Special Counsel John Durham defended the Department of Justice (DOJ) and FBI amid a push by some Republicans to defund or limit funding for those agencies in response to their alleged “weaponization.”

Durham appeared before Congress on June 21 to testify about the results of his report on the investigation into Donald Trump and his presidential campaign ahead of the 2016 election.
