Watch live: White House holds news briefing

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders will answer reporters’ questions on Tuesday afternoon.

The briefing comes after FBI Director Christopher Wray offered a new timeline on the background check for former White House staff secretary Rob Porter that contradicts the White House’s account of when it learned of domestic abuse allegations against the aide.

Wray, in response to questions from Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), said that investigators submitted a partial report on their investigation of Porter as far back as March 2017, and that the investigation ended in July.

He said new information was also provided to the White House in November and January.

Sanders told reporters on Monday that the White House learned the full extent of the Porter allegations last Tuesday.

Multiple White House officials have claimed that the background check process was never closed.

The briefing is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m.
