House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) is the primary driver behind a four-page memo critical of the Justice Department and FBI. (Susan Walsh/AP)Nunes ultimately used the information he obtained to create a four-page memo critical of the Justice Department and FBI. Jack Langer, spokesman for the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) said many committee members and staff members worked on it. Wray, the FBI director, has since seen the memo, but it was unclear whether the Justice Department remained opposed to its release. On Wednesday, White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly relayed to Attorney General Jeff Sessions that he supported the document’s release.
