What's your explanation for Nunes claiming he has sources he won't reveal to his own investigative committee? No need to explain what is OBVIOUSLY fake news... BTW, the only clowns I see are the ones who buy in to this Russia baloney...

Unwavering Trump zealot Jason Miller says that the drama around Devin Nunes, much of which Trump is orchestrating, is getting in the way of Trump!!!

I'm annoyed that I just spent more than an hour of my life splitting hairs in an effort to explain a position contingent upon Nunes having evidence, and only now have noticed that he's pledging not to reveal it... which of course strongly suggests that there is no evidence to reveal.

One more reason to feel betrayed by the modern GOP.

Next up, will there be an investigation into Nunes?

Nunes's problem lies in the arcane rules of the House of Representatives. Buried in the rules regarding the House Intelligence Committee is a section that triggers a mandatory investigation into an allegation of spilling classified information.

“The Committee on Ethics shall investigate any unauthorized disclosure of intelligence or intelligence-related information,” reads the rule. The key to this rule is the phrase, “shall investigate”—a command, rather than a mere suggestion.

"Nunes will recuse in time." Or not; the House investigation is now pretty compromised. It's up to the Senate to keep us informed, and to the FBI to find possible criminal activities. Senate Intel Committee May Interview Ex-UK Spy Christopher Steele The Senate Intelligence Committee is in talks to interview Christopher Steele, the former British intelligence operative who compiled the dossier that alleges a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia, three sources with direct knowledge told NBC News. Steele, however, remains concerned about his safety and is not inclined to leave London. He is also concerned about how he might be treated by the Trump administration, according to the sources. The FBI was poised last fall to pay Steele, a former officer with the British Secret Intelligence Service, for information, but that deal fell through, sources familiar with the matter told NBC News. Two Congressional officials told NBC News that the Senate Intelligence Committee has not yet reached an agreement on how and when to interview the Trump associates who have volunteered to testify, including Paul Manafort, Carter Page and Roger Stone. If any of those men seek criminal immunity for their testimony, the committee would not be inclined to grant it, officials say. The committee could then subpoena them, but they could assert their Fifth Amendment rights and refuse to answer questions nbcnews.com Rep. Adam Schiff is determined to talk to Steele and will go to London ...
