Devin Nunes has escalated the Russian investigation. The Free Beacon reports:
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., sent another letter Thursday — his third in a week — to two fellow GOP chairmen, referring to them 15 people connected to the Russia investigation for testimony in an “open setting.”
Many of the individuals on the list, sent to House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., are tied to Hillary Clinton and the infamous Trump dossier, which contains compromising, yet unverified claims about President Trump’s ties to Russia. Compiled in 2016, the research effort was conducted by ex-British spy Christopher Steele and was funded in part by Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
Glenn Simpson and Thomas Catan, co-founders of Fusion GPS, the opposition research company that commissioned Steele, are included on the list. Also mentioned is Nellie Ohr, wife of Justice Department official Bruce Ohr, whom Republicans in the House Intelligence Committee alleged in a February memo “was employed by Fusion GPS to assist in the cultivation of opposition research on Trump.” Ohr, who according to the GOP memo delivered his wife’s research to the FBI, was demoted from his role as associate deputy attorney general late last year after it was discovered he had secret meetings with Simpson and Steele.
Nunes has led an inquiry looking into the genesis of the federal Russia investigation as well as alleged abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act to spy on at least one member of the Trump campaign, all the while being panned by his Democratic colleagues. For instance, last week Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who is the ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee, told CNN that Nunes was one of the “the four horsemen of this apocalypse,” along with Gowdy and Reps. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., and Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, for their effort to push the DOJ to submit materials “that can be leaked or fed or misrepresented, like the infamous Nunes memorandum, in the service of the president.
Will this put pressure on the Democrats?
I was never a “fan” of the then Donald Trump. But this guy has done and is doing some really GOOD things for this nation as president. I don’t claim the GOP nor the democrat party, I have voted independent for a long time. But what I have seen on the tube and what I have heard from these people of both sides tells me that the United States of America is being railroaded into ruin. Not one piece of evidence has been posted by Mr. Mueller that will stand court scrutiny. Yet this continues at the peoples expense and I believe it will continue, at least, through the mid term elections. I believe that Mr. Mueller is getting a huge paycheck under the table to keep it going. But the bottom line is: If all these scumbag politicians would stop protecting themselves and their pocketbooks and make just the slightest effort to help the president the nation would greatly benefit. If nothing else comes from this, “we the people” have seen the proof that these elected politicians go to Washington to fatten their bank accounts, not represent the people nor the nation. When the president said “Drain the Swamp” I don’t think even he had any idea just how BIG the swamp really is. Be you democrat or republican take a good look at what is being done to you and your country by your own political party.
Mueller should not be investigating anyone, he should have been fired years ago. He put four innocent men in prison for murder when he knew the real killer an informant for the FBI. Mueller was head of the FBI in Boston when this happened. Two died in prison and two were finally released after serving 20+years. Now the kicker the court awarded the families over 100 million dollars. He should have lost his law license and should have been fired. But there are others in the investigation that are also cost thousands of jobs and the lost of a major accounting firm. The supreme court over ruled the verdict 9-0 and he also had another case over ruled by the Supreme court 9-0, this creep should also have been fired and lost his license to practice law. Only in the federal government can you get away with criminal activity and stay on the job and collect retirement from the tax payers. This has got to stop. Also we need term limits two terms in the house and one four year term in the senate and they cannot go from house to the other and ZERO RETIREMENT. We have to stop career politicians that have screwed this country for years and they are in both parties looking out for themselves instead of the people of this country.
You are absolutely spot on concerning Mueller. He was chosen specifically because of his history of being overly aggressive. Not that being overly aggressive is a terrible thing when one has the evidence. But Mueller has none. Recently he indicted 13 Russian companies or individuals which was pure theatrics. Mueller knows as non Americans these indictments were done for effect. But one of them called his bluff and has responded and demanded to see the evidence against them. Mueller has none and sought to derail the situation by trying to postpone his side of the issue. A federal judge has ordered Mueller to move forward with “all due haste” to respond to his indictees as the legal system requires. Mueller never expected this and is now fumbling trying to recover his dignity; something he has never had in the first place.
Bill, Muller’s investigation was used to divert the attention of the public from FBI re-opening the investigation of Hillary Clinton.
Well said.
