Trump Denies Asking Comey to Stop Flynn Investigation
Summary from the AllSides News Team
In an early morning tweet, President Trump said that he "never asked Comey to stop investigating Flynn." This is counter to Comey's testimony before Congress in which he claimed that Trump pressured him during an Oval Office meeting to stop investigating Flynn. This tweet came after the president tweeted on Saturday that he fired Flynn "because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI."
