GOP Lawmaker Blasts Trump Over Spy Claim

Rep. Tom Rooney (R-FL), a top Republican lawmaker on the House Intelligence Committee, is ripping President Trump’s unsupported claim that the FBI inserted a spy inside his campaign, Politico reports.

Said Rooney: “What is the point of saying that there was a spy in the campaign when there was none? You know what I’m saying? It’s like, ‘Lets create this thing to tweet about knowing that it’s not true.’ … Maybe it’s just to create more chaos but it doesn’t really help the case.”
