by | Jan 21, 2026

Judicial Watch announced Wednesday it filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the Justice Department seeking fully unredacted records from former Special Counsel John Durham’s probe into the origins of the Crossfire Hurricane/Russiagate investigation.

 

The suit targets previously withheld or missing materials, including CIA Director John Brennan’s 2016 White House briefing notes, the DOJ Inspector General report critiquing the FBI’s handling of Crossfire Hurricane, the 14 missing pages of the Durham Report appendix, and all unredacted transcripts or notes from Durham’s interviews with key figures, including Hillary Clinton, John Brennan, Jake Sullivan, John Podesta, and others.

The request also seeks unredacted records of Durham’s referrals to other federal agencies, emails between Fusion GPS and major media outlets, the Clinton campaign, or the DNC, and communications involving British Intelligence head Sir Richard Dearlove, U.S. intelligence officials, Stefan Halper, and Christopher Steele.
