Devin Nunes: A Running Timeline of His Surveillance Claims and White House Ties
Wired, April 12, 2017
EXCERPT...
Wednesday evening, March 22: Senator John McCain (R-Arizona), in an MSNBC interview, calls for a select committee to investigate Russia, saying that no longer does the Congress have credibility to handle this alone.
Thursday morning, March 23: Nunes apologizes to his Intelligence Committee colleagues in a generic way, according to representative Jackie Speier (D-California), a fellow committee member. Nunes also tells the committee that theyll see the documents on Friday. (This does not happen.)
Thursday afternoon, March 23: A Nunes spokesperson clarifies that Nunes does not know for sure whether Trump or his associates were on the phone calls that were being surveilled or whether they were just mentioned in conversations between two or more foreign nationals.
Thursday night, March 23: Appearing on Hannity on Fox News, Nunes explains his rationale for briefing Trump on sensitive information: "I felt like I had a duty and obligation to tell him, because, as you know, hes taking a lot of heat in the news media," Nunes said. "I think to some degree there are some things he should look at to see whether, in fact, he thinks the collection was proper or not."
