Senator Lindsey Graham confirmed Thursday the impending release of the Department of Justice’s internal report on FISA abuse; saying the documents will be released on December 9th, 2019.
“It’ll be Dec. 9, you’ll get the report,” Graham said on Fox News. “That’s locked.”
“The Justice Department’s watchdog announced in March 2018 that it would examine the agency’s and the FBI’s compliance with legal requirements regarding surveillance. The announcement came amid Republican outcries that authorities abused their power to monitor members of President Trump’s 2016 campaign,” reports The Hill.
Graham: “Mr. Horowitz will be appearing before the [Committee] on Dec. 11, where he will deliver a detailed report of what he found regarding his investigation, along with recommendations as to how to make our judicial and investigative systems better."https://t.co/q4dWeTyZNy

“As part of this examination, the [Office of the Inspector General] also will review information that was known to the DOJ and the FBI at the time the applications were filed from or about an alleged FBI confidential source,” said the announcement from the internal watchdog agency.
