Former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson met with a handful of House members and staffers for seven hours to discuss Trump's foreign policy decision-making, including issues related to Russia

It was unclear whether the discussions touched at all on the topic of Russia's suspected support of Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation of those allegations.

But he may have insight into how Trump dealt with Russia once he took office. The U.S. president has been criticized for his efforts to curry favor with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Trump fired Tillerson after the two clashed on several fronts, including on how to handle the Iran nuclear deal, which Trump abandoned despite reservations from Tillerson. Tillerson is reported to have once called Trump a “moron” behind his back.
