The Justice Department has formally asked the Supreme Court to block a lower court order to turn over secret grand jury material from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation to a House committee. A lower federal court in March had ruled the material could be given to the House Judiciary Committee. SEN. RON JOHNSON SAYS THERE WAS 'TOTAL CORRUPTION' IN TRANSITION BETWEEN OBAMA AND TRUMP ADMINISTRATIONSThe Trump DOJ has said it has turned over all relevant material. “This substantial delay will seriously endanger the Committee’s ability to complete its impeachment investigation during the current Congress— which ends not long thereafter on January 3, 2021," they claimed. The DOJ is conducting a separate internal review of the Russia investigation origins led by Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham.
