An idiot like Nunes and a mental lightweight like Ryan are about to find out what it's like to play with big boys.

Wouldn't he know?

Maybe they have had some verbal negotiation and are waiting for a written agreement.

Either that or maybe he's just trying to put more pressure on Rosenstein.

Why would Rosenstein need to meet with Ryan in the first place? Ok, I can see it happening, but isn't this sort of thing usually handled in a letter? And why is Nunes reporting on the meeting immediately? I thought this was Rosenstein and Ryan's meeting. Why would lackey Nunes be the first to bring us this news (that's a rhetorical question asked sarcastically). Nunes is pulling some sort of stunt, and I'm not falling for it.

Yesterday was the deadline given to DOJ & FBI to provide the documents subpoenaed in August

Since Rosenstein and Wray are apparently going to provide the requested information it would seem that Ryan backed Nunes.

Maybe set up room at FBI for Nunes to go into but not remove anything?
