Devin Nunes May Be The Next To Go Down Thanks To Mike Flynn


Mike Flynn told special counsel Robert Mueller everything, which includes the role of Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) in the Russia scandal

The Valley Voice, a community newspaper in Nunes’s district wrote in November 2017:

As reported by the Valley Voice in May, on January 18, Nunes attended a breakfast meeting with Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu at the invitation of disgraced former Trump National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, who was also present. Former White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus may also have attended.

Nunes and Flynn were members of the Trump administration’s transition team at the time the meeting took place. Two days after the meeting, Flynn accepted his position as national security adviser to the President. By February 13, he had been fired for failing to disclose his paid work as a Turkish lobbyist.

The meeting took place in a Trump-owned hotel.


Devin Nunes Was The Point Man For The House GOP Russia Cover-Up

Rep. Nunes used his position as the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee to obstruct, derail, and eventually shut down the committee’s Russia investigation. Nunes worked against the investigation that he was supposed to have recused himself from at every turn. Nunes was Trump’s man on the inside in the House. He floated bogus conspiracy theories, abused his powers, and generally made it impossible for the House to investigate the Russia scandal.

His behavior was originally thought to have been an effort to save Trump, but with Mike Flynn singing to Mueller, it is possible that Nunes was also trying to save himself. Nunes admitted on secret audio that the Trump campaign may have committed crimes.

Mike Flynn was a member of the Trump transition team, so were Devin Nunes, and Vice President Mike Pence.

If the transition team is as dirty as the campaign was, Devin Nunes could have a big Robert Mueller problem and might be the next figure in Trump’s orbit to go down.

absolutely belongs in prison.

I wonder when all is said and done, if we will find out what kind of kompromat was held over all these nasty traitors' heads or how much they were paid off to protect Trump and skirt our laws. Nunes in particular has always seemed a bit sweaty in his crimes. And by that, I mean desperate and way too obvious.

about Russian interference in the election while taking all of the dirty NRA money (Russian) to the Republican Senatoral CC.

Don’t forget that the RNC was hacked by Russians who probably blackmailed a bunch of Republicans. This shite could reach most of the Republican Party!!!

The way Nunes acted during the whole tiptoeing to the White House in the dead of night shenanigans, I wondered if something in those stolen emails points a finger at him for something very nefarious. He's a stooge.

C 10 and CA21, also in the Central Valley, flipped from Red to Blue this time, so I think it's definitely possible, especially with a Republican nominee who lacks the benefit of incumbency.

Nunes* the traitor has been part-and-parcel of the tRump*/Russia election effort right from the beginning.

involvement we are going to be shocked at the depth of their penetration of the entire GOP apparatus. Traitor Nunes had a highly visible role, but there are many more who took the rubles and kept their heads down.They all have to be disgraced and held accountable.

Since the Nunes mole plan worked, Trump appointed Whitaker to repeat that success in the AG's office. Derail, obstruct, report to Trump, pass on documents, release bits of select documents....

Getting Nunes would be sweet. We're all certain he's in on the Russian crimes, right? I am.
