    Mark this thread... As time goes on, he will get caught, along with Nunes trying to hide info, both will be in trouble as the week goes on...
    Manafort offered to come forward at first, then backed down. He received 10M a year and was removed from the trump campaign because the campaign and Trump knew if they cut ties at the time, the collusion might slide through and no one would catch it... CAUGHT.. and it will come out.
    Nunes meanwhile is collecting INFO on TRUMP / OBAMA / CLINTON and whoever else. Is suppose to take this information, hold it tight, and share only with his committee, yet he runs over to the whitehouse with it and comments publically as if (it needed to be shares with TRUMP) Trump states on this conversation that he now "feels partially vindicated" this is after meeting with Nunes.
    Nunes had said that - From CNBC
    The chairman of the House intelligence committee has backed down from his dramatic assertion that Donald Trump and his aides were "monitored," by U.S. spies — a claim the Republicans have cited this week in emails to loyalists. Mind you, this is information he never even showed to the committee ! Now he is backing away from the claim ?
    What he has done is grounds for termination, along with the Speaker for NOT making him go to the committee with the information and going to directly to the President. In the end we will find out the INFORMATION found was collusion between Manafort and the Russian, all part of the 10M a year that Manafort was receiving, and this info (now found as proof) had to be transferred over to Trump via Nunes because NUNES has been told by the speaker to COME TO ME WITH ALL INFO and I will tell you what to do with it.
    This is all over the top hiding of information by the republican party. Just like when Clinton got busted, Nixon too, wanted to hide all the wategate info... All bad, All Politicians, Not just republicans. You should not cover for your politician just because he is in your faction. Don't do it or you will go down with them... Nunes is going down, so is the speaker. Trump on the other hand has no tie with it... He is smart to make others do his dirty work.
    He is just a liar, a grouper, does not know how to govern... He promised he would take care of OBAMACARE right away, now he is blaming the Dems... This CRAP never ends..
    Until we as americans step up and stop taking this Finanical backed Garbage, we are all stuck down here in poor town..

    Nunes is a joke, Manafort is a joke, Trump is a joke and a liar.

    Trump has 37% "approval" and headed further down.

    What else is new?

    Manafort is on Putin's payroll. Trump is in Putin's back pocket. Nunes is in over his head.

    Nunes appears to have made his move in a not so veiled attempt to destroy the credibility of the committee because he knows that Manafort did something that if not illegal is at least immoral but still gives the perception of illegality.
    What needs to happen is impeachment which will not happen since the GOP controls both houses.

    There is more and more evidence pointing to nefarious links between Russia and the Trump campaign. We know the liar-in-chief DID meet Putin at least once during Miss America held in Russia - possibly innocent, but why all the lying??? We are supposed to believe Sessions meetings were harmless - so why did HE lie - too many lies, too much denial.
    The financial links Trump has to Russian funds is a treasure trove of corruption.
    Nunes and other Trump lackeys will not be able to hide all of the filth that will come out of investigations. We can only hope for enough patriots to get the truth out.

    This nonsense about Nunes tipping off Trump about the Russian connection is nothing but a sophomoric diversion and smokescreen to divert attention away from the likelihood that the Obama administration illegally and immorally used government intelligence surveillance to spy on and cause trouble for a presidential candidate and a president- elect on his team, which, as Bob Woodward said, would obliterate Watergate.

    At this point it's silly to speculate, since nothing is is happening until the coming week anyway.

    If that were the case, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee would have briefed his colleagues before running to the White House. He didn't do that, which is a fundamental breach of his colleagues' trust. That act undermines his credibility as Chairman and the credibility of his whole investigation.

    Trump made up the claim about Obama wiretapping the Trump Tower, and folks like Nunes have been trying to give him cover ever since.

    On Wednesday, Nunes berayed his colleagues by running to Trump and the television cameras. The next day, he apologizes and announces that Comey et al are going to testify.

    The next day, he cancels that hearing, again with no explanation to his colleagues.

    It is clear that something is going on, and the Nunes is being used (or actively colluding) with the White House while they try and get their story straight.

    Woodward sold his credibility for big checks and access during the George W Bush era. His opinion hardly matters.

