The White House says it's currently reviewing the document, and the president said last night said that the chances of it being released are \"100 percent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, the memo remains classified.

And then he became quite agitated and he said, 'I'm not answering that.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley said there was a precedent for questioning Nunes' contacts with the White House. He pointed to what he called the Republican chairman's \"midnight ride\" to the White House in March \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/03/27/521667814/head-of-house-intel-committee-went-to-white-house-grounds-to-meet-source\">to receive classified documents from the administration\u003c/a> alleging improper \"unmasking\" of Trump associates in intelligence reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I fully believe that Chairman Nunes has not changed his tactics. He began this investigation as a subsidiary of the White House, as someone who was coordinating with them rather than being an independent investigator,\" Quigley said. \"The sad part is he is the chairman of the committee that is investigating the most important attack on our country's democracy in our lifetime.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes' office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Democrats raised questions about a possible White House role in crafting the memo, White House chief of staff John Kelly said he expected the memo to be made public soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It will be released here pretty quick, I think, and then the whole world can see it,\" Kelly told Fox News Radio on Wednesday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the White House's preference for making the memo public is clear, it remains unclear, at this point, exactly how the document would be released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A senior Republican on the intelligence committee, Rep. Michael Conaway of Texas, told NPR that the memo would be published in the Congressional Record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As I understand the mechanics, the way we actually release is that we insert it in the Congressional Record. The House has to be in session to do that,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House is currently out of session.

His office is investigating possible coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia's attack on the 2016 election. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The intelligence committee voted along party lines on Monday to release the memo to the public. The White House says it's currently reviewing the document, and the president said last night said that the chances of it being released are \"100 percent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For now, the memo remains classified. Lawmakers who have read it say it alleges the FBI and Justice Department gave scurrilous or incomplete evidence to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court in order to surveil people in the Trump camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its statement, the FBI says it \"takes seriously\" its obligations to the FISA court that approves surveillance for foreign intelligence purposes. The bureau says it is \"committed to working with the appropriate oversight entities to ensure the continuing integrity of the FISA process.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI's response also followed accusations by a Democrat on the intelligence committee that Nunes, a close Trump ally and member of the president's transition team, of working with the White House to prepare and now release the memo. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On CNN Wednesday, Rep. Mike Quigley, D-Ill., relayed a conversation he said he had with Nunes during a committee meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I asked the chairman, 'Did he work with'\" the Trump administration, \"and I asked all the preliminaries-- coordinate, discuss—and he said, 'not to my knowledge,'\" Quigley said. \"And I asked him, 'Did your staff?' And then he became quite agitated and he said, 'I'm not answering that.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley said there was a precedent for questioning Nunes' contacts with the White House. He pointed to what he called the Republican chairman's \"midnight ride\" to the White House in March \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/03/27/521667814/head-of-house-intel-committee-went-to-white-house-grounds-to-meet-source\">to receive classified documents from the administration\u003c/a> alleging improper \"unmasking\" of Trump associates in intelligence reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I fully believe that Chairman Nunes has not changed his tactics. He began this investigation as a subsidiary of the White House, as someone who was coordinating with them rather than being an independent investigator,\" Quigley said. \"The sad part is he is the chairman of the committee that is investigating the most important attack on our country's democracy in our lifetime.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes' office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Democrats raised questions about a possible White House role in crafting the memo, White House chief of staff John Kelly said he expected the memo to be made public soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It will be released here pretty quick, I think, and then the whole world can see it,\" Kelly told Fox News Radio on Wednesday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the White House's preference for making the memo public is clear, it remains unclear, at this point, exactly how the document would be released.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A senior Republican on the intelligence committee, Rep. Michael Conaway of Texas, told NPR that the memo would be published in the Congressional Record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As I understand the mechanics, the way we actually release is that we insert it in the Congressional Record. The House has to be in session to do that,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House is currently out of session. It's scheduled to return for a pro-forma session Friday afternoon, so if Conaway is right, then late Friday is the earliest the memo could be officially released. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

Instead, it said it is aware of \"public accusations\" that Nunes \"may have made unauthorized disclosures of classified information, in violation of House Rules, law, regulations, or other standards of conduct.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes said that it was in the intelligence committee's best interests for him to hand over leadership of the probe to Conaway during the ethics panel's inquiry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The allegations that Nunes mishandled classified data were prompted by his unusual press conference describing intelligence documents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House Intelligence Committee (along with other groups) is looking into Russian meddling in the election. They're also examining possible coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia. And they're asking how classified information about ties between Trump associates and Russia became public — looking into leaks, basically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early March, President Trump accused former President Barack Obama of \"wiretapping\" Trump Tower during the campaign. No evidence has ever supported this claim, which has been denounced at the highest levels of the intelligence community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Russia investigation intersected with the president's claims on March 22, when Nunes gave that press conference and said he had seen classified data showing \"incidental collection\" of Trump associates during the transition. That's not the same as wiretapping, and would not support Trump's claims, but the president claimed it supported his allegation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incident cast a cloud over the committee's investigation, and over Nunes in particular.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was widespread criticism from both parties. His sources were challenged: He went to the White House grounds to view the classified information, and some outlets have reported that his sources \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/30/us/politics/devin-nunes-intelligence-reports.html\">were White House officials\u003c/a>. There was outcry over how he briefed the president and the press, but did not share the data with his colleagues on the committee. There was concern that the presser showed Nunes was too entangled with Trump to properly investigate the Trump campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there were concerns that his public comments about classified data may have been illegal or unethical — in short, may have constituted the same kind of leak Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee had been loudly denouncing. It's those questions that appear to have prompted the ethics review and Nunes' departure from the investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A White House spokesman told reporters Thursday that, as far as the Trump administration was concerned, \"This is an internal matter for the House.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>NPR's Peter Overby contributed to this report. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

And protesters made sure he wasn’t getting away from the controversy during a visit back home on Friday to the Central Valley.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nunes, who chairs the committee, is under fire from Democrats who argue he is biased in favor of the Trump administration and should give up his role in leading the investigation. Nunes dismisses the criticism and says there’s no reason to step aside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">During a speech by the Tulare congressman to a meeting \u003ca href=\"http://www.aglenders.org/annual-meeting\" target=\"_blank\">of agriculture industry lenders\u003c/a> in Fresno, a few hundred protesters lined a street near a busy intersection carrying signs and bullhorns.

With signs reading “No Wall” and “Yes to the ACA,” marchers chanted “Keep our health care! No repeal!” as they were escorted across a busy street by police officers. They walked back and forth on the sidewalk outside of the gated neighborhood where Rep. Devin Nunes owns a home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian Carroll, a public school teacher in nearby Farmersville, held up a large white sign that listed some of his concerns: “No Reductions to Social Security. No Keystone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then he read out loud from the bottom of the sign: “I am not a paid protester. I live in the 93292 ZIP code and I am a constituent in California’s 22nd District.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carroll said he’s met all his former representatives at town hall meetings or other public events. He said one even came to talk to his eighth-grade class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
