Summary
This document is an email or correspondence from Andrew Grossman (Partner) sharing the text of an opinion piece published on June 23, 2018, by Mr. Rivkin and Ms. Foley. The text criticizes the 'Crossfire' (Crossfire Hurricane) investigation into Donald Trump's campaign, arguing it was politically motivated and citing Harry Reid's October 30 letter to James Comey as evidence of perceived bias. The authors argue that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation should be paused due to due process concerns. The document bears a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp.
