A senior law enforcement official who asked not to be named told The Daily Beast late on Tuesday that President Donald Trump fired FBI Director James Comey to protect himself and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“President Putin can fire anybody. If Putin can put Trump in the White House, he can get rid of the FBI director,” the official told the Beast’s Michael Daly.

The official said, “Basically [Trump] is saying, ‘I’m firing Comey for doing the things that got me elected because I’m afraid people are going to find out who did the rest of the things to get me elected.’”

“The things that got Trump elected being Comey’s handling of the Hillary Clinton e-mail case. The other things being the Russian interference in the election,” said Daly.
