First of all, they are not sincere in finding out what happened with the Russians in the last election. Devin Nunes has not conducted the Committee in good faith. He and the Republicans have reportedly leaked the emails of Senator Mark Warner of Virginia. The House Intel Committee serves no positive or useful purpose in the investigation by Robert Mueller. It would be better if they were not involved at all. It is nothing but a partisan prop for Donald Trump. It is time to shut it down and the Democrats should call for it to be shut down. They could let the Senate Intel Committee and the Special Counsel do their job without their interference.

(26,060 posts)They should say it's nothing but a waste of time and just let Mueller do his thing.
I've been saying this all along.

(8,998 posts)That he is still there tells us how the GOP wants to keep things as they are. No real investigation.

When the Democrats take back the House, Adam Schiff will HEAD this Committee and let the subpoenas fly and the heads roll.
I hope beyond hope that Nunes will get his traitorous ass kicked to the curb this November!

(82,849 posts)Ryan's mouthpiece has said that nobody can blame Ryan because he's not chairman of the House Select Committee. But Nunes occupies that position solely at Paul Ryan's sufferance. If Ryan thought Nunes' antics constituted a risk to national security or the integrity of the ongoing investigation, Nunes would be gone yesterday. But he's not. Ryan obviously approves of what Nunes is doing.

(25,487 posts)1. After Dems take House in November, Schiff becomes the chairman. It is easier to pick up an open investigation than to start a new one.
2. Nunes continues to expose himself to Mueller. Don't let him off the hook. He is caught in a honey pot of his own making and every move he makes gets him stickier.
