WASHINGTON—The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence released on June 7 the remarks that former F.B.I. Director James Comey prepared for delivery on June 8, detailing his recollection of five conversations he had with President Donald Trump.
While expressing repeated concerns about Trump’s tendency not to use traditional channels of communication, Comey does not allege that the president obstructed the investigation into Russian interference in the election and possible collusion with the Trump team. Comey said that Trump considered requesting that Comey investigate claims made in a dossier alleging the Russians held compromising material on Trump and also investigate whether any of Trump’s “satellite” associates had done anything wrong.
