TL;DR Summary

Material from a binder containing highly classified information related to the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election disappeared in the final days of Donald Trump's presidency. The disappearance raised concerns about the inappropriate sharing of sensitive information and the potential exposure of secret sources and methods. The binder, known as the "Crossfire Hurricane" binder, contained redacted versions of FBI applications for surveillance warrants and text messages between FBI officials involved in the inquiry. It is unclear if the missing material comprises the entire original binder, and former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows was suggested to still have the material by Trump.
