WASHINGTON – Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff on Sunday defended a memo released this weekend that rebutted allegations that the FBI and Justice Department had acted improperly in their investigation of the Trump campaign.
"I’m not surprised, frankly, that the White House tried to bury this memo response as long as they could," said Schiff of California on CNN's State of the Union. "But it’s important for the public to see the facts, that the FBI acted appropriately."
A redacted version of the memo compiled by Schiff, ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, was released in response to a GOP memo that alleged the FBI abused its power to conduct surveillance of former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
