President Trump on Monday morning lauded House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) as "a very courageous man" during his remarks at the swearing-in of CIA Director Gina Haspel.
"A very courageous man he's courageous," Trump said. "Thank you very much, Devin, for being here, appreciate it."
Nunes is in a tense standoff with the Justice Department over documents related to the opening of the counterintelligence investigation into Russian meddling in the U.S. election a request that Trump has backed but senior intelligence officials have warned could endanger lives.
A subpoena from Nunes for the documents last week with which the department has not yet complied led to the revelation that the FBI had used a confidential informant to investigate the Trump campaign's contacts with Russia during the election.
