Don McGahn
Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) say they believe the FBI investigation into Brett Kavanaugh was “greatly constrained” at the direction of the White House.
President Trump has announced White House counsel Don McGahn is leaving his role.
The announcement follows reports that he had been cooperating extensively with Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.
"This is pretty important testimony,” Dean said of the White House counsel’s cooperation in the Mueller investigation.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
Any suggestion that White House counsel Donald McGahn has turned on him is false, Trump insisted.
"Self-preservation is a real motive," Dean said. "Trump throws almost everyone under the bus."
Don McGahn reportedly feared Trump was setting him up.
Many of the attorneys played key roles in the decisions to fire national security adviser Michael Flynn and FBI Director James Comey, Ty Cobb said.
The president has denied that he plans to remove the special counsel from the Russia probe.
These men are charged with representing and advising President Donald Trump, especially when it comes to the Russia investigation.
