Republicans should listen to the wiser elders especially Lindsey Graham who don’t believe releasing the memo serves this country very well. The IC has simply been doing its job and there is plenty of evidence supporting Russian interference in our election.

Sure. Just like the past 60 years or so.

They're not going to release the Memo prior to the Greenbriar speech, and then they're not going to release it so it can dominate coverage over the Greenbriar speech.

Logic suggests they are following the rules to the T to avoid bad optics and avoid accusations that this is somehow "obstruction of justice". Why?


They can say that the FBI did in fact have input on the document. True.

Schiff even claimed this was an "attempt to get Mueller and the #2 in the DOJ fired."


Less of an attempt to get Mueller than exposing the process that put Mueller into play.

- illegal or corrupt means to get a fosa based on politics.

- expose the players.

Miss Lindsey???

LOL

That guy is the epitome of Swamp Creature. He’s one of the slimiest, most fundamentally corrupt individuals in American public life. No decent person should listen to him.

This memo is all about trying to discredit the investigation into the Russians. By attacking the FBI Nunes and Trump Administration want to lay groundwork for firing Mueller. Even if they succeed the investigation still will continue. Mueller must be very very close.

Schumer and Pelosi now in contact with Paul Ryan begging him to intervene and stop the release.



Yeah, I'm sure they are pleading with Ryan bigly. Nancy, Chuck and the entire MSM's angst concerning the memo leads me to believe that all the "secret" information implicates Obama.

Obama as been kept pretty clean so far in this entire scandal. It's a full stop push right now from the left to keep it that way.

Hopefully Ryan says "NO!"

I think Ryan is on board with Trump (for now). He has already told Rosenstein to GTFO when Rosenstein begged him and I have no doubt he will do the same to Schumer/Pelosi.

This memo must be more explosive than I thought. The fact they are going absolutely insane tells me there is more here than mere FISA abuse on Carter Page. No way they (or Trump) cares that much about Page.

Nah. This is about exposing the FBI and DOJ corruption in the Obama administration.

The Russian investigation can continue unless the Russian investigation is based on fake pretenses associated with facts outlined in the memo.

But we know the Russian investigation is not based on fake pretenses, right?

Yeah, Ryan has already come out publicly and stated he wants to release the memo. If he reneges on that promise he will be crucified.

And then it gets lost over the weekend, Dems/MSM drop a fake news scandal to push the memo out of the news cycle by Monday. I guarantee it.

Care to share that with us?

And I don't mean an anonymous Twitter rant, or your cousin's Facebook post.

Like what?

Voting machine tampering? Nope

A propaganda meme campaign pushed by Russian bots on Twitter and FB? Yep. And the meme's were both for and against BOTH CANDIDATES. Big deal. This isn't "collusion".

So what else is there?

The hacking of the DNC server and Podesta GMail account?

There's no credible proof of this being tied to the Russians.

Crowdstrike are the ONLY ONES who have seen the DNC server and attributed the stolen files and emails to alleged Russian hackers. To this day, nobody in our justice department has ever examined that server and verified the Crowdstrike report and contentions.

And the fact we now know the DNC and Hillary campaign paid Fusion GPS to help fabricate a false dossier, and Fusion GPS has ties through the Atlantic Counsel to Crowdstrike, there is reasonable belief that Crowdstrike was also paid by the DNC and Hillary to fabricate the report of Russians hacking their server and phishing Podesta's GMail.

I mean email phishing scams aren't even freaking considered "hacking". It's an absurdly low percentage of success endeavor that requires boatloads of pure luck.

What are the chances Podesta would fall for it (click the link, believe Google is asking him to reset his password, then input his password), first of all?

Second, what are the chances that Podesta has 60,000 emails still sitting there because the idiot doesn't apparently ever delete his email archive?

That's NOT sophisticated "hacking" by a government spy organization. That's some identity thief getting lucky as shite, and he then sold those emails to Wikileaks.

So what else is there?

All that said, there's ZERO evidence of Team Trump being involved in any of that.

5 year old tax evasion and a few process crimes for lying about speaking to a Russian in perfectly legal conversations that had nothing to do with any of this shite isn't evidence of anything.


You're also forgetting the big elephant in the room....

You notice how good our economy is doing?

If the Russians/Putin wanted Trump elected, and they helped him by hacking and spreading propaganda to hurt Hillary and help Trump...

You're suggesting that Russia wanted our country and economy to get better. And not just better, but go into turbo mode rocketing straight up, growing and expanding at breakneck speed.

Is that what you're saying? That Putin wanted us to be energy independent? He wanted our stock market to grow by Trillions? He wanted our corporate tax rate to go down and make us so attractive that companies are flocking to the US with billions in investment and millions of jobs? He wanted us to have more border security and make our military stronger?

How exactly are you going to reconcile this pretty important detail?
