      They did this under Clinton and Obama and Trump, too. Pure fishing expedition until they found something.

      One way the Ethics Commission keeps "rogue" Congresspeople and other high level bureaucrats in check is to simply maintain an active investigation on them indefinitely, putting particular members under a much higher degree of scrutiny than the rest.
