The top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee said Thursday that nothing revealed by Justice Department officials during a classified briefing supported President Trump’s claim that the feds planted a spy in his campaign.

“Today’s Gang of Eight briefing was conducted to ensure protection of sources and methods,” California Rep. Adam Schiff said in a statement, using the term that referred to a bipartisan group of leading lawmakers.

“Nothing we heard today has changed our view, that there is no evidence to support any allegation that the FBI, or any intelligence agency, placed a spy in the Trump campaign or otherwise failed to follow appropriate procedures and protocols.”

House and Senate lawmakers from both parties huddled with top intelligence officials Thursday for classified briefings after Trump accused the Justice Department of spying on his 2016 campaign.

Trump — without citing evidence — named his latest attempt at discrediting special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe “Spygate.”

In recent days, he zeroed in on reports that a longtime US government informant approached three members of his campaign in a bid to gather intelligence on Russian efforts to sway the election.

Trump intensified his attacks Thursday, tweeting that it was “Starting to look like one of the biggest political scandals in US history.”

Trump’s broadsides set the stage for the unusual decision by the White House to arrange a briefing about classified documents that was originally scheduled for just two Republican House members, Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes and Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Trey Gowdy.

After Democrats objected, the Justice Department scheduled a second briefing for bipartisan congressional leaders with the same intelligence officials.

But the attendee list for each meeting shifted almost hourly, with House Speaker Paul Ryan saying Thursday morning that he would attend the first meeting and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi later announcing that Schiff would also attend the first meeting.

The second meeting included Schiff, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer, Pelosi, Senate Intelligence Committee leaders Richard Burr (R-NC) and Mark Warner (D-Va.), who later called Trump’s spy claim “a misstatement.”
