President Donald Trump ignored a question about blocking Senate testimony next week by former Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey, met with Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and signed a pair of police-related bills into law.

TRUMP WON’T ANSWER COMEY QUESTION; SPICER DOESN’T RULE OUT BLOCKING TESTIMONY

Trump ignored a shouted question after a White House bill-signing ceremony about whether he would try to block Comey from testifying in the Senate next week. The former FBI chief was fired by Trump on May 9 and will testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday, where he is expected to say Trump asked him to drop an investigation into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn’s ties to Russia.

Earlier in the day, White House press secretary Sean Spicer left open the possibility that Trump would use executive privilege to stop Comey from testifying to the panel. Spicer said the hearing had only recently been announced and it has “got to be reviewed.”

GRAHAM MEETS TRUMP AFTER EXPRESSING ‘HIT JOB’ WORRIES

Sen. Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican, was scheduled to meet Trump at the White House in the afternoon. Spicer did not detail the agenda for the meeting but it came shortly after Graham said he was worried next week’s Senate testimony from Comey could be a “hit job.”

Graham said on Fox News he is concerned Comey will focus solely on his conversations with Trump and not answer other questions. “That would be a hit job on President Trump,” said Graham.

SUPPORT FOR SCRAPPING CLIMATE DEAL TOUTED

Trump tweeted a collection of statements supporting his decision to back the U.S. out of the Paris climate accord, a move he announced Thursday. Most of the comments were from Republican lawmakers like Sen. Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, who said the emissions-cutting agreement was “nothing but empty promises.”

Business leaders including Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs GS, -0.08% , Elon Musk of Tesla TSLA, +5.04% and Bob Iger of Disney DIS, +1.24% have criticized Trump’s move to withdraw.

TRUMP SIGNS POLICE-RELATED BILLS

Trump signed two police-related bills in the Diplomatic Reception Room, the Public Safety Officers Benefits Improvement Act of 2017 and the American Law Enforcement Heroes Act of 2017. The benefits act aims to reduce the time that families of officers killed in the line of duty must wait before receiving survivor benefits. The heroes act encourages law enforcement agencies to hire veterans.

“I will tell you that this is something that I’m very happy to be doing,” Trump said, noting they were “slightly less controversial” than his Paris climate deal statement.
