WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on President Donald Trump and the investigation into his campaign’s potential ties to Russia (all times local):
10 a.m.
A Democratic senator says he expects tough questions for Attorney General Jeff Sessions about his involvement in the firing of FBI Director James Comey when he testifies to Congress on Tuesday.
Sen. Jack Reed of Rhode Island is an ex officio member of the Senate Intelligence committee.
Reed says “there’s a real question of the propriety” of Sessions’ involvement in Comey’s dismissal, since Sessions had recused himself from the federal probe into contacts between Russia and the Trump campaign. Comey was leading that probe.
