DNC deputy communications director Adrienne Watson released the following statement following FBI Director James Comey’s testimony today in the Senate Judiciary Committee:

“While Director Comey believes Russia is ‘the greatest threat of any nation on earth’ to our democratic process and predicted future Kremlin-sponsored attacks on our elections, Trump continues to give cover to Putin by questioning the conclusion of 17 intelligence agencies and failing to deliver the cyber security report he promised. 

“Comey’s comments are a chilling reminder that President Trump has been willing to ignore a grave threat to our national security because it works well for him personally.”
