Nunes: ‘It’s Maybe Time’ to Shut Intel Agencies Down Given Abuses in Russia Investigation

These agencies are irrevocably broken. The Obama administration corrupted and weaponized these once-respected institutions — their tactics resemble those of despots and dictators.

Nunes: ‘It’s Maybe Time’ to Shut Intel Agencies Down Given Abuses in Russia Investigation

During an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), the ranking Republican member on the House Intelligence Committee, sounded off about his frustrations regarding efforts to ascertain answers regarding the investigation into allegations of collusion between Russia and the Trump presidential campaign.

By Breitbart News, October 8, 2020:

Story continues below advertisement

The investigation that goes back to 2016 has been a hot-button political topic over the last several years. Nunes said if evidence being withheld by the Department of Justice, the FBI and other intelligence agencies continues not to be forthcoming, the possibility of shutting those agencies down should be a consideration.

BARTIROMO: So, first, evaluate the Jim Comey testimony that we saw in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee this past week.

NUNES: Well, you know, on certain day, James Comey has an intelligence level higher than Einstein. He seems to know everything. He takes immaculate notes. He even takes those classified notes home and shares them with a lawyer. Somehow, those notes end up in The New York Times.

But then, other times, like you would think when you have actually opened an investigation into the Trump campaign and Russia, he seems to have amnesia. He’s forgotten everything.

And, look, I will just make this point. We asked him specifically and all the other dirty cops at DOJ and FBI and the intelligence agencies, in January of early 2017, where did this dirt come from? None of them seem to know the answer.

And you know what, Maria? Every damn person in that room knew the answer, except for the Republicans. That’s the truth.

BARTIROMO: Unbelievable.

Well, we want to talk more about this. I want to point out this op-ed that Kim Strassel from The Wall Street Journal wrote last week. And it’s called “The James Comey Election.”

And, in it, she writes: “Mr. Comey personifies what enrages Americans after they have gone through three-and-a-half years of this collusion narrative.” She says: “This was the crew that, in 2016, based on the thinnest of tips, launched a counterintelligence investigation into a presidential campaign, complete with secret surveillance warrants and informants.”

She goes on to say: “These — this all took place in Barack Obama and Joe Biden’s Washington. Those eight years also featured plenty of other swamp monsters. Don’t underestimate the number of Americans who fear a return to that world, Lois Lerner harassing conservative nonprofits, supervisors at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives losing guns in Fast and Furious, the EPA minions who burn companies with ever-changing rules.”

And the list goes on. This is why she’s calling this the James Comey election.

Will the American people understand what took place under Joe Biden and Barack Obama’s watch and this plan to take down a candidate and then a sitting president, Congressman?

IMHO, I believe there is no other course of action to take.

AT LEAST it has to have the senior staff fired, and the rest moved to a neutral zone. D.C. is far too corrupt and commie-filled to ever be useful for the country as a whole.

OH BOY! “Nunes: ‘It’s Maybe Time’ to Shut Intel Agencies Down”
Everyone thought I was nuts when I wrote about shutting down the FBI 100% a few years ago. They said it couldn’t be done, it was not justified, etc. But it certainly can be done, with regional bureaus of investigation, modeled on the state bureaus that are already out there. Federal coordinating headquarters can be in Tulsa, Oklahoma, or some other deep red state, where the rule of law and conformance to the Constitution actually works.
Situating an Intel agency in D.C., where 94% voted for Hillary, is just stupid. Of course they will be biased, no matter what we do.

In January of 2019, there was a Republican controlled House, Senate, and Oval Office.

Not a single bloody thing was done.

What branch of government controls the DOJ (FBI is under the DOJ)?

Who appointed the past (almost) four years of AGs?

Nothing will ever be done.

The CIA should be relocated to an Iowa corn field. If the spies don’t like corn, they can quit. With 94% of D.C. voting for Hillary, the spies located in D.C. or Reston Virginia, will NEVER conform to the Constitution. Hillary never did that, so why would they do it?

Ach: So this is a true story: I used to blog on a joint website, where conservative values were discussed. Like I do now. But I was a webmaster there, and I could see where the traffic was coming from. I kid you not, 25% of all the website visits were from Reston Virginia, where a lot of of Intel headquarters are! Spies were my biggest single customer!

And some stuff I posted got enormous traffic. A shower head pic about personal hygiene got huge interest and re-visits, because “fascist showers” or something. A look at Texas WWII POW camps for Germans got enormous visits. I was marveling at the efficiency and humanity with which they were built and operated, but the Reston spies thought I wanted “camps”.

And Geller Report almost certainly gets many spy visits, from dumb Democrat spies who think we are ‘subversive’.

I’m sure those spies spend many millions in spy salaries, surfing conservative websites, worrying about shower heads and stuff. Some are reading this right now.

When Wray just recently spoke to Congress about “dangerous right wing extremists” he was partly referring to a blogger named Achmed Mohandjob, living in Ohio, at such and such address, and owning a corn field in Iowa, where he may be planning a nuke farm.

You may recall when, back in the seventies, the government was scrapping many, if not most, of their missile siloes that were located in Nebraska.

I have 120 acres worth of them. Next phase is to arm them with the appropriate warheads.

Somewhat related, Trump is the first president in a long time that even mentions farmers. Who would think a billionaire businessman from NYC would care? He has done very well for agriculture, much more than any other president in the last 30 years.

Who appointed the Director of the CIA (Haspel)?

Counter intelligence alone should be reason enough. Other countries aren’t going to shut their agencies down. Perhaps reduce the different agencies into two branches, intelligence and law enforcement. And that after massive prosecution of the criminals in them…

I haven’t trust the Fecal Bureau of Islamisation since their “investigation” of the Las Vegas shooter and the fact the scumbag:
1. married a muslimah
2. traveled to muslum states shortly before his terrorist attack
Then there’s the little fact of the Fecal Bureau of Islamisation’s evident facilitation of the Garland, TX, muslum terrorist attack on an art show in keeping with the 0madhi’s statement at the UN that: “the future must no belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam…”

We’re in a multifaceted, multi-dimensional war. China has 5G, bio & nuclear weapons, largest navy in the world & second largest economy. They want to be number one. Our deep state & other deep states are complicit. Our president wrote The Art of the Deal, they wrote The Art of War

These are the same bunch of fascist/communist that will try and steal the upcoming election by any means possible. If trump doesn’t win by a sizable majority these same globalist conspirators will use ever tactic they can dream of to get their puppet Biden/Harris elected. Mark my words Biden will step down 1/2 way through and Harris the socialist communist radical will take control of the POTUS chair more than she already does. The globalist wanted her in the race from the beginning but could sell her to the moderate Democrats.

You’re an optimist if you think Biden will last two years, or anything close.
Pelosi, in her drunken stupor, is mumbling about the 25th Amendment and future presidents. I interpret this as a signal that the Deep State intends to use Biden to get elected and then see that he is removed at the first pretext.
