18. Are we even sure that Nunes saw ANYTHING at all?

This whole episode was bad theater; an attempt to deflect attention and control the narrative. It's not about Russia, it's about the leaks; it's not about Russia, it's about Obama.

Every moment we spend dwelling on the "substance" of this subterfuge, the more our focus diffuses and our concentration wanes.

Schiff said as much yesterday. There is no smoking gun at the White House. Just a bunch of criminals attempting to hide their spoor by pissing on every trail within 100 miles.
