Devin Nunes Vows To Never Reveal Source Of Surveillance Claims

Source: Huffington Post

Nunes is supposed to lead a credible investigation into Trump administration contacts with Russia.
By Michael McLaughlin



Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) said Tuesday that he’ll never reveal the source behind his claim that members of Donald Trump’s team had indirectly come under surveillance by U.S. intelligence agencies.

“We will never reveal sources and methods,” Nunes, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said to ABC News’ Mary Bruce on Tuesday.

Even other members of the committee, which is investigating Russian interference in the presidential campaign, will not learn how Nunes obtained information he said indicated that key figures close to Trump were monitored by U.S. intelligence, Nunes said.

Other members of the intelligence committee have not yet seen the materials Nunes cited, and it’s unclear when they’ll be made available to other lawmakers. “My guess is that it’s going to be a slow process,” Nunes said to ABC News.

Only Nunes is fit to receive the revealed truth, and no one else dare seek it.

Congress? This could be why Ryan is shielding him to prevent him from being held in contempt or from revealing that he is lying through his teeth.

We already know that surveillance took place. That's what a warrant is for! It's established fact that connections between Russia and Trumpy were being investigated. Nunes is really saying nothing.
