U.S. Representative Elijah Cummings, the Democratic chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said the probe was “in response to grave breaches of national security at the highest levels of the Trump administration.” Cummings said the panel would seek information in the cases of current and former officials including Trump’s son-in-law and senior aide Jared Kushner, national security adviser John Bolton, as well as former national security adviser Michael Flynn and former staff secretary Rob Porter.
