The FBI interviewed two former White House lawyers as part of its investigation of records taken to Trump's estate in Florida
The FBI interviewed former White House Counsel Pat Cipollone and his former deputy Patrick Philbin earlier this year as part of the investigation into federal records taken to Donald Trump's Palm Beach home, two people briefed on the matter said.
The two are the most senior former Trump officials interviewed in what is now a criminal investigation of possible mishandling of classified information and obstruction. The two men are among a group of former Trump aides whom the FBI interviewed after the criminal probe got underway this spring, the people briefed on the matter said. The New York Times earlier reported the interviews. Cipollone and Philbin declined to comment to CNN for this story.
