i m just saying, anderson if we re going to go down that road, you got to be playing fair play here with each side. again, nancy pelosi is not the one being investigated, the white house is. but she s the investigator and if she s not impartial, then there s a problem, right? but she s not on the committee. well, if you got the ranking member of her committee communicating with her and taking signals from her, and putting out statements in sync with her, then she is effectively on the committee. so is devin nunes talking to paul ryan? i m sure he is. i m sure he is. this between the house and the white house, this is pretty normal stuff, folks. shouldn t giving the evolving timeline of the intelligence he saw on white
room. ahead of this daily briefing. and this is something that mr. spicer is most certainly going to be asked about, peter, this report that s surfaced in the new york times it was two white house officials that actually helped give devin nunez the intelligence reports. what more do we know? yeah, craig, you re right. this scoop first coming from the new york times moments ago, what sean spicer will certainly be pressed on through the course of this news conference coming up right now. it s important because when chairman devin nunez came to the white house a week ago and met privately with these individuals in one of the secure compartmentalized locations here on the white house grounds, he then came back the next day to brief the president. all of this has raised questions about his impartiality, about his independence from the white house right now. sean spicer at this very podium just a matter of days ago said it didn t pass the smell test to think nunez would come here to th
devin nunes about what he wants to keep covered up. to many other questions, he s given general answers like this one. so you re not going to tell the committee who your source is? we never talk about sources of ethics. i wouldn t expect you to do that either. you guys are so infatuated with sources. there you go, that s the kind of general deflecting answer you re suppose to give when you re in the middle of a cover up, when you re trying to cover up who presented you some classified information that you then presented to the president, you just give general about never revealing sources when you re asked about that. when it is discovered the place you examine this classified information is somewhere on the white house grounds when you re asked how you entered the white house grounds, you don t jump up and down and say that s the most important thing of this whole thing, if you find out that you ll find out everything,
information on the white house grounds that he won t share, not just with democrats, but with his own committee. and i just don t know how to conduct a credible investigation if you have let alone one person but the chairman of the committee who is saying i have seen evidence but i won t share with anyone else. what are we to make of that? the problem is, this doesn t sound like a whistleborou know . the whistleblower would want democrats and republicans to see the evidence. instead we have on the white house grounds, a real cloud over the investigation. it isn t enough for us to go through the motions of the investigation, we need to do one credibly. i don t know how to do it credibly under the circumstances. for all practical circumstances, this open hearing with three witnesses, former officials during the obama administration, intelligence officials, and acting attorney general, that is not going to that is not taking place any time soon? we have asked the claire to
went before cameras to announce he had seen incidentally collected information on trump associates. the president felt he somewhat vindicated, even though he nev claimed the original tweets were accurate. he made that splashy appearance and met with the president without bothering to inform fellow members of the intelligence committee. nunes had gotten his information secretly on tuesday evening in what the ranking member dubbed his midnight run, even reportedly swapping cars and keeping his staff in the dark. it raised the question, who gave him information and where. well, now, nearly a week later, chairman nunes admits, he got that information on the white house grounds. in a statement spokesperson saying he met with his source on the white house grounds in order to have proximity to secure location where he could view the information provided by the source. hours ago, he said he reviewed the information in a secure facility on the white house
