It may be the smart thing to do to continue the investigation without the distraction that the democRats bombarded Nunes with. We know democRat’s MO, do anything under the sun possible to sidetrack any investigation of the facts. We shall see!

Quote from Nunes: “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,” Nunes, a California Republican”, said in a statement

This was a foolish move. Stop kowtowing to their bullying, the DNC-Media are just liars.

This illegal Obama spying on Trump was going on for at least 2 years at a furious pace, and what do they have to show for it? Nothing. Not a damn thing! The Russia collusion is an empty jar, a bottle of fake news, because if they had the goods they would have wasted Trump in the election. They ran with pussy-gate and even that fell down.

Just keeps saying NO to the DNC-media. Punch a bully in the nose. Hit back! Keep hitting. Attack Obama for adulterating intel reports on ISIS and Iran, attack Brennan for his admitted spying on the Senate which is treasonous and a direct assault on the Constitution. Attack the IRS and those abuses of Obama’s political opponents, attack the blatant lies of Benghazi, they lied to the parents of dead soldiers. Keep saying it, Obama was in fact a corrupt liar. Brennan should be in prison and the guy didn’t even lose his job.

Attack, that’s how Trump won it!

They accuse Trump of treasonous collusion with Putin, and they come up with these silly sit down meetings with a Russian diplomat or some side Russian business deal by some guy remotely connected with the Trump team, and then the DNC-Media grabs their pearls and yells “See!” It is all a lie, and Nunes should have just kept attacking and attacking. Now they are going to say that Nunes is a liar and had to step down. Which is giving DNC lies credence.

Who the heck is running this Republican Party.

Fight back.

The more the Left’s unhinged bullying is rewarded, the more of it we’ll get.

Thanks, Nunes, for teaching the left via a massively significant object lesson that their moronic, hysterical jerk-waddery pays off.

I actually lump this in with Trump’s crazy jumping in on the Assad thing (and other stuff) and am wondering if the days of “winning” are abruptly coming to an end, in a way that none of us saw coming.

I've been thinking along those lines ever since Trump bashed the Freedom Caucus and praised Ryan, Trump's inaction in getting rid of Comey, Rogers, and other Deep State embeds, and the rise of Ivanka/Kushner/demotion of Bannon.

I'm this close to jumping off the Trump Train. I didn't vote for Goldman Sachs and the GOPe.

So tired of these gutless bastards backing down. When was the last time a Democrat resigned, recused or just plain crawled back under their rock after been spuriously accused of evil-doing?

Why the hell did we give them:

- the House in 2012?
- the Senate in 2014?
- the WH in 2016?

Quit LYING to get elected.
Quit BACKING OUT ON PROMISES TO TAKE ACTION.
Quit BEING AFRAID OF YOUR OWN FREAKING SHADOWS

or the rest of us will...

QUIT PULLING THE (R) LEVER. Enough’s enough.

I honestly believe we’re in the middle of a silent coup being enacted by the left. They are using Alinsky tactics to the letter to overwhelm the people with fake news and overwhelm people in power with threats against them and their families. None of the spineless Republicrats in DC are willing to put their careers on the line.

Trump’s picture is still absent from the VA walls. I will not be surprised if Trump is removed from office within six months. At the very least he will be stripped of all power.

I had become convinced that our votes DO count. Now I realize it makes no difference if they count if the results are ignored.

Trump needs to declassify it. It’s the only way to hit back at the deep state. And Nunes should have nor resigned. Is there not one single man with balls in DC? All we have are cowards, and the un-american Intel community deep state. Nothing else.

So...I guess We The People arose mightily in November to grant Chuck Schumer’s every whim, and have Paul Ryan manage the capitulation.

John Kay was quite prescient on this one!

History will regard America and Freedom as the greatest-ever failed experiment.

Apologies to Michelson and Morley.

Yep, it isn’t looking good right now, I just pray it’s a passing phase.

Mike Conaway, from the TX 11th District, is a solid conservative from the Permian Basin oil patch. He’s an accountant, which is infinitely better than being a lawyer, and a graduate of Texas A&M when it used to be conservative. He may have more spine than most GOP House members have shown. Ryan, of course, was all in favor of Nunes caving, and, judging from his comments, may have even asked him to leave the investigation.
