Democrats' smear campaign against Trump sparked White House involvement in Ukraine, Devin Nunes says
By Nick Givas | Fox News
The Trump White House became involved in Ukrainian affairs to investigate a smear campaign from Democrats against the president, but the fact-finding mission was twisted and used as an excuse for impeachment, House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes, R-Calif., said in an interview airing Sunday.
Nunes appeared on "Life, Liberty & Levin" to discuss the House's impeachment inquiry into Trump, and said Democrats paid Fusion GPS to dig up dirt on the president through Ukrainian sources, helping spawn the probe from former Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
The California Republican also said it was perfectly reasonable for the president and his surrogates to go looking for answers after they faced attacked from all sides.
"What's just amazing is, the Democrats continue to say, 'oh, this is some kind of conspiracy theory'... The fact that Rudy Giuliani would be in Ukraine or talking to Ukrainians about, 'hey, where's this dirt that's being dug up on my client?' It would be a dereliction of Rudy Giuliani's responsibilities as the personal attorney to the president [not to do so]," Nunes said.
