The chairmen of the House intelligence and Senate judiciary committees have run out of patience with the Department of Justice as their requests for documents have met with repeated delays, denials, and pushback.

Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) has waited for more than 16 months to receive documents concerning the FBI’s interview of Michael Flynn, the former national security adviser to President Donald Trump. The senator breached custom cordiality in a June 6 letter castigating the department’s pushback as “disingenuous and extremely disturbing.”
