Nunes sees no intel for FBI probe on Trump campaign-Russia collusion

House Intelligent Committee Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes received and reviewed "electronic communication" documents by the FBI and Justice Department regarding the possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia over the 2016 presidential election.

Nunes (R-Calif.) cited the Five Eyes agreement to determine that no intelligence information was used in the investigation. The agreement is between the U.S., Canada, U.K. Australia and New Zealand--they make up the "Five Eyes" or nations that share intel in a closely trusted fashion than in other partnerships, due to years of trust and common language.

"We are not supposed to spy on each other's citizens, and it's worked well," Nunes said. "And it continues to work well. And we know it's working well because there was no intelligence that passed through the Five Eyes channels to our government. And that's why we had to see that original communication."

So if that's the case, what exactly sparked the Trump campaign-Russia investigation if not the Steele dossier?

Susan Rice pulls a "Master Sergeant Schultz"

Former National Security Adviser and abject liar Susan Rice appeared on CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS" Sunday. 

Zakaria, a known plagiarist, interviewed Rice. She denied claims that she was the one who unmasked Americans in order to embarrass Trump campaign officials who were incidentally surveilled in the Russian collusion investigation.

She told the far left-leaning plagiarist that she never did anything "untoward with respect to the intelligence" she received on the Trump campaign, which defies her original story where she denied knowing anything whatsoever about the "incidental collection of intelligence" on Trump transition officials.

The "Adviser Liar" told Judy Woodruff, PBS NewsHour host in March, "I know nothing about this" and "I was surprised to see reports from Chairman Nunes on that account today."

But now she admits she got the information but didn't do anything with it.

Of course not--she never lies very--much.

"I think now we've had subsequently members of Congress on the intelligence committees on both sides of the aisle take a look at the information that apparently was the basis for Chairman Nunes' concern, and say publicly that they didn't see anything that was unusual or untoward," Rice contended, likely referring to anonymous House and Senate sources who claimed she did nothing wrong.

"I did my job, which was to protect the American people, and I did it faithfully and to the best of my ability, and never did I do anything that was untoward and with respect to the intelligence I received," she lied.

The problem is, her job was not to protect the American people nor conduct investigations in the way she claims--that's for the FBI, NSA and CIA to do. 

She might consider changing her name to Master Sergeant Schultz.
