar's reference to Hamilton’s statement, Raskin argued that this is a narrative being pushed by the media and not reflective of the incoming Congress's priorities.
