Chi-SpyGate: Intel board to probe if spy agencies withheld China election secrets over politics
"Clearly, this is a scandal that's brewing," PIAB chairman Devin Nunes says after Just the News reported U.S. intelligence kept evidence hidden from lawmakers that China gained access to Americans' voter registration data on several states.
he civilian board that oversees America's spy agencies will probe whether political bias kept intelligence analysts from sharing with Congress and President Donald Trump evidence that China meddled in elections dating to 2020, its chairman says after an explosive report by Just the News.
"We ran a decade-long investigation in the Congress into China, and so this new bombshell that you just dropped is very concerning to me, and it should be to the Congress," President's Intelligence Advisory Board Chairman Devin Nunes told the Just the News, No Noise television show.
"This information was likely around in 2019, probably in 2020. I don't know. We're going to have to unpack this and figure out why this didn't get to the Congress and why this didn't get out to the American public," Nunes said.
Nunes, a former chairman of the House Intelligence Committee before he left Congress to run the company that operates President Donald Trump's Truth Social platform, added: "Clearly, this is a scandal that's brewing."
Nunes was named last year by Trump to lead the PIAB, a nonpartisan body made up of distinguished civilians from the national security, political, academic, and private sectors charged with independently overseeing the Intelligence Community's day-to-day management or operational responsibilities.
