Story highlights "We don't think that there was a conflict at all," Sanders saidTrump's two early morning tweets appeared contradictoryWashington (CNN) White House press secretary Sarah Sanders insisted Thursday that President Donald Trump's Thursday morning tweets about legislation to reauthorize FISA surveillance programs were not contradictory. The tweets came hours before the House was set to vote on a bill to reauthorize the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and an amendment that would have reined in some of the government's surveillance powers. "We don't think that there was a conflict at all," Sanders said. "The President fully supports the 702 and was happy to see that it passed the House today. We don't see any contradiction or confusion in that."
