In Washington, D.C., special counsel John Durham has completed his investigation into the FBI’s probe of Russian interference in the 2016 Trump campaign. Durham’s 300-plus-page report concluded the FBI should never have launched its investigation, which Durham said was based largely on leads provided by political opponents of Donald Trump, and relied heavily on “raw, unanalyzed and uncorroborated intelligence.” The report does not recommend any major changes to FBI and Justice Department policies. Durham was appointed special counsel in 2019 by then-Attorney General Bill Barr, after Barr referred to the FBI’s court-authorized activities as “spying.”
