President Donald Trump’s unfounded claims that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower have drawn ire from many people, including members of his own party.
FBI Director James Comey on Monday said he has “no information that supports” Trump’s tweets accusing Obama of wiretapping him.
Richard Burr and Mark Warner, the Republican and Democratic (respectively) chairmen of the Senate Intelligence Committee, also said in a statement, “Based on the information available to us, we see no indications that Trump Tower was the subject of surveillance by any element of the United States government either before or after Election Day 2016.”
