Brad Wenstrup (R-OH) demands all "insults" to Nunes be "redacted" from Democratic response memo



https://www.rawstory.com/2018/02/gop-lawmaker-demands-insults-devin-nunes-redacted-democratic-response-memo/

During an interview with Wenstrup, Fox News host Brian Kilmeade wondered if President Donald Trump would release the Democratic memo without any further redactions as he had done for the Republican memo.

“I think it needs to be vetted,” Wenstrup opined. “I can tell you, the [Democratic memo] we voted on to move forward to the White House certainly needs vetting and a lot of redaction of things that would compromise methods. And also, there’s personal insults and attacks.”

When pressed for details, the congressman replied: “There’s some people — Republicans — named and I don’t think that was appropriate.”

“So they went after Chairman Nunes?” Kilmeade asked.

“Yeah, I think that we will see that that they went after a couple of key figures on the Intelligence Committee personally,” Wenstrup revealed.

Close to home example of gerrymandering's negative impact on representation.

as long as they don't reference Nunes or the contents of the memo?

Yeah, that'll work.
