CNN reported late Tuesday that longtime informal Trump adviser Roger Stone influenced his decision to fire Comey:
Longtime Trump ally Roger Stone was among those who recommended to the President that he fire Comey, according to a source familiar with the conversation. Stone, who also is being scrutinized by the FBI as part of its Russia investigation, spoke to Trump after Comey appeared at a hearing last week on Capitol Hill, according to the source.
That would be troublesome given Stone is also a person of interest in the Russia investigation — particularly in regards to his communications with the hacker Guccifer 2.0.
Trump isn't just denying this; he's denying he talked to Stone recently at all:

The Roger Stone report on @CNN is false - Fake News. Have not spoken to Roger in a long time - had nothing to do with my decision.
