The intelligence community has completed a long-delayed review of transcripts connected to the House Republican-led investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election, a development that could reignite the furor over the long-dormant probe.
“After more than a year of unnecessary delay, the ODNI has finally concluded its protracted classification review of the Committee’s transcripts, and it also appears the White House has now abandoned its improper insistence on reviewing key transcripts, which the Committee appropriately rejected," a House Intelligence Committee spokesman said in a statement.
The release of the transcripts themselves has been a saga. In September 2018, the GOP-led intelligence committee voted to send them to the intelligence community for a classification review and then-Chairman Devin Nunes suggested they could be released in time for the midterm elections. But the panel didn't transmit the transcripts to the DNI's office until November, nine months after the conclusion of an investigation riven by partisan sniping and distrust.
