Remember this: Comey gave Two Briefings on Capitol Hill and Nunes wasn't in one of them [View all]

Nunes has denied there was collusion with the Russians, but he may not know or have been briefed.

There may be a reason for that. The whole post is worth a read, but I've snipped part of it. Here is a post from DailyKos.

Although it would appear that both groups were seeking much the same information, from the two radically different responses it is evident that the content of those briefings were not the same. What may have made the difference is who Comey was addressing in each briefing. He trusted those in the Senate briefing with highly confidential information but the same cannot be said for the briefing given to Nunes and Schiff.

If there was someone in that House briefing that Comey didn’t trust, it was Devin Nunes. The circumstantial evidence against Nunes is certainly piling up:

*He was on Trump’s transition team which was chockablock with Russiaphiles

*As chairman of the House Intel Committee, he initially refused to investigate Trump-Russia but focussed instead on White House and agency leakers

*As directed by the White House, he told media contacts (as provided for him by Sean Spicer) there was nothing to any of the Kremlingate stories

*His apparent agreement to investigate Trump-Russia after all came shortly after his total denial of the Kremlingate stories; he should have recused himself but refused to do so

*Having agreed to investigate Trump campaign ties to Russia, he has since spent his time avoiding such an investigation and diverted his committee down the garden path of non-existent wiretaps

*Comey has given two briefings to Nunes’ committee and both times the briefings were very general, whereas Comey’s briefings to Upper Chamber have resulted in tight-lipped and very worried senators.

Thus far Nunes remains on my list of GOP congressmen who are likely to be involved to some extent in Kremlingate while Chuck Grassley is in the clear.
