House Intelligence Committee ranking member Devin Nunes, and House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jim Jordan discuss several topics of concern in/around Washington DC including the recent indictment of Christopher Steele source Igor Danchenko.  {Direct Rumble Link}

Within the conversation, CTH readers get a good look at one of the problems we have discussed exclusively on these pages, the issue of the information silos.  Both Nunes and Jordan discuss information from the perspective of their legislative silo, without standing back to consider the issues as they exist in the larger dynamic.

Ex. ¹Notice how both congressional advocates discuss Danchenko from the perspective of giving the FBI the source material (inside the dossier) to trigger the FISA surveillance authorities.  Yet, both miss the motive of why the FBI needed the FISA surveillance authority to cover for pre-existing unlawful surveillance that was already taking place prior to October of 2016.  WATCH:

¹Having spoken to staffers on these committees, this is one of the more frustrating issues to accept.  The silo effect, the outlook that only extends their investigation insofar as their legislative authority reaches, permits the Fourth Branch of Government to continue playing the Legislative Branch as fools.
