It seems Devin Nunes is saying that they reached the same conclusion as the CIA. If Devin knew that a foreign power was attempting to install Trump into the WH, why didn't Devin attempt to inform the public of his findings, and what actions did Devin take to defend our country?

nope.

Hear about any special meetings made public?

They were on vacation, now get this over 245 days last year, fascist Ryan and republican boy's and girls were just looking out for good old plutocracy and protecting (who)? Not the citizens of this country, that's for sure
