Another spineless republican....another wasted day by republicans. The entire party needs to be sent to the dustbin of history.
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.
Linguini strikes again!
Another one bites the DUST!!!!!Freaking bastard Cowards all the Republican party! I am sick to my stomach that the liberal asses always get their man! That’s it!!!!! I am so over the Republican Party they can go straight to hell!!! I am finished!! this country is hanging by a thread...freakin evil establishment is winning!! OUR COUNTRY IS SO F WITH THESE BASTARDS!!! I am so through!!! that’s it!!! I clean my hands I throw in the towel they can all go to freaking hell all of them! I hope DC burns to the ground! Cowards cowards that’s what we elected cowards!
Did all that unlawful surveillance just pay off again...?
Once again the minority dictates to the majority and are running the show. Every time the GOP let the dems get away with this crap, it makes the next time even worse.
Bannon yesterday, Nunes today. Dems must be high-fiving!
More news to piss me off.
Statement:
Washington, D.C. House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes today issued the following statement:
“Several leftwing activist groups have filed accusations against me with the Office of Congressional Ethics. The charges are entirely false and politically motivated, and are being leveled just as the American people are beginning to learn the truth about the improper unmasking of the identities of U.S. citizens and other abuses of power.
Despite the baselessness of the charges, I believe it is in the best interests of the House Intelligence Committee and the Congress for me to have Representative Mike Conaway, with assistance from Representatives Trey Gowdy and Tom Rooney, temporarily take charge of the Committee’s Russia investigation while the House Ethics Committee looks into this matter. I will continue to fulfill all my other responsibilities as Committee Chairman, and I am requesting to speak to the Ethics Committee at the earliest possible opportunity in order to expedite the dismissal of these false claims.”

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) will temporarily step aside from an investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, including interactions between Moscow and the Trump campaign.
The probe will be taken over by Reps. Michael Conaway (R-Texas), Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) and Tom Rooney (R-Fla.)
Waiting to be lectured about yesterday and today being brilliance that us common folks just can’t see.
This is insane.
Sounds like he is going to let Conaway handle the Russia investigation until he clears the ethics committee. While he waits to do that, he will still be the chairman looking into Susan Rice and her shenanagins plus anything else that comes to the committee. He is not stepping down, just dividing the work with the rest of the committee. Might be a smart move.
With the news of yesterday and today, the only thing that could make this a trifecta is Trump trying to hand us another crap sandwich in healthcare with NO repeal.
They don’t call us the stupid party for nothing!
I’m so glad I became an independent and am no longer a registered Republican (I voted for DJT of course).......talk about the dumbest Political Party around! How they have control of most branches of government is beyond me! No backbone nor a clue! Talk about pulling defeat out of the jaws of victory!
I’m totally fed up. Weaklings.
why are the caving to the harassment of traitors like democrats? How can the American people win with such weak leaders?
Some Ds have been saying the Russia investigation and the surveillance/unmasking investigation are unrelated - they should focus on Russia and worry about Rice & friends later.
Does this give him more time to spend on the Rice investigation now? I’m sure the R’s answer is NO but I’d love to see him say that’s what he’s doing just to watch the Ds freak out.
Cowards. Piss on the GOP. I hope they lose the house and senate in 2018. Buncha rotten traitorous loser cowards.
Crapped out.
