(115,741 posts)Devin Nunes probably went to the WH in person to pick up the report that had been drafted by WH staff.

(6,486 posts)Every time the White House and Congressional Republicans do something totally bizarre (beyond their normal level of bizarre) and dramatically stupid, it means big new developments coming soon. It could be some major press scoop too, but after all of those we've had, it would really have to be a blockbuster to stir up the crazy this much.

Add this new count onto the already mountainous pile. Just another CRIME the spineless Congressional Republicans will ignore.

Nunes is going to prison, along with plenty of others. Let Donnie keep digging the hole bigger.

(12,213 posts)But we don't need anymore "a friend of a friend of a friend told me..." Tweets.
Such as the above Tweet: "A Republican who works" became "they also said."
This past year has had so many endless "shoes dropping" and Tweets from anonymous people that NEVER go anywhere.
Let's stick with the facts, and let the rumors pass us by.

Demsrule86
(68,593 posts)The 18 election is crucial. And like all of Trumps moves, it is heavy handed and obvious. With all those indictments and Mueller moving closer and closer to Trump and his worthless family, it looks more and more like collusion and this is obstruction...I have no doubt it will be added to the rest of Mueller's chargres...wouldn't surprise me if Nunes went to jail

(11,885 posts)Committing acts of terror around the world, then if trump is linked to him, and helping him, he too is a terrorist. Couldn't the 911 laws be used against him and all those as co-conspirators and terrorists too? Arrest them all, and throw away the keys. Nunes and others should be worried now. They've conspired with terrorists.

(1,142 posts)Someone posted that Derek Harvey, the guy who was brought by Flynn to the National Security Council, is the person that is drafting the GOP House Intelligence committee report on No Collusion between Trump Russia.
From what I was told he left the NSC when Flynn departed, and then went to work for the House Select Permanent Committee on Intelligence for Devin Nunes.
So basically the Trump WH is trying to control the narrative that comes out of this committee and it's investigation
Here is his wikipedia page which seems to confirm his role in the House committee
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derek_Harvey#United_States_House_Permanent_Select_Committee_on_Intelligence
National Security Council
On January 27, 2017, Harvey was tapped by former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn to join the National Security Council, as the Senior Director for Middle East and North African affairs.[10] National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster, a long time associate of Harvey's and fellow Petraeus accolade, dismissed him from his position on the National Security Council on July 27, 2017 after a series of reported disagreements.[11]
United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence
In September 2017, following his dismissal from the National Security Council, Harvey Joined the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence staff which is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.[2]

This is horrific. Absolutely horrific. And the Trumpers either don't believe it, or don't care because they like the result.
I'm VERY SCARED about what's going on. Trump + a gaggle of accomplices in positions of power = a coup. A semi-dictatorship. I'm very worried. I would never have thought this could happen in America.
