Lewinsky, now an anti-bullying activist, was involved in an affair with Clinton during her time as a young White House intern that would later fuel GOP accusations of dishonesty aimed at Clinton, leading to his eventual impeachment.

Democrats and critics of the White House reacted with concern following Sunday's release of Barr's report summarizing the years-long Mueller investigation, raising questions as to whether Trump's newly confirmed attorney general had in some way altered the contents of Mueller's conclusion on Russia's election interference and Trump's campaign.

Officials at the Justice Department told Reuters this week that Barr aims to have a public version of Mueller's report released within "weeks, not months."

Lewinsky re-entered headlines earlier this year when it was reported that Trump, a frequent adversary of the Clintons, brought up the affair during multiple White House tours with guests.
