Let's Hear It For---

       I'm beginning to really like Rep. Devin Nunes. He's turning out to be the kind of guy you can easily make fun of. I mean, here's a guy who has a very important job as chairman of the House Intelligence committee. He starts out on an investigation into the Russian attempts to influence our presidential election. Hey, you can't get more serious than that.
       But then the fun begins. Nunes goes to the White house and gets to see some highly classified information. In fact its so classified that he cant even see it in the Congressional safe room. Anyway, the next thing he does is hold a media announcement. Then he goes to the President to tell, either him or top aids, about this secret information. Then Nunes publicly states that maybe he shouldn't have said anything. Understand he still hasn't told the rest of the Intel. committee.
       Then we find out that the people who gave him the briefing on the secret material actually work for the President. Oh, and I forgot to mention that he worked for the President's transition team and is now in charge of the committee that is investigating the possible involvement of some in Trump's administration.
       So now its been decided that the ranking Democrat on the committee should see this secret information that pretty much everybody seems to know all about. Then maybe they'll arrange to have the whole committee see it. In the meantime Nunes has canceled all other hearings for the time being. Did I mention he was on Trump's transition team? So basically nothing is being done as far as any investigation is concerned, by the House Intel Committee, which is probably just fine with the President. If we wait long enough you can be sure some other train wreck will take place to nudge the Russia/Trump story out of the news.
