President Donald Trump will review a classified Republican memo that alleges bias and counterintelligence abuses in government surveillance of people surrounding him before releasing it publicly, a White House aide said Tuesday.
The memo has passed from a House committee to the White House for review, which is required because the document is based on classified information. Trump has as many as five days to review the document for national security concerns, but it won’t be mentioned as part of his State of the Union speech to Congress Tuesday, White House counselor Kellyanne Conway told Fox News.
