House Intelligence Report reveals Nunes was in contact with Giuliani and his indicted associate
The House Intelligence Committee’s impeachment report released Tuesday includes call records showing that the committee’s own ranking member, Rep. Devin Nunes , was privately in contact with key players in President Donald Trump’s dealings with Ukraine that led to the impeachment inquiry.
The contacts occurred after Solomon published a column on April 7 that smeared Marie Yovanovitch, the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine. Yovanovitch was abruptly removed from her position in May after Trump allies and conservative media ― specifically Solomon ― falsely accused her of conspiring with Democrats to influence the 2016 presidential election and release damaging information against Trump.
A spokesperson for Nunes did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment. As the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, Nunes has been one of the White House’s most reliable allies in Congress, repeatedly pushing the conspiracy theory that Ukraine meddled in the 2016 election and accusing committee Chairman Adam Schiff of knowing and hiding the identity of the intelligence community whistleblower whose bombshell complaint sparked the impeachment investigation.
Parnas has also alleged that he helped Nunes set up meetings via Skype and over the phone with two other Ukrainian prosecutors who claimed “to have evidence that could help [Trump’s] reelection campaign.” Nunes was going to speak with the prosecutors in Ukraine, but reportedly canceled the trip after realizing he would have to inform Schiff of his plans, according to Bondy.
