Should Paul Ryan replace Devin Nunes on the House Intel Committee?

Perhaps they should investigate with the people they have without Nunes?

Why does there have to be an advantage of a seat on the Committee? They can do their job without Nunes, I would think?

Paul Ryan should show some leadership and make a decision about Nunes.

now that Trump hung him out to dry on the ACA repeal; if so, maybe he could be persuaded to replace him as chairman. But Adam Schiff said if Nunes were to be replaced they'd want to know first who his replacement would be because there are some on the intelligence committee who are worse (the replacement would have to be a current member of the committee).

On first reading, I thought you were saying Paul Ryan should make himself the chair.

Put himself on the Intel Committee. Just do his job, is all the people ask.
