The FBI has conducted over 3 dozen interviews of White House officials and officials at other agencies in connection with its investigation into the leak of CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity. Among those interviewed: Karl Rove and Scott McClellan.
The Defense and State Departments and CIA are part of the probe.
The focus, however, remains on the White House, two law enforcement officials said on condition of anonymity. While the initial, informal interviews have yielded no major breaks, the FBI is satisfied that the dozen agents assigned to the probe are making progress and have not encountered any stalling tactics, the officials said today. So far, no grand jury subpoenas have been issued, they said.
