The name’s Comey. James Comey. During Thursday’s Senate Intelligence Committee sworn testimony, the ex-FBI director riveted the nation, while Donald Trump didn’t once respond during testimony that he’d lied about Comey’s firing and asked him to stop investigating ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn’s Kremlin ties.
Afterward, Trump’s attorney accused Comey of leaking “privileged information” and noted he’d confirmed saying he wasn’t investigating the president. On Friday, Trump responded in the Rose Garden, deriding the lawman’s “lies,” saying there was “no collusion, no obstruction,” and vowing that he’d refute Comey’s claims — under oath.
