After President Trump repeatedly asked then-FBI Director James Comey to swear loyalty to the president during a one-on-one meeting in the White House in February, the Republican is accused of trying to get two top intelligence officials to intervene.
The Washington Post reports that Trump asked the director of national intelligence, Daniel Coats, and Adm. Michael S. Rogers, the director of the National Security Agency to help him stop a FBI investigation into possible collusion between his campaign and Russia.
Trump wanted the top intelligence officials to public deny the existence of evidence of collusion during the 2016 presidential election.
The requests, which were denied by both men, happened during two separate meetings that could be used to help build the case that Trump was obstructing justice.
