The House Intelligence Committee wants a probe into the leaks of phone talks between Michael Flynn and the Russian ambassador, asking why a US national security adviser was recorded by the FBI and why press was briefed ahead of the White House. “I want to hear from the FBI as to how this got out,” Devin Nunes, the California Republican who heads the committee, told reporters on Tuesday, as reported by CNN. “We don't even know if this is true. We just know this from press reports.” Later in the day, he said the FBI must explain the situation surrounding Flynn, “and they better have a good answer,” as cited by the Washington Post. “The big problem I see here is that you have an American citizen who had his phone calls recorded.” According to the newspaper, Nunes was outraged that the recordings have been leaked, citing a complex procedure of intercepting communications involving US nationals citizens and then “unmasking” it for intelligence purposes. Sounds like General Flynn could be on his way back to the position of National Security Adviser, if the House Intelligence Committee discovers Flynn did no wrong doing. Wouldn't that be great if General Flynn retakes his position...To only see the reaction of Democrats and Liberals going into a complete meltdown if this happens? Now General Flynn could retake the position, as the position of National Security Adviser doesn't need a confirmation vote from the Senate. If the House Committee discovers no wrong doing on the part of General Flynn, then President Trump should instantly invite him back to the position of National Security Adviser immediately.
