Nunes claims there's no evidence Papadopoulos ever met Trump despite photo
Source: The Hill
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) in a Monday morning interview said there is no evidence former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos met with President Trump, despite a widely disseminated photo of the two sitting around the same table for a meeting.
If Papadopoulos was such a major figure, you had nothing on him, you know, the guy lied, Nunes told Fox & Friends. As far as we can tell, Papadopoulos never even knew who never even had met with the president.

Nuness comment comes after the House Intelligence Committee last week released a controversial memo that accuses the Justice Department of abusing its surveillance powers. That memo names Papadopoulos, who pleaded guilty last year to lying to the FBI, as the individual who triggered the FBIs opening of a counterintelligence probe in July of 2016.
Look, getting drunk in London and talking to diplomats, saying that you dont like Hillary Clinton I think its kind of scary that our intelligence agencies would take that and use it against [an] American citizen, Nunes added during his interview with Fox & Friends.

(22,176 posts)More than likely, Mueller has got multiple sources of evidence collaborating each other...Nunes is undermining or trying to undermine the Mueller investigation. In any event, Papadopoulos... did plea guilty to LYING.
I don't understand Nunes' take on this ... there are multiple people sitting at that table...wouldn't you think Mueller / others would also see this?
Idiot...

(30,613 posts)Nunes may have already received his Mueller invitation. He obviously knows Mueller is about to take him down for obstruction, and probably for accepting bales of NRA Roubles. He's so out of his mind with fear that he can't think straight at all.

(22,674 posts)No, that' never happens. As proof, the covefefe boy just sat down at the table because they had a seat available.
Trump looks as bored as a five yr old on a two hour shopping trip with Aunt Susie. I doubt trump said 10 words that whole meeting. Its truly pathetic.

(1,142 posts)The KGOP refuses to look at any evidence of Russian collusion, or influence over Trump or his campaign just so that they can continue to say that they haven't seen any evidence.
It's really that simple, if they refuse to acknowledge or admit that there is evidence they can continue to deny that it exists simply because they don't want to know and will not look at it or even consider anything other than what their made up minds tell them and then they can repeat their mantra, we haven't seen any evidence
