Rep. Matt Gaetz: Our republic is in jeopardy if we allow this type of a palace coup environment to continue to persist and that’s why I’m one of the members of Congress who will be encouraging today Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes to release the memo. We can have a vote in the Intelligence Committee, a vote in the full House of Representatives. And this is a matter of such importance that I think we need to do it immediately… If we get this memo into the public square heads are going to roll at the FBI and the Department of Justice… What I’m worried about is that the cast of characters in the memo are not a group of people that are gone. Many of these people are still in our government. They still wield influence… It’s easy to see after reading this memo why Senator Grassley and why Senator Graham wanted to refer this matter for criminal prosecution. Laws were broken… I have every confidence after speaking to Paul Ryan and Devin Nunes that after we go through the right procedures and provide notifications to the executive branch that we will release this memo…

Histrionics don't impress me.

If terrible things are KNOWN to have happened....then DO SOMETHING to those that did the KNOWN terrible thing. But, let's stop the hyperbole and pearl clutching and exaggerating.


"Millions will die because of tax cuts"

"Our Republic may perish because of ______"


silliness

Presumably, they still want this kind of power when one of 'their guys' is in office.

I listened Gaetz give a couple of different interviews yesterday. He is angry, really angry, over what he read.

first off, that's impossible... unless your name rhymes with Waxine Maters.

Secondly, nice flame. Care to substantiate? I know you cant... but just want to be on record that your post carries no weight.

They are trying to prep the country for disclosure of how tyrannical things had become but so many will never believe it. It can't just drop at once. Some people can process a lot of information quickly. For most people to grasp the depth it must be done slowly. Jmo

This seems plausible I guess. I just find it silly that if this was more serious than Watergate, then stop being a bunch of pussies and release it

They already do, and yet, here we are still screaming at anyone and everyone to release the memo
