Trump's lead lawyer in federal Russia probe resigns
President Donald Trump's lead lawyer in the US investigation of Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election said on Thursday he had resigned.
"I love the president and wish him well," Washington attorney John Dowd told Reuters in an email.
The resignation was first reported on Thursday by the New York Times, citing sources, including one who said Trump was increasingly ignoring Dowd's advice.
Dowd did not immediately comment on why he resigned.
