Advisers and personal associates of President Trump have reportedly advised him in recent days to hire an outside lawyer, as controversies surrounding his campaign's alleged ties to Russia mount.

On Tuesday, news reports citing a memo Comey reportedly composed shortly after speaking with Trump in mid-February said that Trump urged Comey to let "go" of the investigation into his former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
