Yeah, but the media made it seem like Trump was crazy that he was under surveillance.

Him blaming Obama wasn't a good move.

Wait, so does this mean that Comey lied under oath, then, on Monday?

So little Trumpy could sniff and say 'I feel vindicated'--made me want to throw up.

This is not his call. Now the other members of the Intelligence Committee and the FBI will have to also come out and clarify Nunes murky innuendos and BS due to overinflating the importance of a routine investigation to get a pat on the head from Trump.

He's taking his loyal soldier role way to far. What a disgusting display this was. It's looking very Watergatish with Nunes giving cover, if not illegally, way out of bounds. Got his head way too far up Trump's butt to be bipartisan and he should be stripped of his Chair title. What a flaming jerk--this admin is ridiculous.

They are making a mockery of the government and the more intelligent people in the country who see through this garbage. And the fact is Trump is still a childish slanderous liar.
Every body has their Lord and Master. For some it is Hillary and Obama. For some Trump. Some politicians seem to even praise CIA. We just pick our poison. Nunes is going to say there is something. Schiff is going to say there is nothing. Schiff said FBI is withholding information a week back. Same week Nunes said, there is no wire tapping and no collusion and he is fine with FBI. Now he is saying not sure about FBI. Schiff likes FBI now unlike a week back. Maxim waters is actually consistent with her approach to impeaching Trump. She says, he is going to do it himself.

I thought all Comey said was that Obama didn't order any wiretaps and that the Trump campaign was under investigation. Those aren't contradictory statements, and doesn't conflict with anything Nunes said today. Am I missing something?

Ah, okay. I thought he said that Trump wasn't wiretapped at all. But I guess I missed the part where he said "Obama didn't order any wiretaps". Makes sense.

If the Trump campaign was under investigation it HAD to come from the POTUS. It had to. If not are you telling everyone here that our intelligence agencies are rogue and just do whatever they want? I don't really buy that.

Just the tin-foil hat conspiracy.

The title of this thread is NO NEWS. If Trump's team was communicating with Russia and Russia was being surveilled, as we know they are, then there will be incidental surveillance. If Trump's team did NOT communicate with Russia while Russia was being surveilled, then there will be no incidental surveillance. Easy peasy.

Yes ... but this sure seems like it was information that was leaked to Nunes that Nunes in turn leaked to the press for maximum political value framing it to his advantage. And not two DAYS after hearings that featured the harm that could come from leaking intelligence.

Democrats on the committee appeared blindsided by Nunes' announcement. Rep. Jim Himes said he spoke with ranking Democratic member Adam Schiff, and that neither of them are familiar with the evidence Nunes is citing.
C'mon folks. This is a bit much. Total political dysfunction. Anyone seriously expect the House Intelligence Committee to work well to investigate the serious matter of Russian influence in the election?
