President Donald Trump turned the tables on Democrats' demands for a special investigation into his contacts with Russia, calling on Friday a probe into House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's ties to the Kremlin.
The commander in chief fired off a tweet that read:
I hereby demand a second investigation, after Schumer, of Pelosi for her close ties to Russia, and lying about it. https://t.co/qCDljfF3wN

His Twitter message includes a link to a Politico article with an accompanying 2010 photo that appears to dispute Pelosi's claim that she never met Russian ambassador, Sergey Kislyak, whose two meetings last year with then-Sen. Jeff Sessions are embroiled in controversy.
Pelosi has called for Sessions' resignation as U.S. Attorney General.
Trump's demand follows a similar tweet hours earlier in which he said Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer should also be probed. That Twitter note included a 2003 photo of Schumer with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
We should start an immediate investigation into @SenSchumer and his ties to Russia and Putin. A total hypocrite! pic.twitter.com/Ik3yqjHzsA
