Former FBI director James Comey dismissed the importance of a House Intelligence Committee report that concluded President Donald Trump’s campaign did not collude with Russia, calling it a “political document.” The Republican-led investigation into the 2016 election was “a wreck,” Comey said on NBC’s Meet the Press. “That is not my understanding of what the facts were before I left the FBI and I think the most important piece of work is the one the special counsel’s doing now,” Comey said. Partisanship rancor surrounding the investigation “wrecked the committee,” the former FBI chief said. “And it damaged relationships with the FISA [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] court, the intelligence communities. It’s just a wreck.”
