Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) said during an interview early Wednesday that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes's (R-Calif.) behavior has been “aggressive” and “unusual” in recent days.
“A lot of us have a lot of history with Chairman Nunes and consider him a friend, but until we really get a read into whatever drove last week’s behavior, it’s really hard for us, along with the rest of the American public, not to make some assumptions about what is driving this very strange behavior,” Himes said on CNN’s “New Day.”
Himes, a House Intelligence Committee member, added that the panel’s functions have stalled since Nunes said there was incidental intelligence surveillance of President Trump’s transition team last week.
“We’ve just been completely frozen,” he told host Alisyn Camerota. "There’s been no communication. We need to understand exactly what happened. We need to be made comfortable. “When you cancel all the ordinary business meetings of the committee, it’s kind of up to the individual who does that to say, ‘Here’s why I did that.' And we haven’t been offered that explanation yet.”
