On this week’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) said the Department of Justice was stalling turning over documents to Congress with the hopes that the Democrats win the majority in the House of Representatives and shut down the investigations.
Nunes said, “I’ve seen this game played many times before. There is a stall game going on at DOJ and FBI. They are trying to stall as much as they can, hoping and betting that Republicans would lose the House in the fall. If that happens, it essentially shutdowns everything. Rod Rosenstein wouldn’t be held for contempt. FBI will not be held accountable. All of the investigations will be shut down, everything will be buried, and you will be left with media narratives saying ‘Oh, what the public can’t read, what’s blackout is what’s really bad stuff against Carter Page and the Republicans and the Trump campaign.’ That’s why the sooner the president declassifies, the better. The American people need to understand how important it will be to get out and vote in the election.”
On the efforts to impeach Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, Nunes said, “What I can tell you is there was a move late last week to begin impeachment. I think there are grounds for impeachment and we should hold them accountable. Congress has given them way too much power.”

The Deep State cannot allow the investigations to continue. They will do anything to capture control of Congress. Ryan and McConnell are members of the Deep State and have allowed this situation to continue.
Yes, being enabled by Paul Ryan.
Clearly the POTUS has always had that authority, and has not exercised it. Yet. My guess is that he will do so when he thinks it will benefit him politically. And that that will be before the November election. I hope he times it right.
The GOP is in on the scam also.
There is a simple solution but nobody in the GOP leadership has the balls.
Congress controls the purse strings. Stop all payments to the FBI until they fork over ALL the documents as requested.
REALLY screw with them after they squeal about how f’ing patriotic they are... agree with them and then by “giving them a raise” but making ALL PENSIONS SEFL FUNDED. The federal government can match the first 5-10 percent but then it’s all up to the individual DOJ and FBI employees to pay for their sweetheart pensions.
That should be a nice little warning to the CIA and NSA that they’re next until they get their cr@p together. Play f’ing hard ball and watch the piggies squeal.
