The news President Donald Trump’s former attorney\u00a0Michael Cohen met several times<\/strong>\u00a0with House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff and his staff before testifying before Congress “shouldn’t be shocking,” Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif.,\u00a0also a committee member, said Friday.<\/a><\/p>\n “They were clearly devising how they will roll out a new narrative,” the California Republican told\u00a0<\/a>Fox News’ “Fox and Friends.”<\/a>\u00a0“Despite all of that, they still came out and came out with a fake news story that has now been debunked.”<\/p>\n And no matter how much “witness tampering” was done, “you’re not going to find collusion in this unless you talk about the collision that the Democratic Party and the [Hillary] Clinton Campaign was doing with Russians,” Nunes said.<\/p>\n Even though he used the term witness tampering, Nunes acknowledged it was not in the legal sense, as there is “nothing illegal about talking to witnesses beforehand.”<\/p>\n However, if it was a “real investigation,” Republican and Democratic lawyers would have met with the lawyers of whoever was to testify, Nunes said.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, he said he finds speculation members of Trump’s family could face any kind of legal charges.<\/p>\n “The whole point of this Mueller investigation was, was there collusion or not?” Nunes said. “It is like this mythical creature that’s out there running around somewhere around the capital.
