To be fair, they've been pretty vocal in the last week that this whole unmasking thing is in regards to another investigation separate from the Russian interference investigation. Which could be equally crazy in itself, that either they are communicating with some other super-shady organization, or super-shady organization is talking about acquiring influence over the Trump administration.
My gut feeling is that whatever this investigation is ends up being a non-story (unlike the Russian influence thing which I think is massive); the plan was to set it up as a straw-man to easily knock down, but thanks to Nunes, the story about creating this strawman ends up outweighing the strawman itself in a lot of media outlets.
