A day before a high-stakes hearing, the leaders of the House Intelligence Committee said Sunday there's no evidence to back President Trump's claims that Barack Obama wiretapped him, though the Republican chairman said investigators are looking at other types of possible surveillance of Trump and his aides during last year's campaign.

Monday's hearing features testimony from FBI Director James Comey, who has asked the Justice Department to publicly rebuke Trump's claims against Obama.
