Twist for Trump tale

A MEMBER of the US President’s outside legal team said yesterday that Donald Trump was not under federal investigation, days after Mr Trump appeared to confirm he was with a tweet about being the target of a “witch hunt”.

Appearing on a series of morning news programs, attorney Jay Sekulow repeatedly stressed that “the President has not been and is not under investigation”.

He said the tweet from Mr Trump was specifically directed at a story in The Washington Post about the expanding probe into Russia’s election meddling.
