Devin Nunes Has Got Nothing (Short Version)

Long version here.

Republicans want you to believe that there's a 'deep state' conspiracy against Trump because:

18 days before the election, the FBI had an unverified dossier alleging that Trump had colluded with the Russians in multiple ways, and also hired prostitutes for kinky sex ---

AND INSTEAD OF MAKING IT PUBLIC, they filed a secret application to conduct surveillance on a guy only marginally connected to Trump's campaign who the Russians had tried to recruit as a spy in 2013 and who had previously been a target of surveillance in 2014 ---

AND THEN ONE WEEK LATER, the head of the FBI suggested that there was new evidence showing that Hillary Clinton had broken the law, except that there was no such evidence.

THIS CAN ONLY MEAN that the FBI/DOJ are really bad at 'deep state' stuff OR Republicans are really bad at finding evidence of the FBI/DOJ doing 'deep state' stuff.

But pretty much every Republican believes it's true, anyway.  Which is depressing as hell.
