President Donald Trump wanted to order the Justice Department to prosecute Hillary Clinton and former FBI Director James Comey last spring, the New York Times reported Tuesday. White House chief counsel Don McGahn reportedly talked him out of it, telling Trump he had no authority to order prosecutions and that if he tried to investigate his political enemies, it could lead to his impeachment. The Times said Trump still privately talks about prosecuting Clinton and Comey, and has suggested a second special counsel to investigate them. Trump has publicly accused both Clinton and Comey of breaking the law while not providing any evidence of that, and it is unclear what legal grounds prosecutors would have to investigate either one.
