Nunes says IG report provides evidence of a conspiracy against the President
Washington Examiner:
Rep. Devin Nunes called the Justice Department inspector general's report on former FBI Director James Comey a "building block" for a criminal referral he delivered to the agency.They need to take another look at a conspiracy charge against Comey and others who participated in the coup attempt against the President.
"For a long time I have very been hesitant to get too far out in front on the IG's capabilities. I believe what today is, is another example — it's a building block. It's important information," the California Republican said Thursday evening on Fox News.
Specifically, he said, Horowitz's findings contain "very important pieces of evidence that would build into the conspiracy complaint that we have sent to the Department of Justice."
Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, appeared on Sean Hannity's show, along with fellow Reps. Mark Meadows and John Ratcliffe, to react to Inspector General Michael Horowitz's 83-page scathing report on Comey released earlier in the day.
The watchdog found that Comey "violated" bureau policy in his handling of his memos about his conversations with President Trump, but determined the former FBI director did not leak classified information to the media. Horowitz criminally referred Comey to the Justice Department for his conduct, but the agency declined to prosecute.
