They did so at the behest of the “number three” person at the DOJ, according to the legal document. The agents tailed Comey and his wife even as they visited the grave of their deceased son, according to the filing. A government document obtained by Comey’s team revealed that “POTUS was requesting a copy of the interview notes to use in his 6 p.m. press conference.” One Secret Service agent described the interview as “a hot topic on the plane,” noting that Trump was “very interested,” according to the Times. Trump has been very public about his contempt for Comey since the FBI director led the investigation into Trump’s ties to Russia following the 2016 presidential election.
