The KGB Oracle Forums General Public Discussion (SPECIAL ACCESS) KGB Political Debate Central Journalisming

Your shiny hat must be obscuring your vision, it flew well wide of the post.

How so?

House intel chairman tries to vindicate his boy Trump by going to everyone, including the Media before discussing with the rest of the House intel Committee. He obviously can't do his job sufficiently. This political move was a total sham and he should recuse himself. House panels credibility is now at zero which means we are hopefully going to get an Independent Select Committee.

The fact that you don't see how bad he fucked up sort of scares me lol.

Can we all just agree that Trump lied about Obama wire tapping him. We all know hes doubling down on this lie,its getting really sad at this point. Whats that feeling you get when you feel really sad and embarrassed for another human being? That's what I'm feeling for him right now.

The Senator reported to the President news of felony violations of federal law. The Congress has no law enforcement powers under the Constitution. That power lies with the Executive branch. If the Senator has evidence of illegal activity, would it not be his duty to report such violations?

That's the puzzling thing, he had nothing. It was pure political theater to try and save Donnie but it completely backfired. He is unfit to serve as Chairman due to his obvious conflicts of interest and needs to step down.

How do you know he has nothing? Or that anything backfired?

He basically said so at his presser

I think he apologised for not consulting other members of the committe, unnecessarily in my opinion, but that does not mean there has not been a felony violation of the law.

You think? Have you even watched any of Devin Nunes' pressers?

REP. DEVIN NUNES (R-Calif.) on Monday denounced what he described as the illegal leak of classified information concerning conversations between associates of Donald Trump and Russian officials. He insisted that those who described those contacts to the press be tracked down and prosecuted. He demanded that FBI Director James B. Comey confirm that such revelations “violate . . . a section of the Espionage Act that criminalizes the disclosure of information concerning the communication and intelligence activities of the United States.”

Forty-eight hours later, Mr. Nunes himself held a news conference in which he cited a confidential source to describe what clearly appeared to be classified information about intercepted communications involving Trump associates. He did this outside the White House, where he had rushed to brief the president about the intercepts — even though the House Intelligence Committee he chairs is supposed to be investigating the Trump campaign’s possible connections with Russia.
