President Donald Trump has blocked the release of a classified memo written by Democratic lawmakers about the Russia probe. In a letter to the chair of the House Intelligence Committee yesterday, White House counsel Don McGahn said the memo contains numerous properly classified and especially sensitive passages. He said the memo would create especially significant concerns for the national security and law enforcement interests. <br/><br/>In a statement, House Democratic Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said President Trump's move to block the memo an attempt to cover up the truth about the Trump-Russia scandal from the American people. The Democrats' memo aimed to counter a Republican-drafted one the president declassified and released.
