Former Acting Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe confirmed on Tuesday he was interviewed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller. "The information I have, including the memos that I wrote, I've given all that to the special counsel team," he told The View.

Over the weekend, McCabe, who is releasing a new book called "The Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump," claimed that the top Justice Department officials discussed the possibility of invoking the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office after the president fired FBI Director James Comey in May 2017. Trump responded by accusing McCabe of lying and claiming that he, together with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein "were planning a very illegal act, and got caught."
