Al Jazeera  

A Justice Department watchdog is looking into the origins of an FBI inquiry into Russian meddling in 2016 election. US President Donald Trump said on Friday that a government watchdog report on the origins of the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election, which engulfed two years of his presidency, will be “historic”. On Thursday, Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, in a letter sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, said that the much-anticipated report will be released on December 9 “barring unforeseen circumstances”. Inquiry into the investigation Since March 2018, Horowitz’s team has been looking into the origins and practices of the FBI’s investigation into Russian election meddling and possible collusion with the Trump campaign. 180823185800499 Horowitz has said the new report will examine how closely the FBI stuck to the law and rules when it went to a secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court beginning in 2016 to obtain authorisation to conduct electronic monitoring of “a certain US person”, believed to by the Trump campaign’s foreign policy adviser.
