A review launched by Attorney General William Barr into the origins of the Russia investigation has expanded significantly amid concerns about whether the probe has any legal or factual basis, multiple current and former officials told NBC News.
The prosecutor conducting the review, Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham, has expressed his intent to interview a number of current and former intelligence officials involved in examining Russias effort to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, including former CIA Director John Brennan and former director of national intelligence James Clapper, Brennan told NBC News.
Durham has also requested to talk to CIA analysts involved in the intelligence assessment of Russias activities, prompting some of them to hire lawyers, according to three former CIA officials familiar with the matter. And there is tension between the CIA and the Justice Department over what classified documents Durham can examine, two people familiar with the matter said.
With Barrs approval, Durham has expanded his staff and the timeframe under scrutiny, according to a law enforcement official directly familiar with the matter.

The plotters are freaking out, but dont you believe that makes these cornered rats even more dangerous and willing to take chances?
Unlike the peasants, these people have inside sympathizers that can pass on info. They also have the capability to do hits. You might have heard of Arkancide. Anyone coming after them is at risk.
Ultimately this is all a result of investing these agencies and doj with too much power, independence and secrecy. Very similar to what happened with the Praetorian guard choosing the emperor.
Or maybe Brennan knows which one he will throw under the bus to
take the fall
“AG Barr expands mysterious review into origin of Russia investigation..”
So mysterious we’ll never hear about it.
Mysterious? Oh,that’s precious.
“amid concerns about whether the probe has any legal or factual basis”
I don’t remember N[o] B[alanced] C[overage] having “concerns” about whether the Mueller probe had any legal or factual basis.
Now that's a laugh, democrat's lick-spittle media pals concerned about the law and facts when they haven't given a damn about either one for the past 75 years.
The USAG is only allowed to investigate Republicans.
He must never investigate Democrats.
Its in the Constitution.
it's also in the Constitution that your property can be seized by police without due process, and you can discriminate against people so long as they are white and male.
Yeah. Try a coup against the elected president of the United States and the investigation there into is deemed "mysterious"? Seems bloody obvious to me.
NBC News needs to get up to speed. Except, as Rush said yesterday, they don't want to get up to speed. It might interfere with their narrative.
Methinks the media doth protest this far, far too much
The people who are behind the POTUS and AG going after these folks are a lot scarier and more powerful than the the fools you are talking about. They have turned on their former masters. Just think Cummings demise was not natural.
I’m sooo glad Brennan is “comfortable” with everything he did.
May he soon become as “comfortable” as those who suffered because of his traitorous deeds.
Note that it does not say that Russia actually succeeded in interfering in that election. That's actually an improvement over the usual media claims like simply "Russian interference in the 2016 election." Are they admitting that our spooks make such "efforts" too?
Dont forget bankruptcy once lawyers involved middle class are toast
After the report on Clintons email fiasco with no action taken I am not holding my breath
Ever notice how the press ties itself in knots to avoid mentioning Alexandra Chalupa?
Yup, NBC has been commanded to cast dispersions on the ONLY real investigation out there.
Hope they find dimbulbcrats guilty and prosecute and jail.
Otherwise, we’ll have to take care of that following CW-II.
Ok, we wont worry about these fools. Easy pickings.
I read that in Art of War. Its ok to underestimate you enemy and a cornered rat is no problem.
We’re beginning to see more than a few of these “concerned” articles. CNN had one today asking if Barr’s investigation has been “tainted” by the White House’s activities.
Winter is coming...
