Now this is just crazy.
Democrats in the House of Representatives have argued for the last week that the Nunes Memo was a big nothing-burger, or worse for Republicans that it would backfire on their caucus and give Democrats more of an upper hand to take over in November.
Congressman Ted Lieu (D-Torrance) told a Hermosa Beach audience that the Nunes Memo wouldn't matter.
Oh yes it does!
So much so, that US Senator Kamala Harris is trying to rally support to have Nunes removed as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee!
Give it a rest, Kammy! It's over!
Arthur –
Yesterday, Donald Trump and Republicans like Congressman Devin Nunes weaponized classified intelligence in a blatant attempt to undermine the Russia investigation.
As you well know, this had nothing to do with transparency and everything to do with playing politics with national security. It is just wrong.
We cannot allow political gain and expediency to discredit the investigation into Russia's influence in our elections and the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia.
That’s why we need to fight back today and pressure the Republicans to remove Rep. Devin Nunes — who has acted in bad faith for well over a year now — from the House Intelligence Committee and demand they protect the Russia investigation from any political interference from the White House.
I will continue to support the brave men and women in our law enforcement — including the Special Counsel — who must be given the independence to do their job and find the truth, free of political interference. I hope you join me in this fight.
Thanks for everything you do,
Kamala Harris
