This is all bullshit to give Trump cover for his lies..but it actually makes him look more guilty.

a victor gives no quarter (or takes no prisoners[1]) when the victor shows no clemency or mercy and refuses to spare the life of a vanquished opponent in return for their surrender at discretion (unconditional surrender).[2] In some circumstances, the opposing forces would signal their intention to give no quarter by using a red flag;[3][4] however, the use of a red flag to signal no quarter does not appear to have been universal among combatants.

We know they were surveilling the Russians and Flynn who was part of Trump's team...there may be more...as Comey refused to say.

Nunes still says Trump was wrong to claim Obama ordered wiretapping of Trump. That did not happen Nunes says.

But Nunes claims he saw intelligence report of of legal FISA warrant(s) of foreigners that inadvertently apparently recorded Trump and associates or mentioned their names. However everything was legally collected and names were properly masked. No conclusions could be drawn and this particular report was not involving Russians. Nunes is concerned that some leaks may have occurred of the masked names being unmasked by leakers.

Nunes is simply muddying waters, providing flimsy bandaid to give Trump some cover with no justification, since he still says Trump wrong to claim Obama ordered wiretaps as this report was not targeting Trump or any Americans and was entirely legal
