People keep asking Devin Nunes, "Did you work with the White House on "The Memo" you wrote?" His answer: silence. He won't deny it. Which means he probably did work with Trump's lawyers to craft a memo to trash the FBI and to protect Trump.
Nunes is actively obstructing justice to protect Trump. He is totally abusing his position as head of the House intelligence committee.
No, he answered the question: "As far as I know, no."
Since he's making the case for the last 12 months that he's a total imbecile, that 'as far as I know' comment is a good out for him.
He either did or he didn't, anything else is trying to cover his ass for when it's revealed that he did.
Interesting document. And the reading of it is quite educational. Apparently there is a lot of classified info in this document. No wonder the FBI is concerned. Even the people in that committee are concerned. And as they point out doing it like this will cause serious issues for them as apparently it breaks the agreement to not release classified data.
But to the point. Nunes has refused to make that statement in public. But he has made it to the committee. I suspect lying to the committee would be something he thought he could get away with. But clearly he has denied it....sooooo if it turns out to be untrue...what will the consequence be?
The link won't open for me. Do you care to copy and paste relevant excerpts?
Its a scanned file thats in pdf form. I doubt he can very easily. Could run it through a OCR I suppose...
But I'd try and figure out why it doesn't open-it is in fact fairly interesting to read, and if you read it you can see just how much nonsense this whole thing is.

Does it have to do with unmasking and the recorded Flynn conversations with Kislyak? Here's an article making that claim.
Quote:
FNC's Tucker Carlson looks at the story claiming that former Obama administration national security adviser Susan Rice spied on Donald Trump's transition team - and lied about it. He says it is probably legal for her to have done so, but it shows our government has no serious protection against surveillance of American citizens.
"Let's drop the silly euphamisms," he said. "Monitoring the communications of your political opponents, and then trampling measures designed to protect their identities, isn't 'incidental collection' and it isn't regular above-the-board behavior, it is spying. IT probably wasn't illegal, in fact, U.S. law gives tremendous latitude to intelligence agencies to surveil Americans, as well as to the White House where officials there claim they need to see this information and pass it along to other parts of government."
Sen. Richard Burr (R) already said the "unmasking" controversy was a non-controversy and Republicans have not really talked much about it since.
