EXCLUSIVE: Republican Rep. Devin Nunes on Friday threatened to escalate his concerns about Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson’s handling of the Ukraine whistleblower complaint to the Justice Department unless Atkinson complies with congressional requests for information and documents.

In a letter obtained by Fox News Friday, Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, issued the stark warning to Atkinson, giving him a Feb. 14 deadline to comply with past congressional requests.

Adam Schiff..."As Chairman of the Intel Committee, what the hell did Schiff know, when did he know it and what the hell did he do about it?"

Adam schiff did his skullduggery best along with Schumer and Pelosi to damage President Trump. They have lied about the whistle-blower from day one!

When the left is screaming about POTUS you know they are scared and rightly so....the trio, Schiff, Schumer and Pelosi have trashed this government beyond imagination and they are at it again using the coronavirus as another cudgel in their sick hands to hurt this POTUS. They are instead hurting their country with their hate and lust for power. Vote them out of office in the 2020 election.

Was this article written before Atkinson was fired last night?

Feb 7 article. A congressman threatening to refer anything to the DOJ means very little, unfortunately.

I hope this doesn’t escalate so far that angry letters are written

Correct. Tom Cotton also sent a stern letter to Atkinson and never followed up. This was after Atkinson had lied to his face in a Senate committee hearing. Unsurprisingly, I see nothing in support of POTUS firing Atkinson on Cotton’s twitter time line. Plenty of flavor of the week “China virus” gaslighting from the useless Senator from Arkansas, though.

Prehistoric and useless. Nunes is a great guy but going to DOJ for anything is an exercise in futility.

A congressman is powerless against an executive branch official, and that’s the way it should be. We don’t really want Schiff to be able to get Bill Barr fired. But bringing attention to that official is a good thing, and makes it clear that it’s not just Trump who thinks the man’s conduct is politically-motivated.

Occasionally (not always) the camera captures EVIL...the psychopath’s coldness...the no compassion face. When that slips by go to the WORDS (lies or antagonisms..”bitter clingers”...now that face didn’t slip by you I hope). When both slip by go to the DEEDS. Sometimes they all slip by and YOU’RE raped or dead. The face is sometimes more revealing than other times...Manson, Khomeini, etc., etc.

Barack & Michelle, Hillary & Bill, Soros, Cuomo, Strzok, Brennan, Pelosi, Jarrett, Feinstein, Omar, Haley Stevens, Schumer, Yates, Ted Bundy, (an old acquaintance Rick, a current acquaintance Ron), Stalin, Hitler, Greta, etc., etc.

The most EVIL administration in the history of this great republic BY FAR.

Barack & Michelle Obama, Biden, Clinton, Holder, Lerner, Lynch, Brennan, Comey, Strzok, Paige, Jarrett, Yates, etc., etc. downstream including Jon Gruber, Zeke Emanuel, John Holdren, etc., etc.

ALL said ARROGANTLY...(Without a peep from “representation”)

” WE are 5 days away from fundamentally TRANSFORMING the United States of America”, “bitter clingers”, “you didn’t build that”, “CHARTER OF NEGATIVE LIBERTIES”, “deplorables” “we came, we saw, he died,” “if the prosecutor’s not fired, your not getting the billion dollars”, “she’ll cut off your head and you won’t even know you are bleeding” etc., etc., etc., etc.

WE THE PEOPLE are still reeling from the effects of these CRIMINALS. OUR children are, too. Witness current events.

https://usdebtclock.org Examine the debt before and after that administration.

NONE ARE BEHIND BARS. No justice, no republic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcsvE1zv1ek

ZERO...adios republic. Nobody can recover from such CRIMINALITY with a PROPAGANDA MACHINE unparalleled in human history.

Not to mention the...Declaration of MORE Debt Slvavery that proud CONgre$$ was too afraid to affix their signatures to.

Wake me when someone...anyone gets indicted. For decades three has been a (at least) two-tiered justice system in America. The criminals are never held to account for their many (and continuing) crimes.
