White House press secretary Sarah Sanders briefed reporters on Wednesday afternoon, as President Donald Trump prepared to depart for the Swiss ski town of Davos, to attend the World Economic Forum. Trump is scheduled to address the annual gathering of world leaders and millionaires later this week, becoming the first president to do so in since Bill Clinton attended the conference in 2000.

Wednesday's briefing also came on the heels of a number of new revelations about the Special Counsel's investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Among them was the news that former national security adviser Michael Flynn was interviewed by the FBI in the White House on January 24, 2017, while he was serving as the nation's top national security official. At the time, Flynn did not tell his White House colleagues, or the president, about the interview.
