Nunes temporarily stepping aside from Russia investigation

It was likely to expose connections between associates of businessman Donald Trump and foreign agents and even mobsters. If you have no desire to be exposed for connections with them, then there is one sure way to avoid the consequences of such scrutiny: avoid the crooks and foreign agents. If they were staying at Trump hotels -- then tough luck. If they had been staying at Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott, or Wyndham hotels -- or for that matter, Motel 6 or Super 8  --  then they might have drawn the attention of law enforcement. The Obama Administration was tough on crime.

Aren't we all told from childhood to stay clear of criminals and spies?

We have a monstrously-corrupt President and both Houses of Congress basically run by corporate lobbyists. With this President, any investigation can proceed only so long as it does not expose you-know-who.
