House Speaker Paul Ryan, who initially seemed to be supporting the move to investigate the President’s allegations, now concurs with the statement from the Senate Intelligence Committee. He commented the same day thereafter on the issue of wiretaps at Trump Tower, “We’ve cleared that up. That—that we’ve seen no evidence of that.”

The House Intelligence Committee is also carrying out its own investigation of the Russian interference in the 2016 election, and Chairman Devin Nunes commented on his take on the alleged wiretapping of Trump Tower under Obama. Like Rep. Ryan, Rep. Nunes simply said that he doesn’t believe “there was an actual tap of Trump Tower.” Unlike Ryan, though, he did point out that he interprets the official statement from the Senate Intelligence Committee as a broader pushback against the President.
