ALEXANDRIA, Va.—Special counsel John Durham on Oct. 17 pushed back against claims that the investigation he’s been leading was motivated by politics.

Durham was appointed in 2020 as special counsel to investigate the origins of the Donald Trump-Russia investigation, which was launched by the FBI before the 2016 presidential election and was continued later by special counsel Robert Mueller’s team.
