Senate Intel Committee Wants Justice Department to Investigate Steve Bannon
The Senate Intelligence Committee sent a bipartisan letter to the Justice Department on July 19, 2019, seeking an investigation into former Trump ally Steve Bannon, according to the Los Angeles Times. The letter, which has not been made public but was viewed by the LA Times, was signed by the chairman at the time, Sen. Richard M. Burr (R-NC), as well as Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), and outlined accusations against Bannon of lying to lawmakers when he testified about Russian interference in the 2016 election.
According to the letter, the committee believed Bannon may have lied about his interactions with Erik Prince, a private security contractor; Rick Gerson, a hedge fund manager; and Kirill Dmitriev, the head of a Russian sovereign fund.
