...White House, at least to the best of my knowledge, has tried to use any information to in any way improperly influence the RTC or any federal agency." So said President Clinton last week in his televised news conference -- but his words do not quite jibe with a story that special counsel Robert Fiske and a Whitewater grand jury were hearing almost simultaneously. Fiske's probers, TIME has learned, are weighing charges that White House aides tried -- though unsuccessfully -- to force the firing of the lawyer heading a civil investigation for the government's Resolution Trust Corporation that is closely...
