Trump tweeted that out and then a letter to answer. Saying you are hereby terminated and le moved from Office Effective immediately. He wasnt doing a good job. He was not doing a good job. Reporter f. B. I. Director james comey drawing the ire of the president. First shutting down the claim he was wiretapped from president obama and confirming an f. B. I. Counterintelligence investigation. But despite that, trump writing as he announced comeys firing i greatly appreciate you informing me on three separate occasions that i am not under investigation. That is a tell. That shows we have a deeply insecure president who understands that the noose is tightening because of russia investigation. That is why i believe he has let jim comey go. Reporter trump tweeting comey lost the confidence of almost everyone in washington. Republican and democrat alike. When things calm down they will thank me. Democratting colleagues complaining of the remova themselves repeatedly and sharply criticized. Now new information that director comey requested more money and manpower from the department of justice for the russia investigation just days before he was fired. Democrats alleging a coverup. The inescapable conclusion from the circumstantial evidence here is the president wanted to stop or stifle this investigation. There appear to be con stra dictions of the white house contradictions over who ordered the probe in comey. Some saying its the d. O. J. But now Dianne Feinstein the top democrat on the Senate IntelligenceCommittee Sides the president told her himself he requested the probe leading to fire the man investigating him. Alison so the decision to fire comey was trumps. But he got a letter from the former state attorney from maryland and we have more on brad . Brad he wrote the threepage letter essentially arguing that james comey talks too much. That he spilled the beans and he let go secrets. That is in character with the Deputy Attorney generals history as the u. S. Attorney for maryland. He treasured secrecy and used secrecy as a weapon. Rosenstein has been on the job for a couple of weeks but he should be a familiar face to viewers here. He just spent the last 12 years as the u. S. Attorney for maryland making headlines locking up dishonest politicians. Now its his name on the threepage document justifying the firing of the f. B. I. Director, among other things discussing ongoing investigations. No charges are appropriate in this case. While he is now coming under fire on many fronts ad herns to secrecy is how adherence to secrecy is how he ran the offi charge of the trumprussia investigation described the work in january. Authorize a federal investigation to summary and we operate below the surface. We emerge only when necessary. Brad no matter the explanation comeys termination prompted hundreds to gather at the white house in protest today. President trump, that is not how democracies work. Brad they are calling for a special prosecutor and more. There is evidence that the president of the United States has colluded with russia. Russia is not our friend. We need to call for the resignation of donald trump. Immediately. [applause] brad so again, federal investigation is a submerged submarine and only comes up when he has an indictment to announce. Today returning to character, no comment at all about this from his ofic bell, abc7 news. Jonathan thank you very much for that. Fanning the flames of controversy today, the Russian Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov visited the white house. Before the meeting with President Trump he sarcastically took a question from an american reporter over comeys firing. Listen. Does the comey fire cast a shadow over your talks . What is the question . Youre kidding. Youre kidding. Jonathan yep. Sarcasm. After meeting with lavrov the white house says it encouraged the f. B. I. To complete the investigation into russias interference with the election this past november. Nancy everyone is asking who Andrew Mccabe . He is now the acting f. B. I. Director taking over for comey. Comey named mccabe the Deputy Director of the f. B. I. In january last year. He has experience in counterterrorism but also had been a source of controversy. Virginia governor mcauliffe who has close ties to state donated to the campaign of mccabes wife. Over the next two and a half hours, complete coverage of the comey firing.

Because we have two teams both trying to get to a conference final. If you are the capitals, you dont want to wor i rabbit dont want to worry about the history. If the caps play like they have in the last two games they have all the momentum. They have been on top of the game. Playing loose the last four periods. They should be fine. They are also on the home ice. This crowd will be crazy tonight. Earlier today the players seem loose. They said the history around here, they dont care about that. It doesnt matter. We havent thought about what is going on in the past. Of course, especially down1. Everybody was talking about the past. All that kind of stuff. I think the team is just interested in trying to rewrite a few things. We have to continue to play the way we have been playing. We got away from the game. Trying to be, trying things. Shooting more. When we shouldnt be shooting. Things like that. Go have like we have all season. Knowing that, you know, it worked for us. We have to continue on that.

Typically the 14th street bridge is crowded with a home nats game and we expect with both home games that it will get more tied up. As we head north on 395 and in the district. Keep a close eye on traffic in the rush now a look at the big pictures on the road. Julie wright, how does it look overall . We have a lot going on. D. C.

Late today another twist in the james comey firing. An invitation to speak freely. And we are tracking separate robbery investigations with plenty if common. Both groups hunting for the same drug. Plus Team Coverage of a perfect storm of biggest sports days in decades. Now abc7 news at 5 00. On your side. Former f. B. I. Director james comey could testify before a closed Senate Session next week. About russias involvement in the u. S. Election. Today they started to interview people to serve as interim director one day after comey was fired. The chief Political Correspondent scott thuman live at the capitol hill bureau. You were at the white house today when they got their explanation for the firing. Scott listen, they faced tough questions today about this one. As you might predict. For the most part gave the same answer over and over that President Trump really never had despite earlier claims full confidence in director comey. In fact, he considered even getting rid of him day one. It was interesting though, because while he denied it had anything to do russian investigation, others reiterated the same thing they couldnt say much more other than they felt there was issue with the bureau, they needed a change in leadership. How is now an explanation from the president and then sanders. Wasnt doing a good job. Not doing a good job. The president over the last several months lost confidence in comey. The d. O. J. Lost confidence in director comey. Bipartisan members of congress made it clear they had lost confidence in director comey. Most importantly the rank and the file of the f. B. I. Had lost confidence in their director. I will tell you in some of our reporting to refute part of that comment we talked with a lot of members of the rank and file of the f. B. I. Who actually are stating quite the opposite. That they are disappointed in this decision. So we are
