Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the House Intelligence Committee’s top Democrat, said Wednesday there’s “more than circumstantial evidence” indicating collusion between Russian government officials and associates of President Donald Trump. Schiff told NBC’s “Meet the Press” earlier this week that “there is circumstantial evidence of collusion” and “direct evidence” of deception by the president’s campaign. He added to the assessment on Wednesday, saying he’s now aware of firmer evidence indicating collusion. “I can’t go into the particulars, but there is more than circumstantial evidence now,” Schiff said in an interview with MSNBC’s Chuck Todd. “You have seen direct evidence of collusion?” Todd asked.
