Always special to be a parrot and explain everything as a positive when you know nothing about any of them.

Pretty safe to read, CNN, The Hill, MSNBC, ABC etc and just assume the opposite.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes on Thursday stepped down temporarily from his role leading the committee’s probe of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign and possible surveillance of Trump associates by the prior administration.

Nunes in a statement cited the efforts of "several leftwing activist groups" to lodge "entirely false and politically motivated" accusations against him with the Office of Congressional Ethics as his reason for sidelining himself.

Rep. Mike Conaway, R-Texas, is now set to lead the Russia/spying probe "with assistance" from Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., and Rep. Tom Rooney, R-Fla.

Nunes said he would "continue to fulfill all my other responsibilities as Committee Chairman" and had requested to speak with the Ethics office "in order to expedite the dismissal of these false claims."

In a written statement, Nunes suggested the accusations against him were timed to distract from reports about the names of Trump associates being "unmasked" in intelligence files during the latter weeks of the Obama administration by former National Security Adviser Susan Rice.

"The charges are entirely false and politically motivated, and are being leveled just as the American people are beginning to learn the truth about the improper unmasking of the identities of U.S. citizens and other abuses of power," he said.

A source close to Nunes called the alleged Democrat-led campaign to file complaints with the Office of Congressional Ethics a "clever political trick." Even if vindicated -- which Nunes believes he will be -- too much political damage had already been done for Nunes to remain in his role leading the Russia/spying investigations, the source said.

Another congressional staffer agreed with the claim that the complaints were a "coordinated tactic" organized by Democrats, and said the move was made to get the conversation off of Rice. The staffer said the news came on the eve of the Easter recess in order for it to have maximum impact.

Yes, clearly Nunes running to Trump with information leaked by the white house, hiding information from the rest of the intelligence council, compromping the entire investigation, and then bumbling through a press interview was a coordinated left wing effort.

What a cool weak to be hapless reach for anything Liberalatariantard!!!!

RaceBannon

There is no Russia investigation. Hope this helps. Its over. We've moved on to the biggest abuser of power since Watergate

Nunes is showing the beginning of a spine for the GOP. He should have told them to fuck off and stayed, but at least he went out with guns blazing and will still be chair. Baby steps

Obama has been spying on Trump since July and there is nothing. NOTHING.

Sledog

Such a huge scandal. Makes Watergate look like child's play.

Trey Gowdy. Love watching him chew up lying commie lib morons.

Pitchfork51

Such a useless and dumb supposed scandal.

I'm pretty sure everyone with half a brain realizes that all this shit goes round and round and never leads to anything happening.
