Devin Nunes un embarras pour les Républicains du Congrès?

Le Congrès peut-il mener une enquête impartiale sur les relations entre l'entourage de Donald Trump et la Russie? Il est de plus en plus difficile de répondre dans l'affirmative depuis que Devin Nunes, président du comité sur le renseignement, a informé le Président du contenu de certains dossiers et qu'il a consulté des documents secrets à la Maison Blanche. De quoi amener de l'eau au moulin des Démocrates qui demandent une enquête indépendante.

 "From there, it’s not a stretch for a reasonable person to consider whether Nunes, who served on Trump’s transition team, wants to protect the president. And from there, it’s not a stretch to question the impartiality of the investigation Nunes is leading in the House on Russia meddling in the U.S. election. ("It could very well be the case that Chairman Nunes was briefing members of the administration about an investigation of which they are the subject," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said on the Senate floor on Monday as he became the top-ranking Democrat to request Nunes step down from his committee post.)

 And that, say ethics and national security experts, is where the real damage in Nunes’s White House trip lies."
