Nunes pressed on Fux Noise about comparing impeachment inquiry to a 'coup'

Fox's Ed Henry grilled House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) Sunday on House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's (R-Calif.) characterization of the House impeachment inquiry as a "coup," according to Mediaite.

"Is this a calculated coup against President Trump, and if so, how do you back that up?" Henry asked Nunes, with Nunes responding that the inquiry was "the cheap knockoff version of the Russia hoax."

"It appears like some bureaucracy - some parts of the bureaucracy were really mad that they didn't like that President Trump had a special envoy to Ukraine. They didn't like that he was sending Rudy Giuliani to Ukraine to find out where the dirt was coming from that the Democrats were using to feed to the FBI," Nunes added.

Henry continued to press Nunes on how he justified the "coup" characterization, noting "impeachment is in the Constitution, so how is it a coup if Democrats are going through the procedures that were set up by the Framers?"

He's been in court lately suing a cow, and others for mocking him. Last week he was trying to get his 2018 Democratic opponent to delete his twitter account and publically apologize. And he was also demanding Facebook release personal information on activists who made fun of him. Wouldn't think he'd have time to even attend the committee meetings.