1,000 upvotes. You are implying the problem: Democrats always put party over country. They think they have a winning strategy and screw the country to stay the course. We could have a true flowering of America if they would stop acting like they HAVE to win.
well said
This is actually bigger than most think. Insider sources say there are already over 4,000 sealed indictments. This is going to explode into something the world has never seen before. It is supposed to happen this month. I am quietly waiting, because this will be good for everyone…When the Cabal goes DOWN!!!!!!
Dave, 4000 sealed indictments of who? Stop deceiving yourself.
Well said, Dave; however, I question whether the indictments will be acknowledged by the Deep State or the left as being valid. There is a lot of sand on the beaches, and people sometimes prefer to bury their heads in the sand rather than acknowledge that there is something fundamentally wrong on the Left.
FBI/DOJ started this investigation based on something they “conjured up”. This was an illegal act. Therefore, the investigation from the very start was poisoned. Anything revealed thereafter is considered “fruit of the poisonous tree” and can’t be used in any legal proceeding. We know it was all a ruse, so why is this costly charade of an investigation continuing? It’s MOOT.
K52……I totally agree with your post with exception of:
The Demoncrats will never let this end until the Presidency is destroyed. Nunes is doing exactly what he has to do to let the American populace hear what these goons have to say or “not say” and take the 5th to hide their lies. I detest spending the money; however look at the tax dollars spent by Mueller trying to take down the President. Nunes is doing exactly what he has to do!
BECAUSE, IF THE ‘PROG. PARTY’, STOPS, ‘NOW,’ THEY WILL BE FORCED, TO ADMIT THAT THEY ‘PROMOTED EVERYTHING, ON PURPOSE’! NO ONE BELIEVED TRUMP WOULD WIN! ‘THEY’, TRULY BELIEVED, ‘THE FIX WAS IN’ & ‘ILLARY’, WOULD ‘GET HER REWARD, BY BECOMING PRESIDENT! FIRST, ‘SHE’, SUPPOSEDLY, ‘EARNED IT’, SECONDLY, ‘SHE’, WANTED TO ‘SHOW BILL, ‘SHE’, WAS ‘BETTER-AND THE DNC, WANTED, TO ‘PLACE HER IN THE PRESIDENCY’, BECAUSE THEY ‘OWED HER’! NO ONE WANTS TO ‘DISS’, ‘ILLARY’! TOO MANY, ‘DEAD BODIES’! TRUMP, WAS ‘AN OUTSIDER’-A ‘CLOWN-AN ‘AFTERTHOUGHT’! IT WAS ALL ‘FIXED’! HA! SOMEHOW, SOMEWAY, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, ACTUALLY, ‘STOOD UP’ & VOTED! DAMN IT! ‘THOSE,’IDIOT, USELESS, DEPLORABLES’, SCREWED UP OUR ENTIRE FUTURE! eeeehaw!
We are ready to vote Trump again, he’s doing great job for American people.
Emmanuel Unigwe, I believe he is doing a great job too! Considering how many disagree with him on some issues, nonetheless, he just keeps moving forward. I do not see our President as being fixated on a “popularity contest”; rather, he wants to bring back the America we had before 2014. He has a difficult road ahead but he will achieve his goals.
you bet in spite of the socialist party
We have known this from the beginning—and all the liberals are quite willing to let this go on forever! Why can’t it just be stopped?
The left is hardly Democratic party. Actually there are different factions of what I call progressives. They will not stop until this country is upside down. They hate America.
the democrats need to stop dividing our country and start working with President Trump to get our country back in line
You all understand that the House Committee is just apologist for Trump and suck ass quality buffoons who have denied the Russian influence in the election entirely. The same committee in the Senate reached the opposite conclusion and the public knows that Trump is a Russian agent in the presidency. He must be extracted and punished for being a traitor.
BS
Moron
LIES BY HILL.
You are a real POS!! You post lies that have no basis in fact. Either you have an I.Q. less than 50 are just only interested in destroying this once great country instead of restoring it to the beacon for freedom it once was!
I voted for Trump and not for “Crooked” ; the influence on me was Donald Trump. The Democrats are a bunch of sore losers.
Your biased response is VERY skimpy of facts; in fact, there are no facts.
Names of “suck ass quality buffoons” who have denied the Russian meddling.
Names of credible “public” figures that have evidence of POTUS Trump being a “Russian agent.”
Names of the members on this “unbiased” Senate Committee.
If you have such “credible” evidence, why have you not testified before Mueller’s committee?
You liberal buffoon, you wouldn’t know a snake until it bit you and left you paralyzed. You spew this crap, without even knowing what your talking about.
