From the Devin Nunes Intelligence Agency, we have theory 14 why Donald Trump should be immune from the rule of law. Remember, Nunes is the House intelligence committee chair who got involved with Mike Flynns effort to surveil and disrupt the Russia investigation in the first days and weeks of the Trump presidency. Nunes was bounced from running the House Russia probe in part because of that. But now hes back, largely in the form of mounting a counter-probe, a probe into alleged bias in the probe itself. To that end, he has subpoenaed a man named David Kramer, who played a role in Sen. John McCains bringing a copy of the Steele dossier to then-FBI Director James Comey in late 2016. (Comey already had a copy.) This is all prologue to a new, or newly refined theory: the Steele dossier was not a perhaps imperfect guide to Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 election. It was the interference itself.
Byron York approvingly lays out the theory in a new column here in The Washington Examiner.

Das be danya, Comrade Nunes*.

(15,682 posts)(before moving to California with my father) was my Russian grandparent's. My father complained of the house always smelling like soup which, of course, was soup or something my grandmother had made with cabbage.
I didn't understand what he was talking about until one night just a few years ago when I left an almost empty pot of corned beef and cabbage out over night. The smell, oh the smell.

(40,234 posts)He is behaving like a man on the verge of a nervous breakdown. His behavior has been erratic. My theory is that there is information about him and Russia that he knows Mueller is going to or may have already discovered.

Also Giuliani, who suddenly has swallowed his tongue, when he previously could not shut his mouth. He is on the list as well.
