Ex-CIA director: Firing Comey sends 'chills'

The White House shocked Washington by announcing that FBI director James Comey "has been terminated and removed from office".

Michael Hayden, former director of the National Security Agency and CIA, says that while President Trump has every right to dismiss Mr Comey, his "dramatic step" "sends a chill throughout the federal bureaucracy".
