The Trump administration is denying it tried to block former acting Attorney General Sally Yates from testifying before Congress about Russia.
The Washington Post reported Tuesday that the administration sought to block Yates from testifying before a House panel on alleged connections between Russian officials and President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign. The paper cited Justice Department letters saying much of her potential testimony is covered by presidential communication privilege and barred from being discussed in a congressional hearing.
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer released a statement calling the allegation and the Post‘s story “entirely false.”
