Former director of national intelligence James Clapper said Monday that he was not aware of an FBI investigation involving potential coordination between Russia and the Trump team before March, but reaffirmed nonetheless that he had not seen evidence of such coordination.

“I was not aware of the counterintelligence investigation [FBI] Director [James] Comey first referred to during his testimony before the House intelligence committee on March 20th, and that comports with my public statements,” Clapper told lawmakers during a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing on Russian election interference.
