The White House has said it has “no problem” with a former Department of Justice official testifying before a committee investigating possible links between Russia and Donald Trump’s campaign.
Press Secretary Sean Spicer said the Trump administration had done nothing to prevent former acting Attorney General Sally Yates appearing before the House Intelligence Committee’s ongoing investigation.
“I hope she testifies. I look forward to it,” Mr Spicer said during a briefing at the White House. “We have no problem with her testifying, plain and simple.”
