Trump demands 'total transparency' about FBI informant

Season 2018 Episode 183 | 3m 29s

President Trump has stepped up his campaign to discredit the Russia probe. He tweeted on Wednesday that elements of the Justice Department are part of the "criminal deep state...caught in a major spy scandal," after recently demanding an inquiry into whether the FBI illegally infiltrated his 2016 campaign. Judy Woodruff reports House GOP leaders will get a rare, classified briefing on the issue.
