So in the end, what happens to Nunes?

Does he get voted out in November, go on to host some late night hate radio show like Ollie North, and generally fade into oblivion? Does he get convicted of crimes against his country and go to federal prison? Does he get a Trump pardon? Does he die under suspicious circumstances when the Russians decide he's no longer of value? Does he successfully save Trump from his misdeeds and go down in history as a key player in the creation of an American monarchy?

Whatever happens to that weasle-y little shithead I hope it hurts. Interested to see what others think!

I'm for it, whatever it is. I'd like to see him paraded through the streets of Sacramento with people flinging dung at him, but that's not likely to happen--sort of like Cersei's Walk of Shame in Game of Thrones, only longer plus I don't want to see him naked.

2. Makes me wonder. If someone is convicted of treason is that conviction pardonable? I doubt it.

Not saying that is what will happen, but it is in play as much as anything at the moment.

Go after their I’ll gotton gains. They all think they got it made from acquired millions selling our country out. If nothing else they didn’t pay taxes.

But maybe, just maybe, all his BAD publicity may hurt him. His opponent seems like a really good candidate and the local newspaper had an editorial ripping him a new one, (they called him "Trump's Stooge".)

I've sent a little money (twice) to Andrew Janz and will do so again on payday.

do it quickly. Because if the DoJ can scrape up charges he'll be wearing orange for a while and it might make him more popular at the Fed Pokey.

fades into oblivion when he can't use his position to shill, and reaches out to fox (or a local radio deal) to try to re-find some sort of spotlike (Like Chavez). But he has no charisma, no talent, and is more likely to do back-water level talk radio than to become a rw media star.

Oh - maybe he will try to run for higher office in California - but likely never even makes it through a primary.
