“Several leftwing activist groups have filed accusations against me with the Office of Congressional Ethics,” Nunes of California said Thursday in an emailed statement. “The charges are entirely false and politically motivated, and are being leveled just as the American people are beginning to learn the truth about the improper unmasking of the identities of U.S. citizens and other abuses of power.”

So Nunes confirms that he's under investigation.

I notice that you made no attempt to refute anything I said.

if that were true i'd be as happy as a clam

dems have a string of small PR victories...and they're at their lowest numbers in 100 years. republicans are just as bad OR republicans are fricking stupid for that to have happened.

Trump and co were surveilled for over a year. If there was anything to see, it would be out.

The fact Nunes is stepping aside means that there is really likely nothing here. If there was something to discover, you keep Nunes in place and make him do what you want. If there's nothing there, you move him aside so that when you announce there's nothing there, the story isn't Nunes.

IKR...I just watched it live. The only reason he stepped aside is b/c a radical group complained (likely put up to it by dems) and ANYone can file these at any time. Nunes is being replaced by a PROSECUTER....

So, let me get this straight, you are proud that the media and dems nagging to fire everyone--- is somewhat working out--- and you call that a win?

It is not a win in the longrun...

If you were survielled right now for 5 days, you could be set up to look like you are anything from six ways to Sunday, like they did Flynn. Yet, you somehow think in your fantasy land that Flynn is a KGB agent named Boris and KAC is Natasha.

If one smidgen of evidence was currently showing Trump is a KGB agent and or in bed with Vlad....

It would be done, breaking news impeachment hearings by now. The investigating of Trump and Russia is to appease ya'll so you STFU with your BS and salve your extreme butthurt.

It truly is sad, that there are still people who believe in "muh Russians".

I'm you still believe in the tooth fairy too.

Huge victory for the muh Russians faux-conspiracy, everyone!!!

Now that three fellow Republicans including Trey Gowdy of all people and a guy representing ULTRA right-wing West Texas are on the case, Trump is definitely going down!!!

I love the logic of the communists on this thread. Or rather, the complete lack thereof.

I don't think it means either.

I think it means Nunes ran around for a couple of weeks as the lackey of the WH (inappropriately), has been hit with bogus ethics complaints, and is in way over his head.

Even more incredible when you consider their party has the White House, and both houses of congress. They've never had more power, and are throwing it away in epic fashion.

No. Dude you need to watch the news. That is NOT what they are reporting. They are being clear to say this is not the case.

Yeah, EPIC!

Trey Gowdy and a guy representing one of the most right wing segments of America are definitely taking Trump down for his involvement with muh Russians!!!

So EPIC!

Dude, he lied about going to the white house. Refused to show anyone else the info, this is at least probable cause for an ethics investigation.

Remember the ethics committee has subpoena power. Spin if you want, but, THIS IS NOT GOOD FOR NUNES.

Not to mention the IRS was corrupt under Obama. If anything was in the Trumps tax returns, wouldn't the IRS know it? That would probably have been leaked if it was damaging.
