White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Monday that he is not aware of anyone in President Donald Trump’s administration who has been interviewed by the FBI as part of its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

“Has anyone from the White House, up to the President, been interviewed by the FBI as part of this investigation?” Associated Press reporter Julie Pace asked Spicer at his daily briefing.

“Not that I’m aware of,” Spicer said.

FBI Director James Comey on Monday confirmed to the House Intelligence Committee that his agency is conducting an ongoing investigation into whether members of Trump’s campaign coordinated with the Russian government before the 2016 election.

“There is NO EVIDENCE of a Trump-Russia scandal,” a White House official told TPM in an email. “There is NO EVIDENCE of Trump-Russia collusion.”

  1. I think this tells you all you need to know. There’s something major percolating. They don’t need to talk to you.

    1 / Not yet.

    2 / Manafort, Flynn, Stone, Page, Tillerson, Cohen, Assange, Sessions and many other bad actors are not in the White House. This was an incomplete question and an evasive answer. Expect more of same.

    3 / This WH will never admit to anything, of course. This is a feature, not a bug.

    4 / When Tramp is gone (whether brain embolism, suicide, quitting, or criminal probe, etc.) his various handlers and supporters will be shocked! shocked! by the tell-all tales that will emanate for months about the madcap criminality and insanity that started over a year ago…

    Yep. Someone or some people have been interviewed. Its the law of this OppositeDayEveryDay administration.

  4. SpiceBunny is still laboring under the delusion that he has half a clue as to what is going on…

    A wasted mind is a terrible thing to waste…
