He is a frightened man.

...I firmly believe he did his little midnight end-run to the White House because he saw HIS NAME in the covert intelligence surveillance, and realized the FBI/NSA/CIA probably has his ass on tape. Nunes* hasn't been making these unprecedented efforts to obscure and obfuscate the Mueller probe to protect tRump*... He's doing it TO PROTECT HIMSELF.

Original Reuters story:

of which he has an abundance

Nunes (R) perp walk soon

republican traitors deserve justice. lock them up.

and it isn't just thinking they aren't likely to win re-election due to a Blue-Wave or normal mid-term anti-incumbency. I think a lot of these GOPers don't want to be in Congress when all the dirty details come out. They don't want the responsibility of dealing with crimes of their own party/members.

Gowdy and Ryan walk away, take their pension, they go down in flames and take a conviction and a penalty could be loss of pension. (conjecture on my part)

Asking for a friend named Mueller.

jail the fucker