When are you going to invest in a brain so you can think for yourself. I hate it when sheep say and do things, like a sheep, you are definitely a ewe.
DISILLUSIONAL AREN’T YOU?
Sick-sick-sick, go have another toke
Mr Hill. Trump is o more a Russian agent than Obama is a Brother in the Muslim Brotherhood. Well, maybe he is a Brother in the Muslim Brotherhood. Trump is certainly not an agent of Russia.
Mr Hill. Trump is no more a Russian agent than Obama is a Brother in the Muslim Brotherhood. Well, maybe he is a Brother in the Muslim Brotherhood. Trump is certainly not an agent of Russia.
Ray, it seems that you were there but let me ask you, how can Russian meddling earn my vote for Trump? We knew before the election that Hillary is crooked and it’s been so long they have been playing global politics with lives of American people. Russia did not cast my vote for Trump, I did.
Emmanuel Unigwe, EXCELLENT! Your comment really nails this. IT is something I wish I would have said.
You are talking about McCain right?
Ray are you really that Dumb? I say yes! It’s time freaks like you leave our God Blessed Country. We are tired of nuts like you trying to destroy America.
Ray Hill- you are so full of yourself you can’t even begin to see the truth! Which is as plain as the nose on anyone’s face. The Clinton “cartel” believed they had the election illegally rigged same as when they assisted the kinyun to assume the office. Dead voters, illegal immigrants illegally voting while the left looked the other way, felons illegally voting…, all proven FACTS not propaganda. Deny these FACTS all you want, you can’t change or erase them. The only chance the left has had for a win over the last two decades has been by CHEATING AND BREAKING THE LAW. Then when they are caught at their lies and crimes they shout and scream and throw tantrums like five year old children. And then immediately decide that the rules did not allow them to win, so they must change those rules. Nothing EVER changes with the left except the faces, and they just seem to get older, uglier, and more hate-filled. The lefts iwn leaders have stated many times that the party policy is “the end justifies the means to that end”. Meaning lie, cheat, even commit murder if necessary. They will throw their own under the bus at the drop of a hat. The supposed law enforcement agencies of the Federal government have been stacked at the highest levels with “ringers” dedicated to the destruction of America as a Constitutional Republic, attempting to replace it with an open bordered non-country with no future as a free , sovereign nation. I don’t have to fabricate any of these FACTS out of thin air, the left has left more than enough of a trail of corruption to substantiate every single FACT I have outlined. And it is impossible for YOU to dispute any if these FACTS without exposing yourself further as the bald-faced liar you obviously are. If you read my post carefully you will realize that not once have I resorted to childishness, or lowered myself to brash infantile name calling, nor have I stooped to making unsubstantiated statements. Those types of behavior are only necessitated by an opposing viewpoint which had no FACTUAL substance to add to an intelligent, informed discussion.
Ray-fortunately for you and all if your leftist friends, Donald Trump IS your president, like it or not. It’s such s shame that you cannot embrace that fact and thrive, prosper, and enjoy the return to greatness that he is bringing about. Pull your head out of the small orofice God placed in your backside and rejoice in the fact that he is NOT a traitor, unlike the bureaucrats left in place by the previous administration which actually were quite traitorous. Get with the program here and Lise the hatred and anger that you espouse and find out what it is like to actually feel good about yourself as you become a productive valuable individual in this great country after getting a job and actually doing a day’s work for a day’s pay.
It seems that democrat and RINO office holders are not really representatives at all. They are essentially employees of the party but get paid by taxpayers. And a number of govt employees who are hired to implement legislation and budget of congress and the president are also trained by the democrats to implement party desires. They are supposed to be politically neutral . And this patronage/party politics has even seemed into the SC and other court of the judicial branch? Is this a way for them to impose personal political views on the general population? This has been going on for decades, and is a dramatic illustration of what socialism corruption will be all about.

It takes honorable people to do honorable things. In the case of govt and/or business, the party or even church/mosque/synagogue the org it self will not turn pols into honorable people. But anyone can reach deep inside of themselves, realize God is calling them and repent I wonder if any of these people that have become party employees find it easy to live with their treachery? Judas apparently didn’t? Has DC been turned into a modern Sodom and Gomorrah?

Be interesting to see someone explain how regulations that protect the citizenry from the excesses of the private sector are bad for the nation since the nation is really the people who live here.
