Nunes canceled Russia hearings to keep Sally Yates from testifying: ex-CIA and Defense

I think anyone paying attention knew they'd keep Yates as far from the hearing as possible......she's got the skinny....... and wth, Nunes cancelled both hearings this week, this is SO obvious....

The mysterious “midnight run” by Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) on the White House grounds last week was ploy to keep former acting attorney general Sally Yates from testifying about the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, according to a former top official with the CIA and the Department of Defense.

Nunes, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee that’s investigating the Russian ties, abruptly canceled this week’s hearings as questions swirled around his visits to the White House to pick up intelligence related to the probe and then brief President Donald Trump on the findings.

The House panel was scheduled to hear from Yates on Tuesday, as well as former President Barack Obama’s former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former CIA Director John Brennan.

Jeremy Bash, the former chief of staff at Defense Department and CIA under Obama, said Nunes concocted the stunt to shut down the testimony of Yates — who Trump fired for refusing to enforce his travel ban, and after she expressed concern about former national security adviser Michael Flynn’s communications with the Russian ambassador.

Yes, just saw this on the news. Hell Nunes is probably entwined in all this.

Oh for crying out loud! Another freaking fairy tale rolls out.

Both FBI and NSA chief declined to show up so it had to be cancelled. Over 100 questions they can't answer in an open setting.

Also, I'm noticing CNN constantly suggest Nunes and his team are "dysfunctional" attempting to inject their own opinions to influence the viewers.

Quite frankly, more and more this appears to have been an order from Obama, there wouldn't be this much focus from CNN otherwise. Nunes must have some serious dirt.
