This is an example of how total ignorance of how our government works creates a situation where someone like Donald Trump can be elected in the first place. The "low information voter...." people who don't know a damned thing about how our country works, and don't care that they don't know.
And how did "Knowing Everything" about the Government and how it works, work out for you? You lot, big time, so how did that happen to one who knows how it works? The President is entitled to every piece of paper and document on any investigation by any intelligence Agency in HIS Administration. (Notice the "HIS" Administration) by just asking. Or did you think "Commander in Chief" is an "Honorary" title for News ops?

Take that stuff your trying to peddle to the Liberals and Democrats that still think Hillary won the election. You all can agree with each other, and make as much difference as you did in the election.

Could be. So why didn't he tell him true stuff so Trump doesn't look like such a doofus?

Freedom Watch/Montgomery's letter on unmasking and who knows what all comes flying in to support their efforts, however futile.

Because nobody cares whether Flynn's name was redacted or not, we want to know what the Russian business was all about.
Of course the Public cares about some one in Government committing a Felony. Only the Liberals and Snowflakes think they are above the Law, and no one should care if they are Criminals, as long as they think its OK. Sorry, it doesn't work that way. Trump is in charge, and now Law Enforcement will apply to everyone. Donald is cleaning out the swamp and will eventually get to every Obama holdover who is still sabotaging his Administration. We have seen him already fire and purge undesirables and you still have a lot to see coming. Sit back and enjoy, like we do. I love to see Snowflakes in Panic Mode, and bouncing off walls in desperation.

Its OK if you want to blame Russia for your failures, since with Democrats and Snowflakes, its always some one else's fault.

How do you spell "Doofus?" According to the Democrats, its spelled "Bernie." Isn't that what they called him in the DNC when they conspired against him? The NEW Doofus will be Obama, in recorded History. NIxon will finally get some slack and Obama will take his place.

No he didn't. He told his Boss whats in the intelligence reports, which Trump has a right to see at any time he pleases. Trump is smart and letting Congress do the Job instead of interfering in it so the Democrats can cry foul, which they do at every drop of the hat. Nunes owes the Democrats nothing. He isn't their President, according to their own words, so they have nothing to add or contribute thats useful to anyone.

Come on - do you actually think that during all the investigations that occurred during Obama's watch no one reported to him, Hillary ect on a daily basis about what had transpired during these committee hearings and what had been discovered that they would be addressing? To trust anyone in gov't is ridiculous.

You wish. Thats like saying the Bus Driver needs to be fired because he isn't heading toward the place you want him to go, and is following the route he should be. Typical Liberal nonsense.

Or do ya'll have another agenda?
Pretty ignorant assessment, considering Trump is Commander in Chief and the Intelligence Services all work for him with his picked people in charge. The President has access to any Documents or Investigations in "ANY" of the Intel Agencies at any time he requests it.

Congress may have an "oversight" Committee, but they have no power of Enforcement. They may "Oversee" but they don't run it. Trump runs it. Thats what he was elected to do, or did you miss that part?

How many times does a Lawyer or a Judge have to tell you that if the name of a "Citizen" comes up in a Monitored conversation, it is required to be "Masked Immeadiately, by Law, and only unmasked by request of some one who is authorized, and has a good reason for requiring the real Name. They may not have to stop the collection, but they are required to mask any real names of any Citizen. Period.

You must be from another country. The POTUS answers to Congress here. Not the other way around.

They impeach the president. Not the other way around.
