This was all about one tweet that the jerk saw on Inforwars. A complete imbecile controlling an entire government.

I'm confused and don't really understand what the significance is here about Nunes being on the grounds of the WH day before he reveals info to Trump.

I heard something about him being in a car. Leaving the car and taking a Uber. People not knowing his wareabouts for a period of time. Then he meets with Trump. Trump feels somewhat vindicated. I know that this has to do with his tweet about Obama wiretapping him.

Nunes was part of the Trump transition team. Is he involved with this Russian collusion thing himself. And as head of the House Intelligence Committee that is like the fox guarding the henhouse.

Will somebody walk me through this?

5. Nunes and the WH are running scared

0) Background: Nunes attended meeting at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington DC with Flynn and Turkey officials where kidnapping the religious figure Erdogan wants to bury in jail.

1) Nunes went to see some intelligence on his own at a secure room on the WH grounds without notifying his committee.

2) Nunes gets a message on his pocket computer while in the car. Jumps out, takes Uber. Staff are out of contact till the next day.

3) The next day, Nunes runs over to Paul Ryan (!) and consults (probably revealing the intelligence).

4) He then runs over to the WH and informs the organization targeted by the investigation: Donald Trump's administration. Дональд Трамп (Donald Trump) is included in the briefing.

5) To this day, Nunes has not briefed his Intelligence Committee.

6) Nunes talks to the press after being called out on it by Democrats. Says he made a "judgement call".

7) Nunes later says he "regrets" his actions, but still won't share with the relevant members.

8) Nunes cancels previously scheduled public hearings for which written testimony has already been submitted.

9) Nunes reschedules them as secret hearings.

10) WH fires Ephsteyn on Saturday. Unusual timing and unusual rush and unusual protocol (no opportunity to resign).

Conclusion:

A) Nunes is involved up to his neck in the coverup and the water is rising, i.e. his predicament keeps getting worse.

B) Ryan is involved, at least in the coverup and maybe the original crimes.

C) The WH is running very scared. They know what they did.

Your #2 says Nunes gets a message on his pocket computer while in the car. Jumps out, takes Uber. Staff out of contact till the next day.

The Question:

Is there any way to track Uber. Find the driver and then find out the location that the Uber dirver took Nunes?
