Trump’s attorney responds to James Comey’s testimony

Published



President Trump’s lawyer counterattacked against James Comey, Tuesday, suggesting the sacked FBI Director be investigated for leaking privileged information about his conversations at the White House.

Mr. Comey has now admitted that he is one of these leakers.”
