“If [Attorney General Jeff] Sessions won’t unrecuse and Mueller won’t clear the president, we’re the only ones,” Nunes, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said at a private fundraiser July 30, NBC News reported Wednesday.

he wouldn’t need to be protected from them if he would just fire them
What a great patriot Nunes is ! Schools should be named in his honor.
maybe the reason PDJT hasn’t fired them .. is because their witch-hunt is boosting GOP fundraising?
(you know, “follow the money” ...???)

Why is Hillary walking free? Why no investigations against Democrats illegalities? Why is the Clinton Foundation ignored? Why do Democrats get ignored for their misdeeds? Equal justice my rear-end. Hillary and Comey, to name two, should be behind bars but Republicans will let them skate away.
47% of the American public expect there is a smart phone with a recording app activated in the audience.
resign Mueller, Rosenstein.
indict Ohr.
They’ll flee to Saudi Arabia or one of the “stans” if they see the writing on the wall.
Nunez needs to be discredited in a major way because he is bustin out bad stuff about the witchhunt. Their playbook is so, so predictable.
Public speech in a public place, in front of many people, and his comments are recorded. What’s so secret about that?
