Abcs Chief Justice correspondent Pierre Thomas has more. Congressman, was there a spy . Reporter today, congressional leaders and senior members of the white house staff heading to the Justice Department for a classified briefing after president trumps unsubstantiated claim that the Obama Administration planted a spy in his 2016 campaign. We now call it spygate. Reporter he says its starting to look like one of the biggest political scandals in u. S. History. But has provided no proof. The president s accusations triggered by a New York Times report that an fbi informant questioned two Trump Campaign advisers about their contacts with russian operatives. The use of such informants is routine, and the times never mentioned anything about a spy inside the campaign. Still, the president ordered Justice Department officials to brief republicans in congress. What im doing is a service to this country.
