Delusional Nunes Says ‘Democrats Aren’t Really Serious’ About Trump-Russia Investigation

Maybe it’s time we consider the possibility that Devin Nunes has lost his freaking mind.

The Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, who canceled hearings into the Trump-Russia connection which were scheduled to resume on Monday, now says he doesn’t think Democrats on the committee are serious about the matter.

In an interview with NBC News, Nunes whined:

“We’re beginning to figure out who’s actually serious about the investigation. Because it appears like the Democrats aren’t really serious about the investigation.”

Coming from the person who ran to the White House under cover of night so he could kiss Donald Trump’s ass and plot strategy with the administration after last week’s damaging revelations from FBI Director James Comey, that statement is both ironic and hypocritical as hell.

Nunes then added:

“They need to give us their witness list because we have no idea who they even want to interview. As far as I know they’ve done very little to even look through the documents that the intelligence agencies have provided. So, at the end of the day here, we’re going to get to the truth, we’re going to find out who’s actually doing a real investigation.”

Who’s actually doing a real investigation?! We’ve already found that out, Devin, and it sure as hell isn’t you!

The California Republican, who may well be in danger of losing his seat in 2018, also threatened to conduct the investigation without his Democratic colleagues:

“At the end of the day, we’re going to do an investigation with or without them. And if they wan’t to participate, that’s fine.”

If Nunes is so eager to have the hearings, why did he cancel them when he saw that former acting Attorney General Sally Yates was scheduled to testify this week? That move alone stinks of cover up and obfuscation. If he’s so damn ready to investigate, why did he feel the need to pull the plug at the last minute? Probably because both he and White House knew Yates would contradict the lies and talking points Trump and his team have been using for weeks now.

This entire thing stinks to high heaven. Nunes needs to be removed as chairman of the committee, and an independent counsel or commission should be appointed to determine just how badly Donald Trump and his buddy Vladimir Putin have damaged American national security.
