Trump added to Wikipedia Obstruction of Justice page

Someone seemingly using an IP address associated with the House of Representatives added Donald Trump’s name to a Wikipedia article on obstruction of justice Thursday morning—at the same time former FBI Director James Comey took the stand to testify in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee investigating the president’s possible collusion with the Kremlin.

@CongressEdits, an automated Twitter bot that announces all edits made to Wikipedia pages with IP addresses from within the U.S. Congress, noted the "Obstruction of Justice" Wikipedia article had been anonymously edited at about 11:00 a.m. EDT, just one hour after Thursday’s open hearing on Capitol Hill kicked off. A major focal point of Comey’s blockbuster testimony is whether Trump fired the ex-director to intervene and weaken an investigation into his campaign’s ties to Russia, as well as whether he obstructed justice by asking Comey to “let go” of a probe into his former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.

The edit was removed from Wikipedia within the hour.
