"To any rational person," says Nunes, "It looks like they were scheming to produce a get-out-of-jail-free card-for the president and anyone else in the White House. They were playing Monopoly while the others were playing with fire. Now the Obama White House was in the clear-sure, they had no idea what Comey and Brennan and McCabe and Strzok and the rest were up to." Boxing Trump in on Russia Meanwhile, Obama added his voice to the Trump-Russia echo chamber as news stories alleging Trump's illicit relationship with the Kremlin multiplied in the transition period.
Any criticism of Obama's response, never mind an attempt to reverse it, would only further fuel press reports that Trump was collaborating with the Russians.
Obama's biggest move against Trump was to order CIA director John Brennan to conduct a full review of all intelligence relating to Russia and the 2016 elections.
According to senior administration officials, "American intelligence agencies have concluded with 'high confidence' that Russia acted covertly in the latter stages of the presidential campaign to harm Hillary Clinton's chances and promote Donald J. Trump." A December 14 NBC News story by William M. Arkin, Ken Dilanian, and Cynthia McFadden reported that "Russian President Vladimir Putin became personally involved in the covert Russian campaign to interfere in the U.S. presidential election, senior U.S. intelligence officials told NBC News." The ICA that Obama ordered gave political operatives, the press, and his intelligence chiefs a second shot at Trump.
Part of the evidence that Putin supported Trump is that he avoided praising Trump.
"A combination of partisan hacks from the left and people who hated Trump on the right." Democrats led by Schiff and Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer were joined by the late John McCain, the most active of the Never Trump Republicans.
No Evidence of Collusion Years Later Still, Nunes believed that all the talk of Trump and Russia was a waste of time.
