Rep. Devin Nunes, once sidelined by an ethics inquiry from leading the House Intelligence Committee’s Russia probe, is reasserting the full authority of his position as chairman just as the GOP appears poised to challenge special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation of possible coordination between the Trump campaign and Russian officials.
The California Republican was cleared in December of allegations he improperly disclosed classified information while accusing the Obama administration of exposing the identities of Trump affiliates on surveillance reports. Since clearing his name, Nunes has stepped up his attacks on Mueller’s team and the law enforcement agencies around it, including convening a group of Intelligence Committee Republicans to draft a likely report on “corruption” among the investigators working for the special counsel.
Though Nunes has not officially wrested his panel’s Russia probe back from the Republicans he deputized to run it, the chairman’s reemergence as a combative Trump loyalist has raised alarm among Democrats that the future of the investigation may be clipped short or otherwise undermined. Even some of Nunes’s GOP allies have expressed concern about his tactics, prompting rare public warnings that he should temper his attacks on federal law enforcement.
Nunes has already signaled his decision about the legitimacy of the probe.
Nunes, meanwhile, appears to have made up his mind about the House Intelligence Committee probe into the allegations surrounding Trump and Russia, expressing his convictions in an interview with Fox News.
“We have no evidence of Russia collusion between the Trump campaign” and Russia, Nunes said.
Yeah so much for letting the evidence lead to a conclusion.
This to me also indicates the fear that Trump and his supporters feel about the Russia probes, and their growing realization that it may end the Trump presidency.
And we should also consider that Nunes himself may be a target of the Mueller team for his bizarre and transparent attempts to sabotage the Russian investigations in their earliest days.
HINT to trump and enablers. You cant hide your lying eyes @@ The world is watching.
ReplyDeleteSeth Abramson has a list of the names of traitors who've taken Russian money; that's definitely a crime. Oh, is this going to be fun watching these a&&holes get creamed.
ReplyDeleteLooks more and more like Nunes might be complicit in this whole steaming mess.
ReplyDeleteNunes is going to go to jail with the rest of them, He is as guilty as sin of working with the Russians and proves it every day.
ReplyDeleteEither Nunes is complicit or there's another crime he or someone near and dear has committed that T.Rump's handlers know about- women? Boys? Or money?
ReplyDeleteWtf? Mueler is breathing down Trump's little short, fat neck causing him to be in panic mode.
DeleteSo why is Nunes in panic mode?
Go get'em Bob.
Nunes is Trumps lackey all the way. Rotten to the core.

ReplyDeleteThe GOP is no longer the party of family values, and they're no longer the law and order party.
ReplyDeleteAs far back as 60yrs the republican party has not been about family, law or order. That has been a smoke screen lie. They are not even conservative. A conservative label means they want to balance budget, conserve natural resources, conserve social programs, but the current republicans are nothing more than war mongering, wasteful, selfish, hateful, liars. They have caused more problems than they fix. They are a disgrace to our political system, our constitution, our standing in the world and divide families. All of them enabled trump to dump America. They should be thrown out of the congress today and charged with treason and espionage. Sanction the entire republican party, they cannot vote on issues and bills. Cut all benefits and wage. And remove ALL lobbyist. NO moore money in elections. Overturn Citizen United now.
DeleteDoes nunes hang out with that freak in California that wants California to secede from the usa and align with Russia? Is he invested in the Russian gas company in California? He appears to be a cockroach.
ReplyDelete'“We have no evidence of Russia collusion between the Trump campaign” and Russia, Nunes said. '
ReplyDeleteThat's a moot point by now. It's now a matter of conspiracy. A much, much more serious charge:

He may have no evidence, but Mueller does.
ReplyDeleteWith luck Nunes will be taken out in November.
My guess is when the Russians & the Trump campaign were doing their hacking or looking for blackmail material, they got some dirt on Nunes, Lindsey Graham and maybe even Paul Ryan. Orrin Hatch has been acting a fool these days, too, so let's put old Orrin on the blackmail list, too.
ReplyDeleteThink Hatch has seen the list and is now not running.
DeleteGo back to magic underwear land where you belong and leave the rest of us alone.
Johnathon Winters was absolutely correct when he stated that "the blacks need to go back to Africa. Asians back to Asia. Whites back to Europe and let the Native Americans re-negotiate a new immigration policy."
