Anyone else know anything about this?
From the Hugh Hewitt Show tonight
Nunez: No, I absolutely do not, especially after this wiretapping incident, essentially, of the House of Representative. I dont think people are focusing on the right thing when they talk about going after the AP reporters. The big problem that I see is that they actually tapped right where Im sitting right now, the Cloak Room.
This is the only place I can find this other than all the right wing websites it has spread like a vires to. It's not on any News websites. WTF is Nunes talking about? They didn't even "wiretap" the AP. This sounds completely fabricated to me and Nunes needs to be called out on this kind of BS.
I won't link to the Hugh Hewitt show but you can find this rather easily if you want to.
On Edit: I think Nunes is just trying to be clever and abstract enough to make it sound like the Cloak Room was tapped but not really saying it. Notice the word "essentially". I think he is suggesting anyone who called the AP from the Cloak Room was in his idiot words "tapped". Under this logic probably every major country the AP talked to was tapped too. Regardless, a lot of right wing sites don't know he is being abstract and are going wild with this. Just the kind of crap the right wing constantly pulls.

(17,175 posts)He doesn't realize that the NSA has released billions of trained mosquitos that inject a micro-transmitter when they bite and those micro-transmitters not only relay our every thought through the socialist electrical grid, but they also allow The Evil President and his Muslin Brotherhood to track our every move to a resolution of +/- 0.1 meter! Not to mention the millions of so-called "cicadas" that are now homing on on Good Americans, each "cicada" with a built-in camera and a tiny charge of C-12 mind-altering implosive which will render the target intellectually incapable of anything other than running for Congress. It's true!
And as soon as the NSA learns how to interpret flat-lined brain waves, folks like Nunes and Issa and Cruz and Gohmert and all-too-many-others are going to be in big trouble, you betcha!
