the chair of that committee, the person who will lead the committee is mike conway from texas. paul ryan, the house pespeaker, said he still has faith in devin nunes and supports devin nunes. at the same time, devin nunes thought it was a distraction. >> this is a big deal. if you're just joining us. this was a man defiant in the face of critics, some from his own party, going to the white house, bringing this intelligence. this is someone who time and time again refused to recuse himself, insisting he could lead an independent investigation on the house side. now manu raju with us who has been following him every step of the way, lhe would not answer whether this was because of paul ryan. he is blaming what he calls left wing activist groups for ethics violation complaints they brought. this is the first -- john and i have heard of this. what is he talking about. >> those complaints were levelled in the aftermath of how he briefed the president on the surveillance information. the allegations that he may have mishandled classified information, but really that appears to be cov

and a member of congress, mike conway, who is a republican from texas, is going to lead the russia spying. with assistance. so it looks like what nunes is saying is on all things in front of the intelligence committee, i will still be the chair but i'm stepping aside on this russian probe. >> it is interesting, brian, the man leading the investigation now being investigated. the speaker of the house, paul ryan, says he supports the decision of the congressman to step aside here. my question to you is, are paul ryan and nunes on the same page, do you think? is there a lot of honesty between these two men? >> i'm sure they're talking. this one catches people by surprise. you know, this is, you know, very much what we're seeing in washington right now. it's part of the new government, both -- all three branches frankly trying to figure out the road ahead. so this one today was a big surprise. i think people have been, you know, in his kind of position for many years and people are lobbing charges and goes about their work. his stepping aside was an interesting move this morning on the russia

when did mike conway of texas find out that he was taking over the investigation? eporter: melissa, conway tells us that he got a phone call from nunes last night asking him to take over. the texas congressman said even though he doesn't think nunes did anything wrong, he hasn't seen any information that he mishandled classified information, he agreed to do it. nunes -- rather conway said he still has not seen the evidence that nunes said he got from the white house source that made him think that members of the trump transition team were inappropriately unmasked by intel agencies. >> do you know how much longer it will be until you see the documents that basically are the reason chairman nunes had to step aside? >> again, we're going to conduct the investigation. we're going to pursue every lead and get to the bottom of this and take as long as take its. looking forward to working with my colleagues on this. >> reporter: he also said speaker ryan is giving him discretion to run the investigation. democrats were calling for nunes to recuse himself. now they seem pre

mike conway from texas is in. is that enough of a tde up to make the ranking member sound optimistic? >> apparently. obviously what happened a couple of weeks ago is this whole weird saga of devin nunez getting documents he showed to the white house. it really undercut the ability of the house committee to investigate this matter to the point they basically had to step aside. so now we're irin a point where the committee seems to be getting back on his feet. it does seem like they're clawing back into the game. they're still behind what seems to be much more competently run senate committee investigation. you listen to senator burr who are running these things. they steam to be actually collaborating on this matter much more fruitfully than what's going on in the house. you ask how long will this take and the answers you get is somewhere between six to eight months and that is sort of optimistically. so this thing is going to continue. we will continue to incrementally get updates. >> i want to tip toe back to wha

there is a new person on the republican side, congressman mike conway of texas, who is going to be supposedly helming this part of the investigation. should we expect there will be more public hearings, that this investigation will go on? >> we're in the best place we've been in since chairman nunes went to the white house the day after director comey and rogers' hearings. we're back on track and agreed to an extensive witness list when we get back to washington in about a week and a half. we'll start interviewing those witnesses. it's my hope we have that public hearing we promised the american people with former acting attorney general sally yatesth in former directors clapper and brennan. and that would be an important step to showing that we're getting to the bottom of what happened, whether any u.s. persons were involved and, most importantly, how to make sure we're never in this mess again. >> congressman eric swalwell of california, thank you, sir. appreciate your time toent. >> my pleasure. >>> we're reacting to this breaking news from "the washington post" tonight. the headline is "f

the people that are going to lead this probe is congressman mike conway with the assistance he says ofo republican members of the committee. now, there was a meeting, actually that happened right now, a closed door private meeting. devin nunes did, i'm told from a source of the room that he stepped out of the meeting early. a statement just came out. real change. we were not expecting this at all. devin nunes has been digging in. but a lot of questions about whether or not this investigation could have moved forward in a credible manner given his decision to brief the president of the united states in about surveillance information that he said showed a collection of trump officials during the time of the presidential transition now briefing the democrats before then but also by canceling a public hearing that was supposed to take place. the democrats wanted that public hearing to take place. we have heard from a number of people that presumably would have raised concerns about any of these contacts that occurred between russian officials and the trump campaign. but a big shift here an

this is not good news for the white house because what's the lesson that mike conway is likely to take away? this is a serious investigation. your he not reporting to the white house what devin nunes seemed to be doing and to have credibility you need to have a bipartisan investigation going forward, working with adam schiff and the democrats. mike conaway we should note conservative republican from one of the most republican districts in the country, midland, texas, a good friend of george w. bush, and part of that establishment republican wing that is likely to take an investigation of this sort very seriously. >> this of course all comes amid some instability within the west wing itself, the shakeup we learned about yesterday. steve bannon the president's controversial chief strategist, ousted from the national security council. reports that he threatened to leave over being ousted from the nsc. he pushes back saying that's total nonsense. carol what are the implications for the president, what do you make of it given all the tests he's facing on north korea and syria. >> if you ste
