According to an anonymous source in the White House the Chief of Staff of the President Trump, Rience Priebus, would meet the Deputy Director of the FBI, Andrew McCabe, to convince him to contest the media claims about the frequent and repeated contacts between the managers of the Trump campaign and of Russian intelligence agents. The operation carried out by Priebus was strongly criticized by the Democrats, in particularly the Deputy John Conyers of Michigan, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, has declared that “the White House can not afford to put pressure to FBI to make public statements on a pending investigation that involves the President and his advisers”. The White House downplayed the incident saying that contacts between Priebus and McCabe were perfectly regular and that there was no attempt to put pressure to FBI.
