Earlier, the US House Intelligence Committee has voted to release the Democrats' counter memo responding to the GOP's report alleging FBI surveillance abuses. The HIC chair Devin Nunes' Republical memo criticized the FBI's investigation into Trump's campaign adviser Carter Page.
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), who compiled the Democratic memo said that he wants the FBI, US intelligence community and the White House to vet its contents.
The memo will now have to be approved by the US President. The White House said earlier that it was ready to review the memo.
