A White House spokesperson said the House Intelligence Committee testimonies of former CIA Director John Brennan and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats confirmed that no “collusion” ever occurred between the Trump campaign and Russia.

The White House said the hearings “back up what we’ve been saying all along” and that after a year of investigations, “there is still no evidence of any Russia-Trump campaign collusion.”

The Daily Caller reports:

“This morning’s hearings back up what we’ve been saying all along,” a White House spokesman said in a statement Tuesday. “That despite a year of investigation, there is still no evidence of any Russia-Trump campaign collusion, that the president never jeopardized intelligence sources or sharing, and that even Obama’s CIA Director believes the leaks of classified information are ‘appalling’ and the culprits must be ‘tracked down.'”

Yet Democrats and the mainstream media both seemed to love Brennan’s testimony, because he said there were contacts between Russian officials and some “U.S. persons involved in the Trump campaign,” which is not illegal, and it’s not new information at all, considering it was reported by the New York Times all the way back on January 19th.

Despite multiple Obama administration officials admitting to spying on members of the Trump campaign, Brennan said the contacts “might have been totally, totally innocent and benign,” and that he doesn’t know “whether such collusion existed.”

In other words, Brennan still has absolutely no evidence of “collusion” between the Trump campaign and Russia.
