It looks like a couple of bad boys are about to get a spanking.

Last night we highlighted a Fox News story which suggested that Devin Nunes expected the NSA to deliver a "smoking gun" which would prove that the Obama administration spied on the Trump transition team, and possibly the president-elect himself, as early as today.
Moments ago, Nunes fanned that speculation by holding an impromptu press conference announcing that he'll call both FBI Director Comey and NSA Director Rogers before a closed session of the House Intelligence Committee to discuss topics which "they couldn't answer in a public setting."
Devin Nune's has no authority over FBI Director James Comey or the NSA. Devin Nune is just a Republican congressman out of California. It's quite the opposite--it's they that have the authority in this investigation.
Devin Nune had to appologize for leaking information in this investigation to the Trump team and also to the media--when he stated that the Trump campaign was under survellience during the transistion.
Very True that's how General Flynn got busted for lying to the FBI regarding his conversation with the Russian ambassador. They did indeed talk about the new sanctions regarding Obama throwing all Russian diplomats out of this country, and that's what Flynn lied about.
Comey has aleady testified this week that Trump and his surrogates have been under investigation
since July 2016 when the RNC convention was being held.
In Cleveland, J.D. Gordon, a Trump surrogate--met with the Russian Ambassador and they were actually writing foreign policy together.
That was enough to send off a 6 alarm fire bell to all intelligent agencies in this country.
"
Another national security adviser to the Trump campaign, J.D. Gordon, also disclosed Thursday that he had met with Kislyak, this time during the Republican National Convention in Cleveland in July. That meeting was first reported by USA Today. Gordon had advocated for language in the GOP platform that the Ukrainians not be armed in their battle against pro-Russian separatists, an effort was ultimately successful.
But Gordon says he was simply advocating what Trump himself had expressed -- that he did not wish to see major war break out over the situation in Ukraine."

Nune has downplayed this investigation all the way through.Continually citing no evidence of collusion, but his Democrat counterpart on the same intelligence committee had this to say about that.
Now Devin Nunes wants a closed door hearing with all parties involved and has postponed the hearing that was scheduled for March 28, 2017. And
everyone except the Trump team is having a conniption fit about it.
"The committee is also delaying its March 28 hearing, a decision infuriating Democrats on the committee."
"The Chairman just cancelled open Intelligence Committee hearing with (former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper,) (former CIA Director John Brennan) and (former deputy Attorney General Sally Yates) in attempt to choke off public info," Rep. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the committee tweeted a moment before going to speak to the press Friday morning.
Congressman Schiff refused to say whether he thought Nunes should step down from his position, telling reporters, "What's really involved here is the cancellation of this open hearing and the rest is designed to distract."

The Washington post is stating that the house intelligence committee (because of Devin Nunes) needs to shut down their investigation, because of his grandstanding.
