The special counsel investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election is investigating President Donald Trump for obstruction of justice, the Washington Post reports.
The Post, citing two unnamed sources, says special counsel Robert Muellers probe expanded to include the president just days after he dismissed former FBI Director James Comey. The source, billed as familiar with Muellers thinking, says the special counsel currently views the matter as a he said-he said situation.
Marc Kasowitz, the presidents personal counsel, denounced this latest leak.

If he had any honor, he waould have recused himself by now...
This is a bull$#!+ planted story designed to provoke Trump into doing something stupid. RINOs are chomping at the bit to find something to justify impeachment hearings.
Do you think it's a coincidence that the House passed a Dodd-Frank repeal bill on the same day that Comey was testifying before the Senate?
Something that a lot of folks here seem to be overlooking is that Trump wanted Comey to investigate him so he could be vindicated of these charges. Comey gave him some legitimate reasons why that might not be a good idea, but I'm sure that thought never left Trump's mind. Why wouldn't Trump want to have the same investigation by Mueller?
Yeah, WHY did he go right along with it?
“Trump wanted Comey to investigate him so he could be vindicated of these charges. Comey gave him some legitimate reasons why that might not be a good idea, but I’m sure that thought never left Trump’s mind. Why wouldn’t Trump want to have the same investigation by Mueller?”
Absurd. Just absurd.
Jeff Sessions doomed the republic. He really is Ned Stark.
Correct, SFF. Not to mention this is complete FICTION.
Trump has nothing to lose at this point. Fire Mueller, replace Sessions, appoint an AG to go after clinton, rice, obama and the rest. Fight fire with fire. Screw the media. They’re the ones fueling this. Most of America will be happy if he fires mueller.
More #Fakenews using anonymous sources...
OK — if you say so. LOL.
If the Swamp is not put on Code RED drain and rid Sessions, the left WILL impeach the President even if they can get it as far as what happened to Bill Clinton. This is revenge and a coup. To let Hillary Clinton go may be one of the biggest miscalculations in American politics among others recently.
This idiot picked a Obama /Dem bot lawyer Rosenstein and not even a Trump supporter for this key position which is normal.
Why this was not stopped is my question .
Laura Ingram was flabbergasted by this choice .
Yesterday the idiot said he believed in Mueller like a good DC swamp person he evolved into rather than saying I would hold my opinion until later .
Sessions is a moron .
This is why you don’t want a special investigator. It becomes a comprehensive fishing expedition, ending in indictments that have nothing — NOTHING — to do with the original excuse for the special investigator.
There was not a single iota of evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
There was never a logical reason to NEED a special prosecutor in the absence of ANY EVIDENCE whatsoever.
Now it is a full blown witch hunt, and by damn, IT WILL TURN UP SOMETHING OR MANUFACTURE IT IF NEED BE!
I am beyond livid that the deputy AG “bowed” to the phony pressure from the Democrate hit machine and allowed a special prosecutor. This is pure, unadulterated Bull S!!!!
Trump should sue the Wash Post for defamation of character as well as suing to identify UNNAMED sources cited in all their hit pieces on him.
Leaking BS so trump won’t fire Mueller
Someone explain: are we not informed by the investigators what’s being investigated? Is our conduit to this information through leakers?
Do we know that obstruction of justice is being investigated?
Most of this stuff people are upset about is fantasy and the same type of fake news seen for more than a year. The MSM has figured out ‘leaks’ will attract more readers than their fake reporters editorializing. Too many people are addicted to outrage adrenaline.
The GOP is a disgrace for allowing all these investigations!
>>Republicans in congress should be raising hell about this.<<
They can’t, they’re all card-carrying members of the Deep State.
