"SNIP.....

“Justice Department officials intend to interview senior C.I.A. officers as they review the Russia investigation, indicating they are focused partly on the intelligence agencies’ most explosive conclusion about the 2016 election: that President Vladimir Putin of Russia intervened to benefit Donald Trump,” the New York Times reports.

“The interview plans are the latest sign the Justice Department will take a critical look at the C.I.A.’s work on Russia’s election interference.”
