Fox News political contributor Karl Rove said Tuesday that U.S. Attorney John Durham could extend the investigation into the Russia probe’s origins well beyond the scope of Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s powers.
“Durham allows you to get to people who have left the government like a [former FBI Director James] Comey, like a [former FBI Deputy Director Andrew] McCabe, like a [former FBI official] Peter Strzok and others, and he’s going to be able to get them involved in this and he has greater authority to compel testimony and documents than does the inspector general,” Rove told Fox News’ “America’s Newsroom.”
