House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., sent another letter Thursday — his third in a week — to two fellow GOP chairmen, referring to them 15 people connected to the Russia investigation for testimony in an "open setting."

Many of the individuals on the list, sent to House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., are tied to Hillary Clinton and the infamous Trump dossier, which contains compromising, yet unverified claims about President Trump's ties to Russia. Compiled in 2016, the research effort was conducted by ex-British spy Christopher Steele and was funded in part by Clinton's presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

Glenn Simpson and Thomas Catan, co-founders of Fusion GPS, the opposition research company that commissioned Steele, are included on the list. Also mentioned is Nellie Ohr, wife of Justice Department official Bruce Ohr, whom Republicans in the House Intelligence Committee alleged in a February memo "was employed by Fusion GPS to assist in the cultivation of opposition research on Trump." Ohr, who according to the GOP memo delivered his wife's research to the FBI, was demoted from his role as associate deputy attorney general late last year after it was discovered he had secret meetings with Simpson and Steele.

Dirty Sid .... that would be entertaining.

Not going to get my hopes up ANYMORE!

Dirty Sid is the reason grade school bullies can have a flourishing future if we plan on fixing Washington D.C.

While Hillary & Co just straight off kill people, I would enjoy repeated old fashioned a$$ whippings of the dirty little nasty critters of politics.

Y'know, I'VE been brought up on charges and I didn't get a preliminary hearing for anyone to hear what I had to say on the night of the 29th.

No MY story was told from the defendent's chair, under oath and the risk of going to prison unless I invoked the 5th.

Which nobody KNEW about in 1969, certainly not this 20 year old.

Y'wann'a know his story ?

INDICT THE SUMBITCH !

Agreed. If Strzok can tell them to piss off, anybody should be able to invoke the Strzok rule.

[Truth29]

Agree; it is becoming apparent that the Congress lacks the means or the will to actually compel testimony or even compliance with a subpoena. Any referral for prosecution goes to the DOJ and simply dies there if the DOJ considers itself not answerable to Congress or the President.

[eartick]

Yeah but you is We the People and not the elite that only let off smoke and arrange mirrors for the side show.

This is not under oath (which does not really matter anymore) so the elites will have so much wiggle room that absolutely NOTHING will happen

I thought Hillary arranged for Obama to give him immunity and Future Self-Pardoning Powers...
