EXCERPT:

HIMES: "It’s sort of hard to imagine how this investigation proceeds with any credibility. I am hopeful that maybe Adam and Congressman Nunes can come to some sort of agreement. But remember, there’s now a pattern and I’m kind of a believer in three strikes and you’re out. Look, just a couple weeks ago Devin Nunes is standing up for Michael Flynn saying he’s been brought down by Washington swamp creatures, that he deserves to be thanked, and of course he turns around and gets fired by the White House for lying to the VP. It turns out that both chairmen Burr and Nunes a couple of weeks ago are asked to knock down stories with the “New York Times' and now we have today’s events where Devin acting in a very irregular way takes potentially classified information to the media and then to the White House. We’re at a point here where all reasonable and thoughtful people would say, 'Get this investigation the heck out of the partisan fray that is in the Congress and put it in an outside, fully fair and bipartisan commission.'”
