March 22, 2017
Washington, D.C. – Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released this statement after Chairman Nunes' comments to the press following his meeting with President Trump at the White House:

"The unprecedented comments of Chairman Nunes are an act of diversion and desperation.  The Chairman's highly irregular conduct with the White House raises serious questions about his impartiality, especially given his history as part of the Trump Transition team.  Abandoning any pretense of bipartisanship, Chairman Nunes raced to the White House and to the press to perpetuate the Trump Administration's misinformation campaign.

The Hill: Pelosi to Trump: Apologize for wiretap ‘fabrications’
March 20, 2017
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) says President Trump must apologize for claiming former President Barack Obama wiretapped him last year.

FBI Director James Comey said Monday the Department of Justice (DOJ) has "no information" supporting Trump's unverified claim from earlier this month.

"Director Comey's testimony put the last nail into President Trump's mendacious wiretapping claims," Pelosi said in a statement Monday, according to MSNBC.

"President Trump owes President Obama and the American people an apology for his disgraceful and incendiary fabrications."

Pelosi added Trump's wiretapping claims are a diversion from possible collusion between Russia and his 2016 presidential campaign.

"President Trump has been desperate to distract attention from the FBI investigation into the Kremlin's grip on his administration," she said.
