House Republicans are expanding their investigation of the Trump dossier, seeking answers from Obama administration officials including a former staffer for Vice President Joe Biden whose husband works for the firm behind the controversial document, Fox News has learned.

A source familiar with the matter confirmed to Fox News that Shailagh Murray, who was Biden's former deputy chief of staff and communications director before serving as a senior adviser to President Obama, will be sent a questionnaire Friday.

The questionnaire, from Republican Chairman Devin Nunes of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, will ask when Murray became aware that the dossier - commissioned by opposition research firm Fusion GPS - was funded by the Democratic National Committee and Clinton campaign.

According to Murray's online profile with the University of Chicago Institute of Politics, she joined the Obama administration in 2011 after working as a foreign correspondent, and national political reporter for The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.

Murray is married to Neil King Jr., who, according to the Columbia Journalism Review, left The Wall Street Journal to work for Fusion GPS.

Wasn’t there a deadline like 2 weeks ago for various Obama officials to return a questionnaire to the committee? What ever happened o that?

There is something putrid in the way “justice” works in this foul government. I don’t even like the way our side handles it. The system is pathetic and is being abused. The left is using this to block MAGA agenda, attack the President purposely and protect the last administration mainly Obama and Clinton. The left can easily hold on even if the President gets a second term. They always think long term like all communist/socialist scumbags. I actually think the GOP is more comfortable with the Rat party boot on their neck.
