The federal prosecutor leading probe into 2016 Trump-Russia investigation might be pursuing a basis to accuse former US intelligence officials who served under former President Obama of hiding intelligence about Russia's election interference, NYT reports.
The Times reported that John Durham, the US attorney tapped by Attorney General William Barr to look into the investigators, is questioning past disputes between different US intelligence agencies' analysts over sharing highly sensitive information regarding Russia's scheme to meddle in the 2016 US election.
A source told the Times the disagreement was over whether NSA analysts could view the CIA's raw data or whether the CIA needed to filter the sensitive information before sharing it.The Times also reported that the FBI wanted access to unclassified emails of American officials that the Russian government had previously hacked, which a foreign ally had obtained a copy of and provided to the US.
