What we're covering here
* Special counsel John Durham’s report detailing his office's investigation into potential criminal misconduct during the Trump-Russia probe has been released. Our team is going through the document now and will drop the latest updates.
* The report, which was compiled over three years by the Trump administration appointee, concluded that the FBI should never have launched a full investigation into connections between Donald Trump’s campaign and Russia during the 2016 election.
* Durham’s 300-plus page report also states that the FBI used “raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence,” to launch the “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation and used a different standard when weighing concerns about alleged election interference regarding Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Durham did not, however, recommend any new charges against individuals.
