Some investigation
Re “News of spying imperils Russia inquiry,” March 23
How deliciously ironic that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Tulare) exploits, or even worse instigates, the very intelligence leaks he and his Republican cohorts repeatedly have decried during the current hearings on Russian interference in the 2016 campaign.
Using classified information to further such a transparently partisan action — disclosing to the president some of the intelligence gathered on his campaign — not only damages Nunes’ personal integrity, it has also clearly damaged the ability of the committee to hold a fair, balanced and comprehensive investigation that requires holding the subjects at arm’s length.
