Devin Nunes says he plans to release transcripts and documents for some 70 witnesses from the House Intel Russia probe, something Schiff has been requesting. “I think they need to be published before the election,” Nunes said on Fox

You're not wrong. And that would matter if we lived in a world in which Republicans had any ethics.

Devin Nunes says House Intel will release Russia investigation deposition docs

House Intelligence Committee Devin Nunes, R-Calif., said Sunday his panel will move to have all of the documents related to witness interviews conducted as part of its Russia investigation released to the public before the 2018 midterm elections.

During an interview on Fox News, Nunes said "full transparency is in order."

"If you look at a lot of the facts that are now out it's the facts that are now out, it's what we found on the House Intelligence Committee," Nunes said on "Sunday Morning Futures." "So we believe that the depositions that we took I think for nearly about 70 people those need to be published and they need to be published I think before the election published -- I mean put out for the American people to review so that they can see the work that we did and they can see all of the people that were interviewed by us and their answers to those questions."


He added that the American public can expect to see what witnesses testified in "the next few weeks."

Nunes did concede, however, that approximately a quarter of the interviews might be classified and would need to be approved for release by the director of national intelligence to declassify them. He expressed hope that this process would only take "a matter of days and they don't do their normal foot dragging where they slow roll and we don't get these before the election."

Rep. Mike Conaway, R-Texas, took over the House Intelligence Committee's Russia inquiry last April after Nunes stepped aside amid concerns that he mishandled classified information. Nunes was cleared by the Ethics Committee in December.

Nunes also said President Trump "doesn't have any choice" but to declassify documents related to the origins of the Russia investigation and the probe into Hillary Clinton's emails before the midterm elections.

If this stunt turns out the way his last one did, it will be a laughable. He has to do it before the midterms because after that he’s done.

And yes - he is supposedly recused.

Question: Comrade, did you have any communication with the Mother Country at any time during the carefully plotted campaign collusion of the Cretin in the 2016 election?

Answer: Nyet! Nyet! A thousand times Nyet!

(Cretin supporters: see???? No collusion. It’s a Witch Hunt. MAGA MAGA MAGA!!!)

When Republicans scream “full transparency” you can be assured you are standing smack in front of Alice’s Looking Glass.

Question: Did you have any communication with Russia at any time during the 2016 election?

Answer: Well there were those five times --------- redacted ---------- I never communicated directly with Putin.

Rs gleefully scream, "See! You see it's right there in black and white! There were five times he never communicated directly with Putin!"

His political backers in California needed someone like him, a guy who wouldn't smell their shit even when he was up to his neck in it.
