White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders admitted she lied to the media about President Donald Trumps highly controversial decision to fire FBI Director James Comey in 2017, according to special counsel Robert Muellers report.
"Sanders told this Office [of the special counsel] that her reference to hearing from countless members of the FBI was a slip of the tongue, investigators wrote in the document, which was released with significant redactions by Attorney General William Barr on Thursday.
She also recalled that her statement in a separate press interview that rank-and-file FBI agents had lost confidence in Comey was a comment she made in the heat of the moment that was not founded on anything, it continued.
Sanders told the press following Comeys firing in May 2017 that countless FBI agents had lost confidence in his leadership. Critics quickly raised concerns that Trumps decision to fire Comey was an attempt to obstruct justice and hinder the investigation into his campaigns alleged collusion with Russia during the 2016 campaign.
