According to a report in CNN, Republican and Democratic lawmakers and aides have not found evidence that the Obama administration did anything unusual or illegal after reviewing some of the same intelligence reports brought to light by House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes. Their assessment contradicts that of President Trump, who alleged that former Obama national security adviser Susan Rice broke the law by requesting that certain identities of U.S. individuals be "unmasked." Rice defended her actions last week on MSNBC, saying her requests were “absolutely not for any political purposes, to spy, or anything.” Last week, Nunes recused himself temporarily from the ongoing Russia investigation as the House Ethics Committee announced it was investigating whether Nunes revealed classified materials.
