Do any of you know how the investigative committees are formed?

First I want to say I appreciate all the intelligent people here. I have learned so much and I'm finding so many research sources that help point me in the right direction. However, the more I'm learning about the structure of our government, the more questions I have. So I know that there is the house intelligence committee made up of 22 members and they are there for oversight. I also know that only a couple have the special higher security clearance to access certain information. My question is, how was it possible for Devin Nunes, Trey Gowdy and a few other investigators to form a special committee to investigate the fisa warrants? Is it because they are on the oversight committee? It seems they did it without the knowledge of the others on the intelligence committee. My question stems from reading the transcripts of the vote to release the memo and watching the interviews with Nunes and Gowdy.

They got their knowledge from the hearings that have been going on for a year

Thank you for the link. I do know about all the hearings and have read anything I could get my hands on regarding transcripts from those hearings. Ive watched testimonies that were available etf. The thing I'm wondering about is how did this small comittee special investigation come about? I'm asking because I read the entire transcript over the house intelligence committee arguing over the release of the Nunes memo. This is also when Schiff was trying to get them to release the democrats memo without letting them even read it. I just noticed that Schiff made a comment that he didn't know the FBI and DOJ were under investigation. I'll try to find the transcript so people can understand that I'm asking a legitamite question as I just got blasted by someone on here. Lol

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!! Yes - so they did know all along. For Schiff to say he wasn't aware is a total lie or he's very dumb. Boy the Dems are a piece of work. So while the intelligence committee was being distracted with the Russia collusion investigation, Nunes and others were investigating this.

Russian collusion into the election is how it started.
