President Trump has had enough of the stonewalling and took matters into his own hands Monday.

BEST ELECTION EVER
“Look at the garbage pile omnibus bill. Look at the Senate intel committee now. It is defacto being run by the Democrat minority. How pathetic is that?”
It’s very pathetic ... but Trump passed that omnibus nonsense to stave off a government shutdown knowing all of what we’ve seen the past 48 hours was going to unfold. It also *seems* (no facts to back this up) that a lot of the GOP Trump bashing is subsiding somewhat ... you still have your idiots like McCain running their mouths, but scum like Flake and his ilk haven’t been exactly out there trashing Trump 24/7 ... I think something is going on behind the scenes (could be wrong of course ... I’m speculating).
Also, the Senate Intel Committee *must* play their cards such that they look like they are under Dem control. One misstep and the Dems have a narrative for when some of their Gods are indicted. Do what the Dems say, and they have NOBODY to blame but themselves.
I will tell you this, if I’m wrong and business as usual persists after this campaign spies/wiretap story plays out, then we are completely screwed :-) ... however, I’m holding out hope that there is some semblance of strategy going on here while the swamp is being drained. They’re up against a pack of rabid lawyers with a fawning media propping them up ... every single i must be dotted and t must be crossed if you’re going to bring them down legally.
Distractions like spending bills have to be cast aside if this is going to unfold the way it should unfold (the Dems knew this and upped the ante on spending ... the GOPe also doesn’t really like passing up pork ... but Trump was obviously disgusted with the bill despite signing it ... I can give him a pass on that, but I am outright losing my patience with the lack of spending cuts being proposed).
So the logical question is what worm invited him there?

Would bet you’re right!
Indeed.
I think by now, Nunes knows EXACTLY what he is looking for. He doesn't have to read through hundreds of pages, I'll bet he has a few questions in his mind, and has a good idea where to find the answers. He is a pretty sharp guy, and he is playing the game with an edge we are not used to on our side.
Did you hear the interview with Nunes (Fox?) when they asked him about the invitation from the DOJ to go over on Friday night? (The one they rejected?)
Here is the way Dan Bongino laid it out, and I agree 100%...
The New York Times is running cover for the Dems, and they all realize that when the IG report comes out, the "source" (Stefan Halper) is going to be named, and the house of cards is going to be down flat on the ground for their "Russian Collusion" narrative. (It has been dead for everyone but the most rabid Trump haters and low information citizens)
This is entering the next phase that is going to be very damaging for the Left. Heads ARE going to roll. So the Dems and the NYT want to get out front of this and set the narrative (just like we LET them for Benghazi) because that DID work well for them. They opened a box, and we fell right into it. When the real truth came out, it was pooh-poohed by the Leftist Media, and they said "Ahh, that's old news. Everyone already knows all about it. And it died a general death across the country as an issue, even though we kept it alive.
So...they want to set the table and soften the blow when the real information comes out in the IG report so they leak the information about Halper, and did everything they could without naming Halper. They said the equivalent of "We can't tell you his name, but his father-in-law was Ray Cline who worked in the CIA during the Cuban Missile Crisis, he was born on June 4, 1944, but...to protect him, we cannot tell you his name."
Now the name is out. (Many of us knew this back in March thanks to Dan Bongino who collated articles from places like the Daily Caller with Chuck Ross, etc so it was easier to communicate why it was him)
To do this, they chose to do it on a Data Dump Friday (usually the day bad news is released for the least impact) so they would get a twofer.
They would invite Nunes and Gowdy over Friday night. Come on over...we can look at some stuff, maybe have a few beers...and Nunes asked if they would get the documents...when they said NO, Nunes said "Okay...See ya."
See...the DOJ wanted to get the name of the "source" out on Friday, and they hoped that if Nunes and Gowdy came over, they could blame the leak on them and damage their credibility. They would get a TWOFER. Get the identity of the person out there, and jab a thumb in Nunes's eye.
Nunes saw right through it an had the STONES to go on television and SAY that was what he expected them to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Things are different. We have a President who won't roll over, and we have a Chair of the House Intelligence Committee who is like no other Congressman we have seen in a while...he isn't going to let go, and he isn't backing down. He simply is not playing the game they have always expected conservatives to play...turn around in supplication and invite them to tape a "Kick Me" sign on their backs.
This is quite different.
Who are you?
I stand by what I said but can understand why you said it.
I believe you only need a SCIF for TS/SCI documents. You don't need a SCIF for SECRET data. I don't think we know the level of classification for these documents and we don't know if these documents have been over classified. We do know that the FBI and the DOJ have already been caught redacting incriminating parts of documents that should not have been redacted.
So I I think by now, Nunes knows EXACTLY what he is looking for.
I agree. I think Nunes will look at the unreacted stuff along with Coats at DNI and they will determine which documents they want Trump to declassify. And Trump will agree to declassify those documents.
Send the viagra to the 'special someone' instead ....
Review? Snatch, grab, run, and flip Rosenstein the bird.
cannot leave the premises....
They also count the silverware in any place in Washington where Democrats are allowed to visit. Have to be careful.

“...Send the viagra to the ‘special someone’ instead .... “
Yeah. His name is “BIG BUBBA”, he’s the new cellmate, and, oh, he happens to be a gay top. Enjoy!!!
Thank you,Bob!
I think you know more about this than I do, I have never had a security clearance...:)
What I do know is that when we have been able to get portions un-redacted, the pieces they said couldn’t be un-redacted for national security issues turned out to be things they didn’t want unredacted simply because they were unflattering and embarrassing to them.
I don’t trust them now, but that’s okay. What is that saying “You can run, but you’ll just die (figuratively speaking) tired...”
Your whole post is jackass pomposity at its worst. Loser.
