He said what he suspected was going on.

Oddly, this hadn't occurred to me. If the president's name came up in incidental communication, then that would be damning. I'm paraphrasing obviously, but if it is something like this.

Russian Ambassador: "Mr. Flynn, we have received assurances from Mr. Trump that he would take steps to dismantle NATO"
Flynn: "Yes, he still plans on making those changes to our foreign policy"
Russian Ambassador: "...and Tillerson will be Secretary of State"
Flynn: "absolutely"

Of course, I'm just making up the conversation, but you can see that Trump is mentioned in this conversation that would be picked up if a FISA court allowed surveillance of Flynn.

McCain said "There are lots of shoes that are gonna drop." Perhaps Nunes caught this particular shoe.
