That was the fig leaf. As Nunes stated, there little if any relation to interest in Russians
Please also note everybody that Rep. Nunes did NOT say the surveillance was legal, per the posted video of his statement. Fox News paraphrased, but inserted the word “legal” in reference to his mention of surveillance. Sorry, Fox, very bad journalism. Nunes himself said that further investigation was needed to determine whether it was legal.
"They constantly spy on the Russians. Anyone talking to them will be monitored too."
