House Republicans are preparing to conduct the first interviews in over four months in their investigation into the FBIs handling of the Clinton email probe.
A joint investigation run by the Judiciary and Oversight Committees has set three witness interviews for June, including testimony from Bill Priestap, the assistant director of the FBIs counterintelligence division, and Michael Steinbach, the former head of the FBIs national security division.
Multiple congressional sources confirmed Priestaps interview. Steinbach confirmed to The Hill that he would be appearing.
The third witness is John Giacalone, who preceded Steinbach as the bureau's top national security official and oversaw the first seven months of the Clinton probe, according to multiple congressional sources.
Priestap, in particular, has come under fire from conservatives.
As the head of the FBI counterintelligence division, he held a pivotal leadership position in both the Clinton and Russia probes and was in a supervisory position over counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok, whose text messages criticizing Trump and other political figures during the 2016 election have been the focus of a maelstrom of scrutiny from the right.
