Maybe you will decide to be honest for once in your life and be critical of people with a d beside their name who break the law.
"For another, it turned out that no members on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence had even seen the texts, according to Nunes and others on the committee."
The copies of the texts had been sent by a law firm to the staff of the House Intelligence Committee, he says, and the staffers quickly realized they didn’t want to start snooping in the communications of their Senate counterparts. “No member [of the committee] looked at them. The staff looked at them and said, ‘We don’t want to have anything to do with this.’” He said the documents were sent back to the law firm.
If a law firm had them, who knows who leaked them.
Well Fox claimed it was from a "Republican source" and Nunes has never denied it. It's not rocket science.
Wrong. You didn't read the article. At all.
The New York Times reported March 1 that Warner and the Senate panel chairman, Richard Burr of North Carolina, had met with House speaker Paul Ryan in February to complain about Nunes, blaming Nunes for the leak. But after the Times report came out, Burr told CNN’s Manu Raju that much of the paper’s account was flat wrong. He denied that the Senate Intelligence Committee had concluded that Nunes or House Republicans were behind the leak of the Warner texts. He also denied that they he and Warner had raised their concerns with Ryan. “We met with Speaker Ryan to update him on our investigation,” Burr told Raju. “That was it.”
“We’re not investigating Warner, we don’t give a sh** about him,” Nunes tells me. The copies of the texts had been sent by a law firm to the staff of the House Intelligence Committee, he says, and the staffers quickly realized they didn’t want to start snooping in the communications of their Senate counterparts. “No member [of the committee] looked at them. The staff looked at them and said, ‘We don’t want to have anything to do with this.’” He said the documents were sent back to the law firm.
I'm not wrong, but no I did not read the Federalist article. None of what you posted refutes Fox saying they received it from a "Republican source" and nothing that you posted is Nunes denying that he (or more likely his staff) leaked it.
He didn't deny the leak. He said he wasn't investigating Warner....no one said he was.
If ya break the law and they have enough evidence that you did, you go to jail, whether I criticize them or not. I'm not the one defending someone who gets a former team member indicted every other week, that'd be you.
I did earlier, ITT, say it was most likely his staff. I'll post it here to help you out:
Your AG has been the only one ever found in contempt of Congress. I don't trust the 7th floor until it gets cleaned out, and it's not yet.
lmfao, call me when they finally have enough "evidence" to prosecute "my" AG, why on earth wouldn't they have? Thankfully the law doesn't work on who or what you trust. You'd think the current AG and DOJ was mine too!
