President Trump questioned why the FBI and DOJ did not inform him that there were FBI informants in his 2016 presidential campaign Saturday.

The president also called the Russia investigation “rigged” and mentioned that there were conflicts of interest between the FBI informants under the Obama administration and their role in the Trump campaign. (RELATED: Clapper: ‘Obama Had No Knowledge’ Of FBI Informant In The Trump Campaign)
