Nunes: Mueller's Bias Evident

Scott Johnson of Power Line posts this video: Fox Business News' Maria Bartiromo interviews House Intelligence Committee chair Devin Nunes (R-CA) about the Strzok hearings and Mueller's indictment of 12 more Russians. Nunes drops a bombshell.

Mueller's indictment speaks only of Russian hacking of Democrat organizations and operatives. Nunes claims that his committee's April report, heavily redacted, shows they also attacked Republican operations during the election. Nunes asks why those were left out, and claims his committee has the proof but are not allowed for national security reasons to release it.

The clear implication is that Mueller wants to buttress the claim Russians favored Trump, when their mischief-makers were truly making trouble for both sides. If they made more trouble for Democrats it was because Hillary was expected to win by nearly everyone.

Nunes inferentially claims Mueller's actions are biased to slander the Trump administration, perhaps in support of an eventual claim of obstruction of justice. Trump should declassify the committee's unredacted April report immediately, and let the proverbial chips fall wherever they will.
