President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski declined to answer questions Wednesday from the House Intelligence Committee about any topic after his departure from the presidential campaign, the panel’s top Democrat told reporters.
"Mr. Lewandowski said he was not prepared to answer those questions today," said Representative Adam Schiff of California, noting the episode came one day after Trump’s former chief strategist Steve Bannon refused to answer many of the panel’s questions because he said the White House may want to assert executive privilege.
