WikiLeaks has poked fun at US President Donald Trump on Twitter, appealing for taped conversations between former FBI Director James Comey and the commander-in-chief.

“James Comey better hope that there are no ‘tapes’ of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press,” Trump tweeted on Friday, to which WikiLeaks fired a swift call-to-arms response.

Trump fired Comey from his position as FBI director Tuesday. Comey had been leading an investigation into allegations the Trump election campaign colluded with Russia.

In an interview with NBC Thursday he said, “this Russia thing” was on his mind when he fired Comey, but claimed the main reason was due to the condition of the FBI, which he claimed was “in turmoil.”

The president’s latest comments came in a series of tweets where he also warned of possible new White House protocols following criticism of his media “surrogates.” Trump asked if he should cancel all press briefings and instead hand out “written responses for the sake of accuracy?”
