Former FBI Director James Comey has been charged with lying to Congress. The case is linked to his investigation into possible Russian interference in the 2016 election. Trump was angered by the probe, which suggested that his campaign had colluded with Russia to win the election. Trump has long called for Comey to face criminal charges.
Comey is now accused of making false statements and obstructing justice in his testimony to lawmakers about the case. If convicted, he could face up to five years in prison. Comey released a video statement on social media saying that he knew there would be a price to pay for standing up to Trump, but that he was not afraid of the consequences.
