Special counsel John Durham’s final report did not include interviews with top Justice Department officials who were deeply involved in launching the Trump-Russia collusion investigation and two senators want to know why.

Sens. Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley wrote to Mr. Durham asking him to explain why his report is missing testimony from former FBI Director James Comey, former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe and others who played key roles in the flawed “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation of the 2016 Trump campaign.

Mr. Comey and Mr. McCabe played central roles in launching Crossfire Hurricane but declined to be interviewed by Mr. Durham, as did Kevin Clinesmith, the FBI lawyer who authored a fake email to win renewal of a surveillance warrant for a Trump campaign advisor. Former FBI agents Peter Strzok and Bill Priestap, who while working at the bureau were deeply involved in launching Crossfire Hurricane, also refused to talk to Mr. Durham.