    Since few are contesting the apparant fact that the Russians tried to cause trouble for a presidential candidate, looking into what went on, and whether that candidate's opponant might be in on the deal is clearly appropriate.(especially in the light of a mountain of past associaitions and connections within that campaign)).

    Democrats are absolutely pathetic ! Breaking news ! Nunes was on the White house ground the day before " he ran to tell trump" . Oh my God, a senator on the White house grounds, it's obvious he is working side by side with Putin. And Trump's son in law he is the devil, how could someone marry a Trump and not be the devil . Ridiculous ! If you hypocrites cared one iota about Russians and collusion and corruption you would have never ever ever voted for a Democrat!

    You say that now,,, still coming out, yes, he was on the grounds and wasn't suppose to be there. Then went back the next day, should not have been there again, then withheld the info, blah blah... Getting deeper and they can't find a way out of this mess.... I think if they create enough ins and outs, maybe everyone will be too confused and forget about Manafort... That is the plan... Manafort to JAIL, Nunes back to California selling insurance... Once Trump is done using him...

    What a silly sad post.

    Nunes, Manafort, Trump, Russians, oh my!

    More democrat chickens running round with their heads cut off.

    There is no there, there, except the Obama administration illegally listening to the opposition party during the election.

    Watergate 2.0

    The investigation will show nothing illegal done by President Trump, or his people, or Nunes, but that Obama and his people were running an illegal police state spying for political gain scam.

    Lock him up, take away his protection and his pay, and all his administration to.
    Hope and change.
    I hope they chain him up.

    Nunes going to the minority leader is a simple courtesy and does nothing to subtract from a chairman of an investigative committee form informing a person that he and his colleagues and family might have been illegally surveilled. His information had zero to do with any alleged collusion with the Russians, which Clapper on down have said there is no credible evidence for such. It is just creating a smokescreen mountain out of nothing, running around with arms flapping and shouting 'don't look at that, look at this!'. It wasn't until late election night, after their shoe-in landslide victor flamed out and caused this mass depression that they dreamt up the Russian collusion tale.

    Yes it is clear that something is going on and that is Obama and his administration feloniously using national intelligence to surveil an opposing presidential candidate.

    Actually Woodward enhanced his credibility in the Bush era which is why the Democrats and media trashed him so -- he's too old said one cute little ignorant info babe, not good enough to sharpen Woodward's pencil.

    I think the Clintons were corrupt too. Taking shots at Dems doesn't bother me a bit... Obama made a ton of mistakes too. Just the fact that we can't see who is going in and out of the Whitehouse tell you how much BS is going on...
    You know, FOX is getting ready to talk to Nunes and it is going to be ALL SET UP... Ask this, this and this, then make it sound like NOTHING happened... Can you only imagine if DEMS did this a couple years ago... People From Alabama, and the Sticks would get in their short bus and go to washington...
    Obama was leader in nothing if you ask me. He fell right into the easy peasy role, don't do anything guy, play golf, take it easy, LAZY and now michelle is on all the womens magazines, talk show lady, blah blah... Country is a mess, divided and the rich are raking it in...
    Still - NUNES did a lot he shouldn't have, and it will come out... Blast it all you want, even if it is nothing but small news, you cant go to the whitehouse, get info, not share it, then keep it, cancel meeting, etc. and do it all, because TRUMP and the speaker is leading you by the nose. That is what we don't hear about, Trump is running the house too, not just the white house, but Congress through the speaker and covering with Nunes...

    'Talk their way out' of exactly what? When will the left realize that their every mind fart or temper tantrum does not rise to the level of actionable legal procedures.

    Every time the left has a toddler tantrum does not make their delusions real.

    Nunes was just on O'Reilly. He sure doesn't sound like he's backing down to me.

    Remember when Hillary was being investigated and Bill visited Lynch on the her plain. Three days later all disappeared. No need for a special prosecutor there just lift the rug and sweep.

    Amazing what a couple of months can do.

    Trump and everyone involved with him is over their head deep with Russians. Not one SOB has not had some type of dirty dealing or connection to and with Russia, it's corrupt oligarchy and ex-KGB murderer Putin.
