Posture:
Independent document review — underlying allegations unadjudicated

NPR reported that serial-number and database comparisons showed dozens of pages associated with FBI interviews about an accusation against Trump were missing and that one file had been removed and restored. DOJ said responsive records not published were privileged, duplicative or tied to an ongoing investigation, then said it would review whether material had been miscoded. The accusation was uncorroborated and unadjudicated, and Trump denied it.
