House Intel Chair Devin Nunes privately told several colleagues today that it's time for House GOP to hold Rosenstein and Wray in contempt of Congress, should they refuse to hand over requested docs, according to two people familiar with the discussions...

I think it is a bad look for the FBI to be stonewalling here. What is there to hide? What could possibly be a reason for not letting the american people know the facts here?

Good. Nut up and quit fricking around with respectfully written formal letters. Play by the rules or pay the price. Enough is enough.

Holder was held in contempt of Congress and what did that accomplish? Unless Nunes can send in some police force to physically take the documents, just like Mueller did to Trump's lawyer, then all of this is meaningless. I don't even know who would raid an FBI office.

Nothing will happen. Why? Because they'd lose the theater.

Haven't you learned yet Congress isn't the slightest bit interested in actually doing anything useful.

Fbi and doj prefer to leak to the media. A little out of context information here, a little out of context information there.

They feel as if they don't have to answer to any elected official.

They should do more than that.

They should file a lawsuit against them to comply with oversight and slash the DOJ and FBI budget to bring them to heel.

Mueller should call Nunes in for a “little talk”.

I’m guessing Nunes is too stupid to see that Mueller directly linked Trump’s campaign manager and his communications with Russian officials DURING THE CAMPAIGN.

This should not even be possible. There should never be any "request" from an OVERSIGHT body. It should be done in 24 hours (else, have a DAMNED good reason for it and a time certain for it to be completed) or the person responsible should be considered to have turned in his resignation.

Furthermore...every OVERSIGHT committee should have the authority to simply send a person over to retrieve said info. Just walk into any office, pull the files / download docs, etc.


It is silliness that there can be a "refusal" to cooperate, etc.

I'm conflicted on this. I don't know if this is a good move or not because if the OIG is moving forward with recommending indictments and the House gets that information not only does Nunes get that info but so does Schiff and Nadler. Then these recommended indictments are attacked by the Dems and the media.

This is too easily swatted aside by the NYT/CNN/WP/ABC/NBC as "partisan".

This is all well and good but after what we watched go down with the sham Hilldawg matter what makes anyone believe the documents that congress is requesting are still legit (unaltered) or for that matter even exist.

The Deep State has been working 24/7/365 trying to oust Trump while at the same time covering their corruption up by destroying any incriminating Swamp evidence.

Isn't this the title?

Devin Nunes Threatens to Impeach Rod Rosenstein

This should happen with quickness.

Step1: House holds RR in contempt of Congress.
Step2: Trump fires RR with cause.
Step3: Mueller shites his pants.
