Nunes is talking to Gowdy.
Mentions how important he was on the Intel committee. https://twitter.com/DevinNunes/status/1262847323870093313
Nunes mentions that Halloween 2016 article again for the 2nd time. The one that was a CYA saying they had investigated Trump campaign and come up with nothing.
Nunes is on fire...
Nunes reminds Gowdy that he (Nunes) is the one who told him (Gowdy) things really began b4 July 2016..
They are talking about meetings with DOJ and FBI officials in 2017 and 2018 (RR and Wray) they were repeatedly told that there was no targeting of the campaign...nothing amiss in the investigation..
Big smack down on them.
It culminated right before their memo came out. With an emergency meeting with the speaker. Made public. They didn't want to hand over documents.
Ryan said they had to.
Nunes thinks they were leaking and trying to blame it on HPSCI GOP.
They are talking about subpoenas. They were hesitant to issue them because of optics of fighting Trump appointed people. The excuse for the stonewalling was Mueller.
They later learned with hindsight they were being lied to by Wray and RR.
Nunes says again that Mueller and Weismann and FBI were looking to trap them in an obstruction charge.
Now Nunes is saying Coates was trying to cover up what happened by not releasing the transcripts.
Nunes said people ask him why he didn't tell people what was said in the transcripts?
He says we did. We wrote it in our report
There was no evidence whatsoever of collusion, coordination or anything.
They are saying that McCabe opened the obstruction case and Mueller began with investigating obstruction, because they knew Russia was a hoax that they had perpetrated.
They met with Wray/ RR and said if Mueller is charging Flynn with lying then your people lied to us. He wants to know who hid all the exculpatory evidence at DOJ.
