THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY

[Duchess]

So let me see if I understand this from the brief news reports I've heard today. Some guy on the committee investigating the Russian/Trump campaign potential connection went running over to the White House today and, without telling anyone on the committee, told Trump (who, along with his committee IS being investigated), the press and everyone that would listen that they might have found some tidbit of information that supports Trump's assertion that he was NOT being "wire tapped" but he was possibly under some sort of surveillance. So, he told one of the people being investigated likely classified information about the persons/group being investigated.

Is that about it?

Yup, that's about it. This was surprising to many people, it shouldn't have been though. Devin Nunes was part of the transition team yet, he's also on the committee investigating those on the transition team. He publicly discussed FISA approved surveillance and he attributed his information to an anonymous source. This was a complete breakdown of the oversight process. Why would a high ranking chairman of the House Select Committee on Intelligence immolate himself in front of his country? I'm more curious about THAT than I am the info he gave trump. I think Nunes was tricked but then I think, surely he's not that stupid to fall for an old spy trick.
