"Nunes said he relied on the review of committee member Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.)" The Hill

No wonder Trey announced his retirement to the Fourth Circuit.

More irrelevant blather. Right from your own posted article:

Nunes, the chairman of the committee, brushed off news reports that accused him of not seeing the underlying documents as “bogus.”
He explained that the committee set up an agreement with the Justice Department that would allow just one person to review the documents.

Nunes said he thought Gowdy would be the best choice because of his background as a federal prosecutor, and that Gowdy then shared his notes and observations with the rest of the members.

At least this makes sense. Far more sense than, say, Dems who don't read legislation before they pass it.

So, you're OK with the chair of arguably the most serious House oversight committee conspiring with the White House to write a spurious attack on the FBI and the Justice Department in the midst of a serious national security investigation, the likes of which he should be doing in parallel as Chair of the Intelligence Committee?
