Nunes’ unrelenting and unfruitful witch hunt. But for whom?
Seriously, what do the Mercer’s, Trump or the Russians have Nunes?
- All Nunes did was invest $50k into his friends winery that does business with Russia. Alpha Omega Winery LLC. Maybe it’s just me but Alpha is alt-right slang.
- All Nunes did was help his long time friend Mike Flynn to deport a Turkish man in exchange for $15 million to Turkey’s dictator BEFORE Trump was sworn in. Flynn was doing work on for Turkey and Russia.
- All Nunes did was work on the Trump campaign from the beginning, finally joining Trump’s transition team. He even discussed becoming the Director of National Intelligence. #RebekahMercer
- All Nunes did was become a target of the Mueller investigation
“Steele was an MI6 agent until a decade ago, and GCHQ, the United Kingdom’s equivalent of the National Security Agency, was the first foreign-intelligence agency to pick up contacts between Trump associates and Russian agents in 2015, according to The Guardian.”
According to two people familiar with his trip across the pond who requested anonymity to discuss the chairman’s travels, Devin Nunes, a California Republican, was investigating, among other things, Steele’s own service record and whether British authorities had known about his repeated contact with a U.S. Justice Department official named Bruce Ohr. To that end, Nunes requested meetings with the heads of three different British agencies—MI5, MI6, and the Government Communications Headquarters, or GCHQ.
But those meetings did not pan out—Nunes came away meeting only with the U.K.’s deputy national-security adviser, Madeleine Alessandri. The people familiar with his trip told me that officials at MI6, MI5, and GCHQ were wary of entertaining Nunes out of fear that he was “trying to stir up a controversy.”
Trump Top Secret
“Last summer, two of Nunes’s staffers, Kash Patel and Doug Presley, traveled to London—without the knowledge of the U.S. Embassy or British government—in search of Steele, whose lawyer denied the staffers access to his client.”
This time, Nunes sought a work-around, I’m told. His trip to London at such a precarious moment for the president, and the intelligence agencies’ decision to decline him a meeting, is emblematic of the political island on which Nunes finds himself—along with a handful of other Trump allies in Congress and the media—as he continues his search for wrongdoing by the Justice Department.
