Devin Nunes Tears into Adam Schiff and His 'Sick Fantasies' at Intel Committee Hearing
Townhall.com ^ | 10/2/2020 | courtney o'brien

"Welcome to another hearing of the Trump impeachment committee," Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) quipped during his opening statement at a House Intelligence Committee hearing on Friday.

Adam Schiff (D-CA) convened Friday's meeting to question Joseph B. Maher, the Senior Official Performing the Duties of the Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis. According to the chairman, Maher has been "preventing a lawful Intelligence Community whistleblower—the former head of an Intelligence Community element—from providing classified testimony to the Committee by delaying security clearances for his attorneys." That whistleblower leveled several allegations against the agency, including that they "suppressed intelligence reports about Russia’s election interference and efforts to modify intelligence assessments to match Trump’s rhetoric on white supremacy, Antifa, and terrorism threats at the border." He alleged that the DHS told him to stop reporting on the Russian threat to the U.S. election because it "made President Trump look bad." The White House and the DHS denied all allegations.

Nunes noted that the Democrats called the whistleblower in question a liar just a few weeks before he filed this complaint. But now, they take him as their word as their "star witness."

The ranking member accused his Democratic colleagues of dragging the panel through another investigation hoping that they'll find the "holy grail of scandals that finally gets rid of Trump without beating him in the election." They are, Nunes said, "sick fantasies."

"There's no reason for this hearing to be held in public except to stir up media interest in the Democrats' latest publicity stunt, their attack on the leadership of the Department of Homeland Security," Nunes said.

“”Bodies in the streets. Likely the only way we change the direction of this country.””

Or we could vote every democrat out next month. GOP need to retake the house, keep the senate and re-elect Pres Trump

Wrong. Momentum. The pushback grows and every little bit helps. Think snowball to an avalanche.

Amazing, no whistleblowers coming forward to expose Schiff, Nadler, others who have been targeting the President and his people.

This is incredible speech. Love the part of DEMS by passing the IG first as protocol and the part the Dems called the whistle blower weeks before and threatened criminal charges.

But yet this WB they are hoping is the holy grail to take down the President.

Mentioned Russia, FISA, Dems and Hilary paid for the dossier, edited emails, etc.
