- In a tweet Saturday morning, President Donald Trump said the GOP memo that was released Friday “totally vindicates” him in the Russia investigation.
- The tweet undermines claims from House Speaker Paul Ryan that the memo is a completely separate matter from special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.
- The memo claims that top law-enforcement officials acted improperly when signing off on the secret surveillance of a former Trump campaign adviser.
President Donald Trump slammed the special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation in a tweet Saturday morning, pointing to a controversial memo as evidence of bias against him at the FBI and the Department of Justice.

This is an American disgrace!”See the rest of the story at Business Insider
