It was not clear what prompted Trump’s new charge. The president often tweets about reports he reads on blogs and conservative-leaning websites.
In recent days, the Breitbart News website has published reports citing other anonymously sourced or unconfirmed reports about the Obama administration’s attempts to investigate Trump campaign ties to Moscow.
The Associated Press has not confirmed those reports.
Steve Bannon, Trump’s chief strategist in the White House, is the former executive chairman of Breitbart News.
Trump is spending the weekend at his waterfront estate in Palm Beach, Florida, after highlighting his education agenda and support for school choice on Friday by visiting a Catholic school in Orlando. Trump had no public events scheduled during the weekend.
After tweeting Saturday about Obama, as well as about Arnold Schwarzenegger’s decision to leave “The New Celebrity Apprentice,” Trump went to his golf club in nearby West Palm Beach. Schwarzenegger replaced Trump as host of the show while the president remained its executive producer.
Trump planned to return to the White House late Sunday.
