Lawfare’s Benjamin Wittes had to admit Devin Nunes was right to be concerned about the FISA process … you know this probably ‘hurt’ him to write.

Sorta.
He still seems awfully cranky that Nunes is feeling somewhat vindicated after spending so much time being trashed and laughed at about his concerns. How dare he?! Doesn’t Nunes know ORANGE MAN BAD?!
The nerve.
Wish @benjaminwittes, et al, could state unequivocally — “Hey, was wrong to trash @DevinNunes; memo worthy reflection of then-yet-to-be-released IG report.”
But no one truly apologizes anymore, Chuck. There are simply *degrees* of mea culpas that avoid full blame acceptance.

True story.
Many, many, many people in politics and in the media owe Nunes an apology, and we’re not seeing them go out of their way to extend him one. So that Wittes wrote even this much about how he was too dismissive is somewhat significant.
“Nunes was right but he’s still wrong”.

That’s how it came off to us as well.
Heh.
Dr. Tick Tock Von Boom Boom keeps spinning his little cannon but every time it goes off in his face.
Pretty sad when someone who thinks their so educated can’t figure out what millions of us have know for a long time & still can’t figure out there was a coup.

We FORGOT about his nickname. Thinking it came from Mollie Hemingway …
For all you youngsters out there. Never let emotions get in the way of facts. You will be made to look stupid every single time.

He goes on to say the document should still be taken seriously. Right.

Hilarious, right?
And not hilarious ‘haha,’ more hilarious ‘pathetic.’
