Deputy AG to brief Senate on Trump's firing of FBI's Comey

That's the word from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's office on Monday.

Last week, Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer said he made a request for Rosenstein to answer lawmakers' questions about his memo on Comey and the circumstances surrounding his dismissal.
