AP FACT CHECK: Trump strains truth in tweets on Russia probe
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's latest barrage of tweets attacking investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 election stretched the bounds of credulity, from false claims that "no crime" had been uncovered to assertions that his campaign had been cleared of collusion with Russia.
That's what The Associated Press found when scrutinizing an assortment of statements he made last week.
Trump left out important context in weekend tweets rejoicing over the firing of former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe, once a leader of the bureau's investigation into Democrat Hillary Clinton's email practices.
