Allegations that have made Republican Rep. Devin Nunes of California so angry he is vowing to sue media outlets that published them could become fodder for House Democrats to launch an ethics investigation into Nunes.
CNN reported Friday that Nunes, the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, met with Ukrainian Prosecutor General Victor Shokin in Vienna last December. Its source for the story was Joseph Bondy, the attorney for indicted Rudy Giuliani associate Lev Parnas, who claimed he was told about the meeting by Shokin.
“Parnas says he worked to put Nunes in touch with Ukrainians who could help Nunes dig up dirt on [former Vice President Joe] Biden and Democrats in Ukraine, according to Bondy,†CNN reported.
On Saturday, MSNBC’s Joy Reid asked House Armed Services Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Smith whether that report was enough to trigger an ethics investigation of Nunes.
“Quite likely, without question,†the Washington state Democrat said.
