Wonder if this is happening according to plan after Bannon or anything to do with that?

Let’s hope this has been handed to Justice and Jeff Sessions, anything else and we really have a gang that can’t shoot straight, good gosh we are looking like a gaggle of geldings....

Sessions already recused himself from any investigations into the "Trump/Russia" thing. You could say that Nunes has "pulled a Jeff Sessions".

IMO Trey-G was as complicit in the Fraud’s crimes against America as the rest of the House was for six years.

If it were Trump doing this I might be inclined to agree with you, but it’s a congressional Repuke so I’m inclined to see this as another cave-in on Nunes’s part.

We need to face reality.

*************

The Republicans will disappoint us, as they always do. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory is the only thing they do consistently well.

Is anyone else reporting this?

According to Intel Committee website, Conaway (TX) replacing temporarily, assisted by Gowdy.

A pain in the butt, but I think a rope a dope by the GOP.

Nunes steps aside so that when Trump sidelines McCabe and Comey when accusations officially get leveled at them, the bitching from the left can be dismissed with a wave of the hand.

(e.g. Spicer responds in the press briefing to whiny MSM, “Sessions and Nunes recused themselves when accused with baseless charges. It’s only appropriate for Comey and McCabe to be handled similarly when charges that appear on their face to be much more serious have been brought. Next question.”)

Now we KNOW that the Obama Administration illegally spied on Trump and the powers that be are trying to hide that fact.

LEFTIES/Dem have filed SEVERAL ethics complaints against Nunes. Looks like they've been able to put him "under investigation" to take him out of the picture and shut him up.

The GOP is every bit as guilty as the DNC in the destructionism that’s plaguing our country.

Worse since they were supposed to be on our side.
