Like every time before, everybody denies Trump's claims and calls him crazy or a liar and then we always find out that he is always right...incredible.

Good try kids. Keep it up -- You are good little followers.....

Nunes completely discredited himself. Not because of the information but the way he handled the situation yesterday.

Much to do about nothing. Obama is still not on record asking for surveillance (I changed the word wiretap to make y'all happy)of Trump specifically or Trump Towers.
Obama is responsible for everything that his administration did.

Isn't it incredible! But remember these are the same people who insisted that Trump could never break Hillary's Blue Wall. And when he did, they promptly ran from it and started crying about the popular vote.

Not "nothing". Citizens of this country were recorded during surveillance of something unrelated to them. There was no active investigation, no warrant. But their names were released. OK, not "masked", which is essentially the same thing. Then allowed to be distributed to the public.

This is chilling. And goes against everything our constitution stands for.

It's clear the Obama Administration used this mechanism as a hit job against Trump. Just like they use the IRS to go after organizations that didn't support them. Just like Edward Snowden had to run for cover for exposing the Obama Spying. It goes on and on.

Still waiting for Pres. Obama in the Rose garden saying terrorist are we.

This sets up the POTUS to resign as his lies are now so huge he can no longer hide them.
Nunes should hang his head in shame for being such an idiot.

Agree, at this point, competently moving forward seems to be not only challenging, but 'tarnished' by partisanship (i.e. some folks seem to be putting Party before Country).

At this point, it would be helpful, from my perspective, for the investigations, while overlapping, to have 3 essential investigatory questions, with various inquiries stemming from each question.

The first investigative question is whether, or to what extent, Russian actions/behaviors interfered with 2016 US Presidential election. This is a non-partisan question however is not framed as such.

A second investigative question could seek to answer questions re: the leaks of surveillance data. This too is a non-partisan concern, bipartisan inquiries into these would benefit the Country.

A third investigative question could seek to answer questions re: whether or not the Trump machine, while in campaign mode, engaged in inappropriate, untoward or harmful dealings with Russian operatives before the election. This last series of questions is perhaps the most partisan of the three although it is surely worth noting Russian operatives are seeking to forward the best interests of Russia & not what is in the best interests of the American people & the United States of America.

Stating the perhaps obvious, the American people need to be made aware of the conclusions of any/all investigations & recommendations/corrective actions suggested by the findings. We may have to be patient while waiting for the results of these investigations, that's part of the process.

I assume this is the end of the House intelligence committee, between Nunes and Schiff's comments there is no hope going forward. Nunes never should have been the chair of this committee since he was on Trumps transition team.


He didn't do Trump a favor because there is bipartisan support for an independent intelligence committee, that is the last thing he wanted.
