Giuliani said it was, "Because Comey would not say that he, Trump, wasn't a target."

In our news wrap Thursday, the White House has a new reason for why President Trump fired James Comey as FBI Director. In a Fox News interview, presidential lawyer Rudy Giuliani said it was "because Comey would not say that he, Trump, wasn't a target" in the Russia investigation. Also, Iran's foreign minister insisted that his government will not agree to any changes to the 2015 nuclear deal.
