Nunes said something the other day about 5 eyes...
What he was saying is that they now knew the info on Pappadopolis did not come from any of the 5 eyes. Previously the FBI was saying they were tipped off by the Australian”eyes”. But we now know none of the 5 Intel agencies gave that info to the FBI. It is surmised that Hillary’s State Dept passed the info to the FBI which started the whole Russia Collusion investigation and FISA wiretapping.
Thanks for the specifics.
And wasn’t the Australian involved someone who facilitated a donation to the Clinton Foundation? Set up?
Greeneyes said to Cbolt:
“Nunes said something the other day about 5 eyes. They were waiting to make sure that 5 eyes wasn’t involved before going forward with the next step, and they now had it and 5 eyes was not involved.
Wish I could remember all of it.”

Here are some links confirming what greeneyes and weston were referring to wrt Nunes/Five Eyes:
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/04/22/sunday-talks-explosive-interview-with-devin-nunes/
From the above story from Conservative Treehouse, which is worth reading in its entirety and supports the Michael Kennedy tweet which Cboldt reported:
“ …The questions, many of which are rhetorical against the backdrop of political motives, become: if the EC is not based on official intelligence from U.S. intelligence apparatus or any of the ‘five-eyes’ partners, then what is the origin, source and purpose therein, of the unofficial raw intelligence? Who created it? And why?…”
“ … Brennan is describing the creation of the Clinton-Steele dossier and how it was used to generate a fraudulent October 21st, 2016 FISA Title-1 Surveillance Warrant against U.S. Person Carter Page. In hindsight, and against the known facts from research, we can clearly identify the need for the FISA warrant. The FBI and larger team of co-conspirators needed to have a retroactive legal basis for the political surveillance that was happening long before the warrant was issued.
That unlawful foundational FBI surveillance, which happened prior to October 2016, included the use of unauthorized FISA-702 queries of the NSA and FBI database for political opposition research by contractors. Again, much like the unofficial origin of the raw intelligence that began the July 2016 counterintelligence op, the FISA(702) abuse was simply more ‘unofficial’ use of the intelligence apparatus….”
The Fox Biz link, at the end of its article reporting the facts, cites the response by Adam Schiff re the Nunes statement:
…”Adam Schiff, a California Democrat and ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, responded to Nunes’ comments on Sunday, calling the information regarding Papadopoulos which led to the initiation of the investigation “well-founded.”
“The majority seems to believe that if it can discredit the initiation of the investigation by attacking the FBI, Justice Department and State Department, it can get the public to ignore the growing body of evidence of illicit contacts between the Trump campaign and the Russians. This approach is as disingenuous as it is destructive to our institutions,” Schiff said in a statement to Fox News.”
