"I want to see all the things that the president has done that go against the mandates of our Founding Fathers in the Constitution," said Representative Elijah Cummings, the Maryland Democrat who is about to take control of the powerful Oversight Committee. of the camera. "We need responsibility, transparency, integrity and honesty of this Administration".



The Democrats seized power, having campaigned on the promise of providing stronger control over the Trump administration. That promise could start battles legal battles over congressional subpoenas, a lot of demands for documents and testimony from federal agencies, including Trump's tax returns, and the weakening of investigations into the facets of Trump's personal life, his family business and its government.

The Cummings committee has already compiled a list of 64 citations and queries about concerns they had with the Trump administration's activities, but which were rejected by the committee's Republican leadership. The Democrats said they intend to review the applications.



In practical terms, Democrats will be well positioned to continue with their supervisory agenda. The budget for the majority will allow the leaders of the committees to hire a small army of researchers, lawyers and other key employees. Lawyers began contacting Hill's top advisors months ago to discuss possible job vacancies, according to sources close to the informal talks.



The power of the majority will also allow Democrats to issue subpoenas and demand records and testimony from federal officials. Notable among those powers: the ability to ask the Internal Revenue Service to deliver Trump's confidential tax records for review.



Rep. Bill Pascrell, a New Jersey Democrat, is one of several committee members who told ABC News last month that the House Ways and Means Committee plans to exercise that power and start a review of the Trump tax returns.



"We will recommend a thorough review on a non-partisan basis, something I started asking 18 months ago," said Pascrell. "We are allowed to investigate this, nothing should stand in our way."



Democrats in the Intelligence Committee of the House of Representatives were frustrated by the Republicans' decision to focus their investigation on the interference of Russian elections in FBI behavior, rather than any possible link between the Trump campaign and Russia. Now they say they intend to seek the testimony of more than 30 witnesses, including members of the Trump family and confidants, to address the persistent questions they have about the Trump campaign's activities.



Democrats say that Republicans did not question key witnesses and followed some relevant lines of research.



"We will take our oversight responsibilities seriously, both with respect to the intelligence agencies in our charge and with regard to any work that is left unrealized in the Russian investigation by the majority," said Democratic Representative Adam Schiff. , California Democrat. on the House Intelligence Committee, he said in a statement to ABC News before the election.

They say they intend to explore questions about the finances of the Trump Organization, including the relationship between the family business and Deutsche Bank, which has financed some of the real estate transactions of the Trump Organization. The bank has said it is cooperating with the researchers.



They want to review, among other articles, what they have called "credible" accusations about the use of Trump properties by the Russian oligarchs to launder money, allegations that Trump's aides have refuted. The effort could involve hiring researchers with specialized data and experience in forensic accounting, according to a source in Congress. Trump has denied doing business in Russia, apart from the Miss Universe pageant.



The Democrats also want to continue investigating the digital operation of the Trump campaign and the relationship with the Cambridge Analytica data signature. The company, which closed in May, is still being investigated by the British authorities for the alleged misuse of the data of Facebook users.



For months, the Republicans predicted that the Democrats would surpass themselves if they took control.



The Democrats "have demonstrated without a doubt that their only objective is to conduct an endless investigation against the administration in the hope of imposing an imaginary horrible crime on them," said Jack Langer, spokesman for the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Devin. Nunes, to ABC News. the chose.



With respect to Trump's tax returns, Republicans have said they plan to fight. In October, Ways and Means president Kevin Brady, a Republican from Texas, responded on Twitter to statements by Democrats suggesting they would look for copies of the results.



"This is dangerous," Brady wrote. "Once the Democrats abuse this law to make public the @realDonaldTrump tax returns, what prevents them from doing tax returns for political reasons? Who is next? #AbuseOfPower #EnemiesList"



Just this week, Trump told reporters he does not care if Congress looks at his statements. "I do not care, they can do whatever they want and I can do whatever I want," Trump said at a campaign stop in Indiana.



Some allies of Trump warn that the plans of the democrats could restrain the president's agenda and hinder the administration in endless supervisory hearings.



"Everyone should assume that if Nancy Pelosi becomes a speaker, each committee will hold hearings and submit each Trump under oath," former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, an ally of Trump, told ABC News. away from the policies they would like to follow. "



Concern over the fact that too much information could provoke a backlash has also generated expressions of concern on the part of the Democrats.



Cummings has promised not to lose sight of the problems of the kitchen table, including the prices of prescription drugs, postal reform and student debt.



"I'm not looking for retribution, life is too short," said Cummings, who fought with Republicans over the investigations into the 2012 Benghazi attack and Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server. Trump storm, I have to keep in mind that there are people who have to live every day ".

Another Democratic source in the House of Representatives told ABC News that there is great concern that Democrats can spread too much by investigating the government and the president, and some argue that they should limit their work to a handful of questions and problems to maximize Attention and deflect criticism from Republicans. .



As the new Congress sets in motion, the White House, which is already grappling with Mueller's investigation and has begun to prepare for the new investigation attack.



"It will not be enough to go to Twitter and say: 'This is a witch hunt!' And do not cooperate, "Kurt Bardella, a public relations consultant who served as an assistant to the former chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Representative Darrell Issa, R-Calif., Told ABC News.



The White House did not answer questions about concerns with possible investigations of a House run by Democrats.



The Democrats have taken precautions not to say a word that excites the passions on both sides of the aisle: impeachment. But the man who would be in a position to supervise any movement to try to impeach Trump from his position, the expected Chairman of the Judiciary Committee Jerry Nadler, DN.Y., was seen earlier this year in the Amtrak Acela reading a lot of books on the subject.



"They will start doing everything in their power to oppose, resist, challenge, obstruct this president," said Rep. Lee Zeldin, R-N.Y, an ally of Trump, in an interview with ABC News.



While progressives have tried to force votes on accusations against Trump, senior Democrats, including Schiff, the minority leader of the House, Pelosi and Nadler, have said they want to see the results of the investigation of the special lawyer Robert Mueller before thinking about possible impeachment proceedings. Pelosi, in particular, has resisted talking about drastic measures.



In a Interview with Rolling Stone this summer., she said that the impeachment was, in her opinion, "off the table".



"I do not think it's in the interest of working families in the United States to focus on that, unless we have more things to follow, something we do not have at the moment," Pelosi told the magazine. "You get the power of the subpoena, you do not know where it takes you, I would not challenge the president for political reasons, but I would not dismiss him for political reasons either, that's not what it's supposed to be about. country ".
