RUSH EXCERPT:
MADDOW: "In terms of what happened once Flynn was sworn in, once that warning happened, once he stayed on in the office, ultimately he does get fired. The president, you’ve testified to Congress and you write about in the book told you to lay off the investigation to Flynn. It’s been publicly reported that President Trump did more than just ask you himself. It’s been publicly reported that he also asked the director of national intelligence, Dan Coates, to intervene with you, to end the investigation into Flynn. You said in June that you never talked to DNI Coates on that subject. Did anybody at any time other than the president ever ask you to back off the Flynn investigation?"
COMEY: "No."
