President Donald Trump revealed classified intelligence about ISIS to the Russian ambassador and foreign minister in a meeting last week, according to the Washington Post. President Trump is already facing widespread criticism for his firing of FBI Director James Comey in the midst of the bureau’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster, who was present at the meeting between Trump and the Russian officials, called the Washington Post’s story “false,” saying that intelligence sources and threats were not discussed. We’ll bring you the latest developments.
