Nunes Nonsense

Upon reading Nunes' rambling presser comments,
Key Republican Lawmaker Says Intelligence Was Collected on Members of Trump Transition - TIME

I am not sure if he is intentionally confusing/conflating the information or if he really just does not completely understand the nature of the information he has.

Most of the information was collected “incidentally” during the transition, from November through January, Rep. Devin Nunes said at a press conference Wednesday. Nunes emphasized that he believes it was all obtained legally, and noted that none of the information was related to Russia.

So, Domestic Surveillance transcripts of
Discussions ABOUT the actions/members of Trump's Team????

The details about the people associated with the Administration had “little or no apparent foreign intelligence value” Nunes said, but were widely disseminated in intelligence reporting.

Surveillance Targets were US citizens -- who were discussing policies/intentions related to 45 -- while under surveillance.....??

“It was a lot of information on the President-elect and the transition team and what they were doing,” Nunes said.
Sources came to him legally with this information, he said.

it sounds like he freaked because he realized that IC knows what the 45 Administration is up to & who all the key players are ...
(and possibly he realized that it was a far bigger cast of co-conspirators than he knew about)

Hard to know if he is aware of the specific "investigation" topic/subject for which this surveillance was collected ....
because he is presenting it as if the only purpose for its collection was "political".

When, it seems more likely that it was collected during the course of a criminal investigation unrelated to politics...
and the people being investigated happened to be discussing their knowledge of / involvement with the transition team.

If it were collected under a FISA warrant there would be no "legal" avenue for its disclosure outside of the IC.... without DoJ involvement....
But if just part of a criminal investigation... the rules for disclosure are very different and Include circumstances for disclosure ...

Who knows...
Just one possible explanation for Nunes' incredibly unethical & potentially illegal shenanigans ....
