Should Nunes also be registered as a foreign agent?

Seeing as how he has been lobbying for his family's homeland of Portugal to get ALL of our intel agencies based there instead of the UK? Has he gotten any money from them?
Online articles saying that he felt once he became head of the committee he felt he would have more pull over where our intel resources were located despite all of the agencies saying that it would be cheaper and more practical to locate them all at the UK base.
Yet he keeps pushing for Portugal. The NYT had an article about the local Portuguese upset about losing income when the base workers get pulled out, saying that the US basically OWES it to them since Portugal is a US ally. Um...we don't owe you shit...it's about OUR intel agencies being able to effectively do their jobs and it has been decided that that is done best in the UK.

Articles have said that Nunes is idolized in Portugal and they are hoping he can get it done for them. Drumf's first post election conversation with the Portuguese president was all about keeping our base there open and putting our all our intel there.

How does this all play into the current/past relationship between drumf and Nunes? Is Nunes hoping drumf will agree to relocate all our intel there?

And to top it off..Portugal is basically threatening the US that if they pull out then Portugal will become BFF's with China who may take over the base.

1. Since he was on transition teama target of investigation,

he sure as hell shouldn't be given intel on the investigation. Not just step down from chair, but recuse himself from entire committee.

Your article suggests there should be a check into whether or not he got paid f/ his lobbying. If so, where's the form where he's permitted to do so?

2. I don't know....

But given that he is lobbying for it so badly someone needs to see if he has taken any money....given that all of the various intel agencies and Pentagon have shown him it is financially and intel-wise better for the UK base to be used and not Portugal he clearly is looking out more for Portugal people/interests than the US's.
He wants to do that then let him move THERE and run for a Portuguese government job.

4. If Portugal doesn't want him, Tillenger can prob get him job
