Breaking News: Two White House officials helped provide intelligence reports about surveillance to the Republican leading the House Russia inquiry

A pair of White House officials played a role in providing Representative Devin Nunes of California, the Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, with the intelligence reports that showed President Trump and his associates were incidentally swept up in foreign surveillance by American spy agencies.

The revelation that White House officials assisted in the disclosure of the intelligence reports — which Mr. Nunes then discussed with President Trump — is likely to fuel criticism that the intelligence chairman has been too eager to do the bidding of the Trump administration while his committee is supposed to be conducting an independent investigation of Russia’s meddling in the last presidential election.

Ny times? Fake news. Same clowns who printed Trump was under surveillance during the campaign trail and transition, now claim he wasn't. Where's the beef?

I think it's important to also address the Senate findings that Russia did in fact plant fake news to rig our election. It turned out the way we all wanted but we can't pretend those commies aren't messing with us!

3:25 careful to fall into the trap set before you. Distinguishing everything as "fake news" just because its bad news is not right.

Ny times claimed trump and his team were under surveillance for many months before being elected. Now, ny times claims trump wasn't. Which is it?

It's also important to remind everyone that the FBI, CIA, and NSA closed their investigations due to the lack of evidence against trump.

The Russians didn't rig the election.

The Ruskies didn't rig the election, they simply stole it, fair & square.

Democrats are terrified their mole will be discovered by Devin Nunes.

Rep. Nunes deserves accolades.

He knew any discussion with his committee would result in Democrat members immediately leaking the information despite its classified nature.

He felt Mr. Trump deserved the courtesy of hearing about the situation first; I feel the same way. His briefing of the President didn't alter the facts which were that employees of various agencies recorded calls with American citizens who were not subjects of investigations, and then disclosed their names, clearly understanding that action would be unfavorable to them, as well as illegal.

Find them; fire them; try them; jail them.

So is it okay for Obama to review the investigation into Clinton before the house committee get information?

Remember when Obama was on 60 minutes and said there was nothing top secret on Hillary's server?

By reporting felony crimes committed by all democrats involved!! Giving the questions before the debate? Clinton using a unprotected server for TOP SECRET information causing the fall of American embassy and Americans to die. PAY FOR PLAY. selling URANIUM to the PUTEN MONSTER. owning electric company with PUTEN. The list goes on and on. The biggest exposure of a criminal lying empire in American history. And it's getting traction again.
