Durham case reveals documents wrongly withheld from Congress

 Washington Examiner:

...

Kash Patel, who was an aide to Republicans when they controlled the House Intelligence Committee under then-Chairman Nunes, said on Sunday that FBI notes disclosed as part of Durham's case against Democratic cybersecurity lawyer Michael Sussmann were subpoenaed by Nunes and "withheld" from the panel during its own Russia investigation.

"These are documents that they clearly hid from Congress," Nunes, appearing with Patel, told host Maria Bartiromo on her Fox News program, Sunday Morning Futures.

During his time in Congress, Nunes spearheaded 14 criminal referrals to the Justice Department related to the Russia investigation and the 2016 election. Nunes resigned his House seat at the start of the year to become the CEO of Trump's media venture, Trump Media and Technology Group, which created the Truth Social platform.

This sounds like it is another potential case against Sussmann.  Is there a claim of privilege about these documents?

“He has laid out a ‘joint venture’ conspiracy. Those aren’t my words. Those are legal words we use as prosecutors that John Durham placed in his pleadings,” Patel explained.

He continued by noting that the likes of Fusion GPS, tech executive Rodney Joffe, Jake Sullivan, John Podesta, Robby Mook, Marc Elias, and numerous other Clinton-affiliated individuals still remain under investigation by Durham.

Speaking alongside Patel, Nunes said that if he was still in Congress, some of them would have have already been referred for criminal prosecution for the role they’d played in hiding documents from him.
