“Temporarily “ sounds an awful lot like “suspending” your campaign.

Exactly. Everything Nunes said turned out to be true. Forget about Nunes. I’m not even sure CONGRESS has any role in this anymore.

I think that’s the method to the madness

I swear to God, on every single topic we need one thread for the hand-wringer, defeatist rock-throwers and one for the analysts, strictly enforced.

The howls and cries...

there goes the investigation

No, Rep. Nunes is temporarily stepping aside and is being temporarily replaced by one of the most conservative Republicans in the House.

It was interesting to see last week that Midland Republican Congressman Mike Conaway was listed by the National Journal to be tied for fifth place among the most conservative members of the House during 2012.

Conaway is the representative of Texas District 11, which includes Midland. Conaway was in the fifth place tie with John Fleming (R-La.), Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Steve Scalise (R-La.) and Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas).

I was pretty upset when I read the headline, but good move to replace with Gowdy. Do not know much about the other two. Are they lawyers? Get Rice before the committee. Gowdy knows a lot about her lies. Benghazi, for one. Does anyone have a timeline for all of this? Starting with Benghazi.

I've finally figured out how to identify the people on this site who watch a lot of television and spend a lot of time on the internet.

They're the ones who sit at their computer and complain whenever they don't see a story wrapped up within the time slot for an evening sitcom or a cable news show.

You commented about this might not be a Congress issue. I agree. AG should be bringing charges against Rice and Company.

An “Ethics” committee investigation into supposedly unethical releasing of intelligence information to.... The President of the United States (the Chief Executive who is IN CHARGE of the Intelligence Services who serve at his direction, top down).... riiiiiight.

FReepers who think this is some “move” obviously do not get that the Rice reveal and the subsequent involvement in the “unmasking” ask and get process of Brennan and Clapper,is a bombshell in the “flipped” last minute response of obamaumao from spying on the Trump campaign to.. “it’s the Russians meme”— all because it was supposed to be hitlery and her apparat taking over and finishing the totalitarian takeover of the US, controlling all levers of power. The same Russian “meme” that has been inflated by the hitleryites and the Uniparty never-trumpers from “meddling in the politics of the last election” and directly hacking the DNC (who would not allow the FBI to check it’s servers— thereby giving the LIE that it was the “Russians”). Coupled with the Vault 7 wikileaks info that the “see-yah-eye-—ah so what” used proxy russian fake tags to internal hacking... and voila! You get the exposure of the obamaumao attack, engineered by the 5== ValJar, Rice, Clapper,Brennan and.....McCabe.

The dems are desperate to try some horsecrap like an “ethics charge”.. that is all that it is. Nunes remains the Chairman.

Point: when the facts of the intelligence became known to Schiff (delivered at the same location as Nunes got it at the EEOB NSC officc SCIF)— Schiff.... had NOTHING, and could say NOTHING. He got “pissy” that this wasn’t shared with the rest of the committee (so they could leak it, and so the dems could have time to come up with a strategy to respond, while already having lost). When you have NOTHING substantial factually to argue against the proven FACT of obamaumao spying on the Trump campaign and MANY other American civilians-— under the fiction, created and directed by the Clapper/Brennan apparat to give the illusion this was under a FISA warrant (the logs of which are known to Mr. Trump and the FSC inner team, score 10-0)but really a police state spy apparatus— then you argue PROCESS, you argue speciously about ETHICS to delay the rolling up of your loss.

In fact, what Nunes did was extremely ethical and legally correct to bring it to the attention of the President— who is security cleared for everything, and for whom the Intel committee is a congressional “check and balance” but also cleared— to a lesser extent. Here’s the “macguffin” in the story— the “source” of the intel was the ultimately cleared for EVERYTHING- ie the same as the President- unit of the Executive Branch(whose director left on March 4 (when all this stuff started coming down). It was the Secret Service. Dicey for anyone on the Intel committee to question the motives or veracity of the Secret Service (doing their job to protect the Executive, and his family).

Hopefully have kept this cogent enough for the hand wringers to stop sniveling. This is all the dems have, and to qualify that-—see how the media wing of the libs is spouting this to high heaven (or not— again showing what they don’t have. Sort of like the “earthquake” of Bannon “forced out of the NSC” when he, and Flynn- not out of the picture- “de-operationalized” the NSC back into an Advisory Board and not the illegal civilian spying organization obamaumao had made it. Pay attention to what Comey says and does and the fate of McCabe. Now comes the indictments.. from the Atty General—stay tuned.

AG should be bringing charges against Rice and Company.

And you're asking where the hell he is because he hasn't brought any charges within 48 hours?

Are you five years old? LOL.

It just nauseates me, the same cast of losers wailing the same girly fears on every thread.

I posited months ago it was IC tapping the headsets of the details covering the admin protectees (only thing that explained the persistent leaks), then DJT dismissed 6 intel members who were living in the WH.

If this pans out, I really WILL believe in prison sentences.

“Several leftwing activist groups have filed accusations against me [Nunes] with the Office of Congressional Ethics.

Whackjob moonbats. We all know it's BS.

The charges are entirely false and politically motivated,

Totally. Same as my first comment.

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.

The why. From the school of Susan Rice Lying who are scared turdless.