July 8, 2018Reply
The excesses of the private sector have abated somewhat. Child labor, sweat shops, taxation w/o representation is still here, and new forms of censorship by facebook, Google, and no telling who else. But now we have public excesses by govt. Women’s suffrage and Jim Crow have been eliminated while public beheading of millions of unborn humans just like me and you have not been eliminated Maybe we have party excesses like giving sanctuary places to illegals, and want to flood the nation with amnesty people so they will be available to vote democrat?
You know that you and are the only ones with common sense, and sometimes I’m not sure about you!
Does this mean that we see some real action soon?
DRAIN THE SWAMP…….immediately !!!!!!!!!!
Getting better everyday. 🙂
We could sell tickets to this hanging to pay off the debt!
Hey now Evy- there’s an idea I can get behind. After all, that is the penalty for treason.
President Trump should call Camp Lejuene NC and have a platoon of Recon Marines sent up bringing ropes with them. Snatch Mueller, Comyt McCabe, Rosenstine, Lynch Holder and Obama, and hang them from light posts in front of the white house
I’ll second that motion!!!! Public hanging on the White House lawn with popcorn and beer served to voyeurs. Wow, if only…………..
BEST DAMNED IDEA I HAVE HEARD YET BECAUSE THE CORRUPT “DEEP STATE” WILL NOT TO IT!
I always said it should be a nationally televised hanging for Oblowzo, the Clintons, Comey, Mueller, Rice, Yates, Lerner, McCabe, Rosenstein, Brennan, Lynch (appropriate), Holder, Koskinen to mention a few held at midnight July 3 rd (you pick the year) on the White House lawn! ….Maybe even putting on the fag light show for the event would be a nice touch!.. What think you???
The deep state will blow it off as propaganda. I wish it would happen but Pubs. are to weak as they don’t stick together.
That has got to be one of the stupidest comments I have read in a very long time.
You people bitch and complain about the Left and their outright gangland tactics and then you all chime in with this moron who wants a public lynching without a trial.
Have you stooped to their level? Is this the way Americans act?
Everyone of you who responded with cheers to this noron should be ashamed of yourselves.
You sound like the voice of reason………the frustration on both sides of the fence is at a high level and we have to be careful we are not being manipulated……..having said that ..this is what happens when law and order breaks down ( DOJ. FBI,) the confidence of the citizens is diminished and all manner of conspiracies abound, anarchy is prevalent. I do believe that there are those in government who would overthrow the will of the people at any cost we do need to have sunlight ,and I for one am not comfortable how things are being processed by the special council.
Jac- don’t you mean the ‘special’ council? It certainly has been ‘special’ so far. In the manner of “The Church Lady” from SNL. Well, isn’t that ‘special’!
There was a question posed that asked whether Obama had wiretapped Trump before the election. It is true. He obtained both FISA and FISC warrants. The reason I know this is true, is that Obama told me he had done this. It was early on a Monday morning before the election and we were in a classroom-style setting.Why Obama decided to tell me about this I’ll never know, because I have never been a “fan” of him. I was shocked and upset that he would stoop so low! I was upset for days after learning this; however, the “rest of the story” was better. The wiretaps revealed nothing other than standard phone calls. During the search, which was on video tape and should still be available, it was conclusively proved that NOTHING was found, including phone calls; that in any led to Obama’s conspiracy theory. The servers in Trump Towers were thoroughly examined, more than once. NO TIES TO RUSSIA! To my knowledge, there was nothing on the wiretaps that suggested anything involving candidate Trump was amiss!
What’s a noron?
Russell, I don’t gnow what a “noron” is either. Maybe would like to gnow, though.
I agree, this will never happen, but I see us coming dangerously close to another Civil War.
Go and screw your self. moron.
You’re blind- no one advocated fir hanging without a trial. A public hanging after the trial fir treason- sure. But not without due process, something they would not do for anyone on the conservative side of the floor.
I like your idea. Yep
I think that is a brilliant idea!!!
RIGHT you are Gerald.
and i speak as another MARINE.
Amen
Let’s not forget Maxine Waters. I feel the Lord is working on that right now. Soon he will have them on their knees without us doing a thing. Just stand still an watch the mighty righteous hand of the Lord as he is already doing. The Left still have not figured out what or who stopped them in the Election. I do!
Gerald you forgot the ringleader- that great evil legal mind- HRC.
