Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) challenged special counsel John Durham during a Wednesday congressional hearing, as Durham defended a recent report he issued that criticized the FBI’s handling of a 2016 investigation into then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
During a congressional hearing on Wednesday, Durham detailed his findings from the special counsel report he released last month and defended the report’s conclusion that the FBI should not have launched its 2016 investigation into Trump. As Durham addresses his conclusions, Schiff opened up a line of questioning about a June 9, 2016, meeting at Trump Tower involving Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr.; his son-in-law Jared Kushner; his campaign manager Paul Manafort; and Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya.
