Nunes Refuses To Share Intelligence Source With Other Committee Members
Zero Hedge ^ | 28 Mar, 2017 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 03/28/2017 8:32:14 PM PDT by MtnClimber

In the latest bizarre twist surrounding the Devin Nunes story involving "mysterious" sources at the White House, who disclosed to the republican chair of the House Intelligence Committee that the NSA had been surveilling Trump and/or members of his team, Nunes said on Tuesday he will not share - even with other members of his panel - the source that gave him the intelligence reports which indicated President Donald Trump and his associates may have been ensnared in incidental intelligence collection.

Asked by a Fox News reporter whether he would inform the other committee members about who gave him the reports he viewed on the White House grounds last week, Nunes said: "We will never reveal those sources and methods."

In other words either Nunes is concerned that the source might be in jeopardy should his ID be revealed to members of his own committee, or the source - as some have suggested - is the White House itself, or there is some even more troubling explanation why the House Intel Chief has taken it on himself to be the sole gatekeeper to the critical information.

In any case, on Monday Nunes told Bloomberg he would make his information available to other members of the committee by the end of the week, so we eagerly look forward to that.

Meanwhile, after numerous Democrats including Chuck Schumer and his colleague at the House Intel Committeee, Adam Schiff, had called on Nunes to recuse himself from the Russian investigation, the first Republican to join the Democrats, emerged when Rep. Walter Jones told The Hill that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes should "absolutely" recuse himself from his panel's investigation into Russia's meddling in last year’s election.

Nunes needs to continue standing tall. When the ‘RATS say “recuse”, he needs to reply, “Recuse this!”. Don’t be a Sessions.

Probably a good strategy. If the leaker is taken out then the data could be too. If Nunes was to disappear, the leaker could contact someone else considered trustworthy.

The actions of the democRATs shows they were probably in on the surveillance.

‘If you think you be able to cone to the conclusion that there were no nefarious connections between Trump and Russia, you need to recuse yourself.’ Adam Schiff

Probably just wishful thinking but what if the evidence he has is bigger than we think and he doesn’t want the democrats on the committee tipping off the subjects of the information.

Sounds like Mr. Schiff has already made up his mind, and therefore cannot be fair or objective. For this reason he must obviously recuse himself from any further involvement with the committee.

You wont see them. They came from the SKIF. Just like Hillary copying things from the skif and putting them on email. It is the same exact thing. Trust me he doesnt need to. Look at Trump Gowdy and Nunes demeanor extremely confident and in control, now compare that to schummer and schiff, who are panicking. Trump knows, and the democrats know that trump knows. Comey and rogers, and a ton of non clearanced people on both sides of the aisle know and they should not have. SOOOOOOOOOOOO there will be a political blood bath. Prepare for people jumping off roofs some will be pushed.

I think it is clear he trusts Trump, but no one on his committee. Would you trust McCain or Graham or others like him? The Rats would start scrubbing evidence and eliminating witnesses. I predict that 0bama goes down in this and that other BIG scandals like Fast and Furious get broken open.

The problem with revealing it will be that there will be a party, who hearing he information MIGHT be able to guess the mole.

Some of the posts go back an hour——if true I would assume someone else would have it by now.

Well, well, well, look who freedom caucus member Mark Sanford is hanging with ... I wonder why Rep. Jones is so concerned about what Chairman Nunes knows ...

Two House Republicans joined congressional Democrats Friday in signing a letter demanding the release of President Trump’s tax returns. North Carolina’s Walter Jones and South Carolina’s Mark Sanford were the only two members of the GOP to sign the letter, which asks the Senate Committee on Finance and the House Ways and Means Committee to demand the Treasury Department turn over Trump’s tax returns from the last decade. The letter says the returns should be made available to members of the two committees in a “closed” session, with the eventual goal of “making them available to the public.”

Be interesting to give some info to McCain and have all his devices monitored and see what he does with it. At least they’d find out who his handler is.
