House Intelligence Committee Chair Devin Nunes went to the White House on Wednesday afternoon to personally brief President Trump about intelligence he says he has seen regarding surveillance of foreign nationals during the presidential transition. “I very much appreciated the fact that they found what they found.”Before heading to the White House, Nunes said he briefed House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) on what he learned, and he also spoke with reporters. The chairman would not answer the question of whether anyone associated with the White House was the source of the new information. White House press secretary Sean Spicer said that Nunes was headed to the White House on Wednesday afternoon to brief the president. There has to be a reason for the unmasking,” he told CNN after going to the White House.
