Schumer: ‘My Republican Colleagues’ Think Devin Nunes Is ‘off the Deep End’

‘So if Deven Nunes is there, Adam Schiff should be there’

EXCERPT:

SCHUMER: "Congress has a right to oversight and to know what’s going on after an investigation is complete. While an investigation is open and active, demands for oversight are tantamount to interference, especially when the folks demanding the information are the most biased, irresponsible actors. A man like Devin Nunes, who I hear privately from my Republican colleagues they think he’s off the deep end, and he’s going to get hold of this? And we think that’s for fair unbiased oversight? Give me a break. If such a meeting occurs — and I don’t believe it should — but if it occurs, it must be bipartisan, to serve as a check on the disturbing tendency of the President’s allies to distort facts and undermine the investigation and people conducting it. Democratic members of the House and Senate, the analogs of the Republicans selected to be in the room should be in the room as well. So, if Devin Nunes is there, Adam Schiff should be there.”
