- It confused me when he said my firing provided great relief
- Trump's explanation about election didn't make sense
- The administration choose to defame me and the FBI. Those were lies
- The FBI is honest, the FBI is strong, the FBI is independent
- I have no doubt the Russian government tried to intervene in election
- Says he's confident that no votes were altered in 2016 election
- Trump didn't ask him to stop Russia election probe, nor did any other official
- Flynn was in legal jeopardy, there was an open investigation
- It's not for me to say whether Trump was trying to obstruct, thought it was very disturbing
- Declines to say whether claims about Trump in the Russian hooker dossier are true
- Reveals Flynn was/is under criminal investigation
- Became aware of Russia cyber intrusion in late Summer 2015
At present, indices and the dollar move with a slight increase for the day.
The market reaction says it all. USD/JPY a touch lower than where it was before the testimony, stocks higher, Treasury yields higher.
Trump refrained from tweeting but called Trump a liar a half-dozen times and dangled some tidbits about Russia interfering in the election and Trump campaign involvement with Russia.
The reaction from Trump's team will be interesting. The President at the moment is at a rally and said "we are under siege... but we will come out bigger and better and stronger than ever."
