Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) on Tuesday said House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) has the "full confidence of the Republican conference," though one GOP lawmaker has already called for Nunes to recuse himself from investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election.
"Devin Nunes is a man of high integrity," Chaffetz, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, said on MSNBC. "He's done a great job chairing a very difficult committee, has the full confidence of the Republican conference, the Republican leadership and myself and Trey Gowdy and a host of others."
In fact, Rep. Walter Jones (R-NC) on Tuesday became the first Republican lawmaker to call for Nunes to recuse himself from the investigation.
Absolutely, Jones told the Hill when asked if Nunes should step down. "How can you be chairman of a major committee and do all these things behind the scenes and keep your credibility? You cant keep your credibility!"

(5,191 posts)The GOP reminds me of a frat house who will defend their "brother", even when he commits a horrible crime. Knowledge of a crime and lying about is indefensible.
