Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., called concerns that the incoming Democratic Congress will focus too much time investigating the Trump administration a media “narrative” on Monday.

During an interview on “CNN News Central,” host Brianna Keilar noted that Adam Hamilton, a Democrat recently elected to the U.S. Senate, said that he doesn’t “want to spend the next two years in trials” against the Trump administration after Democrats regain control of the House and the Senate.

“This is something that we’re hearing from a lot of those Democrats who did come in,” Keilar said.

Raskin attempted to interrupt Keilar and later dismissed the concern as a “narrative,” despite Keilar’s reference to comments from an incoming senator.

“That’s a narrative the media is trying to drive, but–” Raskin said.

“Well, I’m just quoting him, right? So this is what he said. So is he, are other Democrats going to be disappointed by the amount of time spent on investigations?” Keilar said.

Raskin answered, “No, because we have lots of committees. We have got a brilliant new class of Democratic representatives and senators coming in, and we’re going to be able to do it all. We’re going to be able to get Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, health insurance back to the American people. Millions of people have been thrown off of their health plans because of the actions of the Trump administration and their wretched, hideous bill. We’re going to be able to restore people’s benefits to food in the SNAP program.”

He added, “We’re going to be able to get rid of these ruinous 50% tariffs on Canada and on the rest of the world and begin to bring prices down. If they’re all serious in running away from Donald Trump and not wanting to have anything to do with the Iran war anymore, beginning with JD Vance, then they can bring us a plan for how we can extricate from the mess that they have given us in Iran. We can work together on all those things. That will bring gas prices and diesel prices down. We can all work together. Corruption and affordability are really the same issue here with the Trump administration, as usually they have been.”

Fox News Digital reached out to Raskin’s office and Hamilton’s campaign for comment.

Although Raskin initially suggested these concerns were part of a media “narrative,” several prominent progressive figures have gone on the record discouraging congressional Democrats from spending the next two years targeting President Donald Trump.

One of them included Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., who made his comments as recently as Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“Do we want to hold the Trump administration accountable for their corruption, for their illegal, unconstitutional actions? Absolutely,” Sanders said.

He stressed that Congress must not focus solely on investigating Trump when issues like high child poverty rates, senior poverty, and economic and privacy threats posed by AI require urgent action.
