Nunes stated that the NYT expose’timing was intended to entrap him and Gowdy. Both at the last minute canceled a meeting with the DOJ because the DOJ informed them that they would not provide documents as promised, but would brief them. Had they attended Friday’s meeting, the blame for outing Halperin would have been put squarely on them which would have at a minimum sidelined their investigation. He is pissed!
They were being set up by Rosenstein and/or Wray. How pathetic of Sleepy Sessions to allow this on his watch. Just pathetic beyond words.
Just infuriating.
Although he didn’t say so in this interview, I expect Nunes to move on a contempt resolution this week.
