Former FBI Director James Comey sat down for an interview with Chuck Todd, who asked him for his response to the report put out by the House Intel Committee Republican majority.
Todd brought up how President Trump believes this proves no collusion beyond any doubt.

That is not my understanding of what the facts were before I left the FBI, Comey said. And I think the most important piece of work is the one the special counsels doing now. This strikes me as a political document.

UPDATE:
Comey calls GOP-led Russia investigation a wreck
By DAVID BEAVERS 04/29/2018 10:35 AM EDT
Former FBI Director James Comey on Sunday panned the Republican House Intelligence Committees Russia report as a political document, charging its investigation wrecked the committee.
Asked on NBC's "Meet the Press" by host Chuck Todd to pass judgment on the committees investigation, Comey said, It wrecked the committee, and it damaged relationships with the FISA Court, the intelligence communities."
"It's just a wreck, Comey said.
The House Intelligence Committees Republican members endorsed a 253-page report Friday concluding its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, signaling the committee found no evidence of collusion between Donald Trump's campaign and Russia but affirming evidence that Russia interfered in the 2016 election.
