James Comey

IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig, who was appointed by President Trump in 2018, will face questions behind closed doors from lawmakers in the House and Senate before the end of the month.

Trump held a wide-ranging news conference on the White House lawn Friday morning, saying the threat of nuclear war with North Korea is "largely solved."

James Comey's actions, the report said, were "extraordinary and insubordinate," and none of his explanations amounted to a "persuasive basis for deviating from well-established department policies."

In an interview with NPR, the fired FBI director maintained he wouldn't do things differently if he had a chance. "I saw this as a 500-year flood," he said, "and so where is the manual?"

The president says he never asked the former FBI director for his loyalty, and that the notes Comey says he kept about their conversations are "FAKE!"

In A Higher Loyalty, James Comey says the president "is unethical, and untethered to truth and institutional values. ... His leadership is transactional, ego driven and about personal loyalty."

As the special counsel investigation into Russian election interference intensifies, legal experts and Justice Department veterans puzzle over why the deputy attorney general is overseeing the probe.

The attorney general testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday and defended his past comments to the panel about his contacts with the Russian ambassador during the 2016 campaign.

As part of the DOJ Russia investigation, special counsel Robert Mueller's team is looking into whether President Trump attempted to obstruct justice, The Washington Post reported Wednesday.

The attorney general may have saved his job and also laid a path for Trump allies on how to avoid revealing conversations with the president — even without invoking executive privilege.
