BLS 313 Posted March 22, 2017 It's almost like Donald J. Trump has a time machine. https://secure.politico.com/story/2017/03/devin-nunes-donald-trump-surveillance-obama-236366 Members of the Donald Trump transition team, possibly including Trump himself, were under U.S. government surveillance following November’s presidential election, House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) told reporters Wednesday. Nunes said the monitoring appeared to be done legally as a result of what's called "incidental collection," but said he was concerned because it was not related to the FBI’s investigation into Russia’s meddling in the election and was widely disseminated across the intelligence community. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted March 22, 2017 Except it was not Trump and it was not during the election (it was after). I would not be surprised if Nunes has been taking lessons from Donald himself in throwing stuff against the wall to see what sticks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted March 22, 2017 So Nunes briefed the very person he's investigating? And now he's giving press conferences releasing information contained within said investigation? Uhhhhhhhhhh That's what you're taking from this? If it was 'incidental' and had no intel value why was it distributed? And since it was not related to the the supposed FBI investigation why not tell the President? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And since it was not related to the the supposed FBI investigation why not tell the President? The other members of the House Intel Committee are BLASTING him for doing this. It removes any appearance of impartiality from Nunes. He didn't share any of the information he released to the press prior with the committee. He was a member of the Trump transition team. Anything this guy says moving forward with regards to any investigation is now going to be viewed with an immense amount of skepticism. Yeah...that's what I'm taking away from this. It's the only thing to take away from this. Rest assured, this is going to be a MAJOR issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has a history of using arms of the Government against its own citizens, and it comes as no surprise that he spied on Trump. He may not have ordered it, but his loosening of the dissemination of classified material in the last days of his presidency is the smoking gun that he knew about it and approved. I'm sure he has given himself plausible deniability, but anyone with common sense can put it together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NewbieJr 540 Posted March 22, 2017 Schiff is destroying Nunez right now on the radio. He said he cannot chair a committee if he's going to want to be a surrogate to Donald Trump. It has to be one or the other. There is no way that those two will ever be able to work together on this community now. And ship is challenging Nunez to produce the documents he's talking about. He thinks he's lying and was pressured by Trump to do something to cast doubt over Comey's findings, which made Trump look so bad. This is getting good.
