"@DevinNunes has not read the [FISA] warrant from which the memo is said to be drawn. Rather than do so himself, Nunes designated Trey Gowdy to be the Republican reader"

The same Trey Gowdy who just abruptly announced his retirement.

Gowdy: "There is a Russia investigation without the dossier. The dossier has nothing to do with the meeting in Trump Tower, with an email sent by Cambridge Analytica, with Papadopoulos' meeting in Great Britain. So there's going to be a Russia probe even without the dossier"

This is a devastating blow to the campaign, led by @seanhannity and @GreggJarrett at @FoxNews, to find some reason - any reason - to shut down the #TrumpRussia investigation as it draws closer to Trump. With yet another chip falling in Rick Gates, the clock is ticking.

Gowdy: "I don't think the memo has any impact on the Russia probe, and I was integrally involved in the drafting of it."

Gowdy is the 1 Republican who has actually read the FISA application.

He then rather suddenly announced his retirement. #TrumpRussia

The Cambridge Analytica email to which Gowdy refers: the attempt to obtain Clinton's emails from Wikileaks' @JulianAssange #NunesMemo #TrumpRussia

Q: “Was that justified, that surveillance [on Carter Page]?

Gowdy: “We’ll never know because the application contained 3 parts, including other information they had on Carter Page”
