Is it just the memo? Or are they releasing supporting documentation as well?

my understanding was that it was just the sacred memo to be released.

Already burning sources and methods so they should say screw it and release it all.

I thought they were pushing for supporting documentation as well

i hope they don't release supporting documentation yet so you can keep hope alive for a few more days.

It's just the memo. I have no problem with the supporting docs getting released either. But Adam Schiff thinks we're too stupid to understand the memo, so not sure how we'd be able to handle the whole of it.

hope for what?

I want full disclosure. I don't find executive summaries to be much worth.

Is this not something we can all agree on?

The trick play is to release the memo and let the opposing side build a narrative then release the supporting documents to show the narrative was false.

dont take my word as authority. I have been trying to keep the story at arms length until something tangible is there to form an opinion on. I believe i heard that on the radio this morning that the supporting documentation would not be released, only the 3-4 page memo which i believe is what nunes crafted. That was prior to Trumps announcement of releasing it tonight though.

i mean, if you're holding out hope the memo is based on lies..then yeah.

haven't both the IC and FBI examined it already & said it was true?

Hopefully just the memo.

Then wait for Schfforbrains to drop his fair and balanced memo.

Wait for the media and the libs to spout off about it, then drop all the documents on their heads.

Wray has already read it... and took obvious actions.

Do you want him to write you a letter about its origin?

No.

I guess my point is that a memo with no supporting documentation is pretty much worthless.

I imagine if the memo's accusation are large enough, the supporting evidence will or at least should come out eventually.

I just know last week there was talk of releasing it all and I hadn't heard whether that was still the case. I'm disappointed it isn't all being released.

It's reasonable to expect a summary of classified information to be released to the public during multiple ongoing investigations but it's probably not reasonable to expect all of the classified information that supports the summary to be released at the same time. I'd like for all of the information to be released, but we can't throw the baby out with the bath water.

If the summary is so damning, there will be a clamor for evidence to support the accusations, in which case we will get the evidence piecemeal as it is able to be censored to redact the classified information. If the FBI looked at it and didn't find fault with it (even though the FBI is one of the current targets of that memo), I think it's safe to say that the memo is fraudulent and based on lies like Pelosi wants us to believe.

So you think over 100 GOP members, plus the FBI director are in on the scam?

You don't think Schiff has seen the underlying documents?

Makes the Trump look good, so I'm sure they are for it. He already said he wanted it released even though he hadn't even read it. Just a political game.
