Kellyanne Conway responded to yesterday’s testimony from FBI director James Comey, telling Fox & Friends the Congressional hearing produced no signs of collusion between President Trump and Russia.

“If you listen to the Democrats and many of their friends,” Conway said, “they insist that this collusion and its effect on the election — it simply was not there.”

Conway suggested that Russia’s alleged meddling was effectively debunked after Comey and NSA Director Michael Rogers revealed that there was no evidence vote tallies in the 2016 race had been tampered with. Conway also argued that the most troubling issue the House Intelligence Committee faced were leaks, like those which led to Michael Flynn’s dismissal as National Security Advisor.

At yesterday’s hearing, Director Comey said the FBI had been investigating potential Trump collusion with Russia since July of last year.

1. Conway is PAID to LIE for Republicans. She's a wall between Americans and transparent Government.

2. If Conway says "no"

you can be almost certain the answer is "yes"

3. Big difference between fact and fiction.

Accusation of Obama "wiretapping" that jackasses' tower: "No such evidence" and "Not even possible."

Collusion between campaign and Russia: "We're investigating."

How can Propaganda Minister Con Way get this backwards?

Simple!

Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie!

4. Oh, but Kellyanne, Dear...

If you watched the FULL hearing instead of just the little, tiny, bitsy snippet that you reference, you would see that it WAS THERE!

Is orange in your color pallet, sweetie????

6. What a respectable job - PAID LIAR...wonder what her family and friends think. GAH

[BumRushDaShow]

7. "'It Simply Was Not There'" - But we will always remember what

was not there but was there only because you said so!

8. And Conway has built up so much credibility!

9. The Obama Wiretap: It simply was not there, ConAir.

10. Did you all see that?!?!?! She just moved the lie forward a little.

“If you listen to the Democrats and many of their friends,” Conway said, “they insist that this collusion and its effect on the election — it simply was not there.”

Okay, she moved off from the lie, "there was no collusion" to it didn't have an "effect on the election".

11. How do you know when it's an on-going investigation?

[calimary]

12. This one's easy. If she says there's nothing to it,

then you KNOW there's a LOT to it!

Whatever she says, believe the opposite.

Simple and effective litmus test!

13. Who fucking asked her, and why is this LBN?

[tclambert]

14. Well, if Kellyanne says it, I'm reassured, because when has she ever gotten anything wrong?

All you survivors in Bowling Green just shut up!

[NCjack]

15. Recall, Kellyanne, you said that the FBI doesn't investigate innocent people. nt

16. ....says the woman who coined the term "alternate facts"!
