A revelation from an associate of Rudy Giuliani — currently facing federal charges for campaign violations –that Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) has also been involved in attempts to dig up dirt on former Vice President Joe Biden in Ukraine completely undercut his diatribes delivered during the impeachment hearings, claimed a CNN contributor on Saturday morning.

Appearing in “New Day” with host Victor Blackwell, Huffington Post correspondent Kevin Robillard said Nunes’ motives when attacking witnesses now must be considered suspect.

“Start with [Giuliani associate] Lev Parnas saying, we’re hearing from his attorney, the accusation that he actually helped set up these meetings between the ranking Republican on House Intel, Devin Nunes and Viktor Shokin, this former prosecutor general in Ukraine,” Blackwell began. “If true, a big asterisk. Frame the significance.”

“It puts a significant dent in the Republican defense used this entire week,” Robillard explained. “If Devin Nunes is standing there saying this is a conspiracy theory, they’re waving out all of these ridiculous theories to try to get Trump. But it turns out Nunes was himself involved in what Trump was doing and knew about it.”

1. Fervently hoping the coming days sees emergence of even

more info leaks and data dumps from behind the scenes folks who put country over politics so these assholes all get nailed.

[2naSalit]

2. Never doubted it for a minute.

At least we are getting confirmation.

He'll lie, then go to prison with the others.

5. Now he's threatening to sue

Geez Devin, don't have a cow

[Perseus]

7. He is a mini-trump

trump always threatens to sue and mini-trump is doing the same. cowards both of them.

[paleotn]

11. Go right ahead. Sue.

I have far more respect for a crook when they know their busted, they accept punishment. These are just whining children. NO, I didn't get into the cookies mom!....while holding a half eaten cookie and crumbs all over their face.

[underpants]

6. Devastating

[Hav]

8. The height of irony

and hypocrisy, I think it was Nunes who asked whether it was appropriate for political parties to run operatives in foreign countries to dig up dirt on their opponents.
That is literally what he did. And he then has the audacity to ask this question yesterday after his story already broke. You cannot be this stupid.

[DEbluedude]

9. Griiiiinding Sloooowly...

[ancianita]

10. His ass should be kicked out of House Intel, & all his classified clearance cancelled permanently.

The horrible thing is that he has sat in the House Intel Comte. THAT pisses me the hell off.

He's been the lynchpin spy/obstructor between the Mafia Branch and Congress.

[FakeNoose]

12. Yes absolutely! I've been saying the same thing

How does this guy still have access to our intelligence and state secrets?

[ancianita]

14. How this guy gets votes from here on out will tell us a LOT about his district. And other

systems, for that matter.

[gademocrat7]

13. Moo nunes is a treasonous bastard.

[Bengus81]

15. drip,drip,drip

[BlueIdaho]

16. Nunes needs to testify under oath...

If true - this SOB should be removed from any and all relevant committee assignments.

[Alithea]

17. There had already been reports of Nunes traveling to Europe for dirt-digging,

but this now provides evidence and details.

Similar reports were saying that Barr undertook an investigative trip to meet with somebody in Italy. The recent revelations suggest there is fire under that smoke too.

What a goddam soap-opera. If this had been proposed as a move plot, it would have been rejected as too far-fetched about 30 episodes ago.

[erronis]

18. Gotta give the (r)epuglicons an "A"

for acting so well.

And an "F" for Fire Their Treasonous Asses!

[bluestarone]

19. Do what the rethugs are doing

Plaster the mother-fuckers picture all over the place behind the committee on the walls!!

[OKNancy]

20. Sorry - Locking

It looks like you spent some time doing this, but it's really a duplicate of: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10142399395
and should have been added to that thread.
Also, a note - when rawstory watches tv and then reports it as a news story, it's really an opinion of the talking head.
