Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski was questioned on by the House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday where he refused to answer anything they asked about the time since he left the campaign.
Billy House from Bloomberg pointed it out on Twitter, saying that the former campaign manager would not answer questions pertaining to the time after he was fired from the Trump campaign in late June 2016.
According to House, Lewandowski would also not answer questions about whether he had spoken to Trump about his testimony.

Included in the questions Lewandowski would not answer was: "Did you have a conversation with the president of the United States within the last 24 hours where you discussed your testimony?" said Schiff.

Lewandowski’s refusal to answer the questions contradict White House’s deputy chief of staff for legislative affairs Rick Dearborn’s testimony.
Lewandowski would not discuss whether Trump talked to him about his testimony, for instance, Schiff said. This is in contrast to Dearborn, who answered all the committee’s questions.
