She's not proficient in federal law but she didn't think it was illegal. Inappropriate and unethical but legal. She couldn't think of another time this has happened. How can Nunes think anyone will trust him to be honest in this investigation?

It is unclear why Nunes, who expressed grave concerns about leaks during Monday’s hearing, elected to hold a presser to share what he called “all classified information."

Getting “incidentally collected” is a direct function of who is on the other end of your phone call. If it's a foreign government representative, you're gonna get “incidentally collected.” If that's news to Nunes, too bad.

He may have compromised the entire investigation because he promised Trump he would keep him abreast of all information. He has fucked up beyond repair. Ryan will need to replace him immediately and remove him from receiving more intelligence. Trump will look for someone to fire. Guess who?
