When I heard this carefully phrased denial from James Clapper I thought it was very interesting:

“I will say that, for the part of the national security apparatus that I oversaw as DNI, there was no such wiretap”

That is a classic “non-denial denial” artfully phrased to limit the claim.

Paul Ryan used similar hedging: "The intelligence committees, in their continuing, widening, ongoing investigations of all things Russia, got to the bottom — at least so far with respect to our intelligence community — that no such wiretap existed.": Ryan on Trump's claims: 'No such wiretap existed'
