A group of House Republicans has been quietly investigating the Justice Department and the FBI for weeks over concerns the agencies improperly handled the unverified contents of a dossier alleging ties between President Trump and Russia.
Politico reported Wednesday that the group, led by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) has been quietly working without the knowledge of the committee's Democrats alongside the House investigation to examine what they see as corruption in the nation's highest law enforcement body.
The dossier, which was compiled by a former British intelligence agent during the 2016 campaign, contained a number of salacious allegations about Trump's ties to Russia. Trump was warned personally about the dossier by the FBI, which has said the claims made within are unverified.
