Mr. Donald Trump emphasized that he is being investigated by "the very person who suggested he" fire the FBI director.Although he did not specify who, he seemed to be referring to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosetein and Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller. Previously, Mr. Rosetein was the one who directed Mr. Mueller to directly investigate the Russian interference in the US presidential election.
In a series of statements on June 15, President Donald Trump criticized Mr. Mueller's current investigations as a "political witch hunt" based on fabricated and fake evidence.
Investigators from Mueller’s office are expected to question the Director of National Intelligence and the Director of the National Security Agency. President Donald Trump is said to have asked them to publicly deny the Russia investigation./.
