After an initial administrative review, Attorney General William Barr is now conducting a criminal probe led by Connecticut Attorney General John Durham, as opposed to the questionable House impeachment committee led by U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff.

He and Durham are working with a tight-knit trusted group of investigators to control any informational leaks and examining the events leading up to, and the basis for, the covert FBI counter-intelligence investigation, “Crossfire Hurricane.”

Also, Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz has signaled to lawmakers that his long-awaited report on contentious allegations of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) abuses will soon be released.

The transition to a criminal probe while probing the workings of the upper echelon of the intelligence community should provide insights into how a counterintelligence investigation based on overseas meetings morphed into the domestic appointment of a special counsel.
