Freeman refers to Trump’s tweet last week, in which the president claimed there was an FBI informant within his campaign.

Subsequent reporting suggests the FBI had an informant who met with three different Trump campaign officials, though there is no evidence someone was embedded in the Trump campaign.

Freeman argued Obama should provide details about his time leading the Department of Justice and FBI during the 2016 presidential race.
