The chair of the House Intelligence Committee accused the FBI and Department of Justice of stonewalling a sprawling investigation into claims the Trump campaign colluded with Russia with the hope of running out the clock until the November elections, when they anticipate Democrats will regain control of the House and dissolve an ongoing probe that has uncovered evidence U.S. officials sought to cripple Trump's campaign. Rep. Devin Nunes (R., Calif.), in a wide-ranging audio interview with his House colleague Rep. Sean Duffy (R., Wis.), accused top officials at the FBI and DOJ of "putting all their chips on the Republicans losing the House" so that their Democratic allies can "shut down" the longstanding Intelligence Committee probe, which has unearthed information disputing claims of collusion in recent months.

Gee....no kidding.
the fact that all agencies have not been dissolved and polygraphed is a sure sign we have lost the country, Trump could do it today, it is too political it is this it is that, it is our dying gasp of a country
The jerks were caught off guard with Trump’s election because they were sure Hillary the witch would win. Ed Randall didn’t stuff enough boxes... That’s got to be it - she was so sure of the Rust Belt - she acted like she didn’t need to demean herself by wading into flyover...
But now? The corrupt deep state is ready and they’ll do whatever it takes.

Too obvious for even Captain Obvious to deal with.
Maybe he can explain it to Lyin Ryan.
“The left in general, and the Democrat Party in particular, have been working patiently for decades to replace the United States with the United Nations.”
And the GOP is just as happy to destroy our nations sovereignty with open borders, lopsided trade policies for their banker buddies, massive unbelievable debt, alliances with Al Qeida, the EU, kowtowing to China and bitterly opposing anything good for middle class Americans.
And with the GOP in charge of the Senate, the House, the Supreme court, and the White House. I blame the GOP 100%.
And much of the GOP really don’t want to be the power in majority. They just talked that excuse to death. Their actions prove it. They would rather give up the majority just to hobble Trump.
Why would the Dems care about shutting down a toothless House probe that will never actually do anything about whatever they might uncover?
I agree, but there’s not enough people - that is, what the press considers “people,” which is not us - supporting him and I think he was intimidated.
I don’t think Trump capitulated to them today, but he should have told them to wait and tomorrow, after he had had time to think about it, he could have called a press conference where he might have been firmer. But they’ve already distorted what he said because it sounded weak.
“There’s an old saying, however, that you can drag a dying horse around a race track, but you can’t make him win the triple crown (ok, I just made that up).”
Reminds me of the old saying: “You can toss a comatose presidential candidate into the back of an unmarked ambulance, but you can’t make her win the election.”
This is why I often return to the video of Trump coming down the steps to give his acceptance speech election night. I have never had tears stream down my face as it did that night over any election. But I knew all that this man had just stopped!....and that he was to be the man of the hour to bring back our real country.....It still gets me all choked up

Nor does Pres Trump.
He can “order” anything he wants, but it will not be complied with. (ie, the release of documents to Congress)
As we have seen today, he cannot even conduct foreign policy as he sees fit.
He has ZERO support in government.
They will not let him be President, they do not give a rats ass about us, as a matter of fact, they want us dead or in jail.
So what are WE going to do about it?
When that didn't happen, in December of 2016. Obama ordered a report on the Russian Interference. It was to be delivered BEFORE he left office. And I believe it was only a couple days before he left.
Why didn't Obama order it the day after the election? Needed a little further planning maybe? Sorta like an insurance policy.
Was this report the insurance policy??
But today was a good test of support in Congress...and the GOP failed again.
He knows he has no backup, or power. This is why he endeavored to explain himself again. Doing what what asked of him.
Only it matters not, and he knows it.
He still is in the same boat as yesterday, unable to conduct foreign policy as he sees fit, and as every other President has been able to do.
This is unprecedented, and very, very, very, dangerous.
Nothing new and it is NOT going to work; especially if we get off our collective butts and help get out the vote.
Many saw that coming. OMGosh.
I totally agree. There are terrified that Trump is outing them while they are hiding behind the curtain.
Their media has successfully buried any news of the coup so far.
As evidenced by the fake outrage over Putin/Trump. They can still argue that Trump is in on the “meddling”.

Might as well fight the Commie’s with a smile on our faces...
