Comey: Neither The FBI or DOJ Have Any Evidence to Back Trump's Wiretapping Claims

"With respect to the President's tweets about alleged wiretapping directed at him by the prior administration, I have no information that supports those tweets," Comey said. "We [FBI and DOJ] have no information that supports them." 

"No president could [unilaterally order a wiretap of anyone]," he continued. 

Nearly three weeks ago, President Trump sent out the following tweets, which Comey referred to during his testimony.

The White House maintains President Trump was referring to overall surveillance, not specifically to wiretapping.
