(2,150 posts)does not absolve him for what he did. He is not trustworthy nor impartial, and he should be kicked off the committee right now.

(12,882 posts)LOL... for today anyway! Nunes would pimp his mom if it meant him keeping his free health care, big Ag money ride. Hailing from one of the poorest counties in California, you might expect to see slums and street people everywhere. Not so. It's MEGA-dairy operations and nut tree groves as far as the eye can see. The median income is low because so much of the labor force here is undocumented. Ol' Man-of-the-people, Devin, is doing OK back home. Dairy, Almonds, wineries - he'll do just fine if the current shitstorm should soil his suit. Nunes - held high on BIG AG money from this parched plot - is expected to keep pressing the case for more and MORE water to keep almond trees and wine grapes happy. He's also a hired bullhorn for blaming shortages as well as plagues of water on the Democrats. Democrats were guilty of creating the recent drought and guilty of engineering the recent floods in this region. God would be PROUD to claim the powers that the likes of Nunes appoints the Dems with. Nunes himself, is every bit the apparition he appears to be - a wispy, monotone-voiced illusion propped up with the money that ought to be in the pockets of the labor he gets wealthy off of. His sprint to the executive manor to give his boss a heads up is not a real surprise. He likely didn't have as much trouble finding the White House as he did finding his own district during the last break. Maybe we should send Nunes some maps.

(5,813 posts)He over reacted and did something unforgivable and that disqualified him for his position. His maturity was at the level of the 4th grade snitch who couldn't wait to rat out his fellow classmates to get in good with teacher. So he needs to apologize again ....this time to US, the American people for breaking the trust agreement that he would be fair and ethical in chairing this committee. Then he needs to go. Buh-bye. Don't let the screen door hit you in the fanny.
