White House Declassifies Secret FBI Probe on Trump's Comey Firing The White House has declassified a secret investigation conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) into whether Russia was involved in James Comey's firing as Director of the FBI.
The move sheds light on a previously opaque chapter in the Trump administration and its dealings with the Kremlin.
James Comey was appointed director of the FBI in 2013, tasked with leading the investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server during her tenure as Secretary of State.
