Devin Nunes Threatens To Impeach DOJ's Rod Rosenstein And FBI's Chris Wray [View all]

The top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee says he is prepared to impeach the head of the FBI and Deputy Attorney General if he doesn’t get a two-page document he says prompted the Russia investigation.

“Just the fact that they're not giving this to us tells me there's something wrong here,” California Republican Representative Devin Nunes told Fox News host Laura Ingraham on the The Ingraham Angle Tuesday night.

“I can tell you that we're not just going to hold in contempt, we will have a plan to hold in contempt and to impeach,” Nunes told Ingraham, who asked what his committee would do to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein if they don’t bow to his demand.

The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee has been seeking an unredacted version of the document, which marked the beginning and formal basis of the FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign on allegations it aided Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.

As much as I'd like to see Nunes get F'd on this, I'm not clear what authority the FBI and DOJ hughee99 Apr 2018 #27

Maybe because there is ongoing counterintelligence and obstruction investigation wishstar Apr 2018 #30

That would seem like a decent reason, but they have not asserted that is the case as far as I know. hughee99 Apr 2018 #32

That may have been true in the past True Blue American Apr 2018 #41

And despite all of that, he is still on this committee that has oversight. hughee99 Apr 2018 #44

I tend to agree. If they haven't already, the Gang of Eight should be allowed to see it ... mr_lebowski Apr 2018 #51

I don't think anyone outside the DOJ and FBI has seen it. That's my concern. hughee99 Apr 2018 #53

Makes me wonder what they might know about him to GreenPartyVoter Apr 2018 #31

It would be nice if Mueller could tie Nunes up tightly with avebury Apr 2018 #33

That would be nice, but in general, if an agency doesn't trust the people with oversight authority, hughee99 Apr 2018 #34

And if it could be proven that the requesting person is part of an ongoing criminal avebury Apr 2018 #47

If it could be proven that the requesting person is part of an ongoing criminal enterprise hughee99 Apr 2018 #48

Because its Trump who has reached the boiling point. Historic NY Apr 2018 #36

Yes, and Nunes has already seen the redacted version. He's asking for the unredacted version, and hughee99 Apr 2018 #37

I suspect it has more to do ... Whiskeytide Apr 2018 #45

I suspect you're probably right about that, but unfortunately I'm not sure it's within their rights hughee99 Apr 2018 #46

Nunes should be careful what he wishes for! I say release it; likely damning as hell! 4139 Apr 2018 #35
