Justice Dept. should require high-level approval before the FBI opens an investigation into a major political campaign, department's inspector general tells senators during testimony on report into investigation of the Trump campaign in 2016.
He said Horowitz uncovered"a massive conspiracy over time to defraud the FISA court, illegally surveil an American citizen," and keep an investigation going into a sitting president.
Graham painted a picture of a group of anti-Trumpers within the FBI who cooked up a bogus investigation. Horowitz did find a series of errors in how the bureau got approval for conducting electronic surveillance of Page, who ultimately was never charged with a crime. And he found some concerns with how the FBI approached its investigation into a presidential campaign.
