To add to the record: We're on page 7 and no one has actually defended Trump's NOT reading the memo.

But I can read newspapers. That's what I'm basing my opinion on.

they haven't read the memo yet, either

quote:

What are you/SFP reading?

a lot of wild speculation from un-named sources on both sides of the aisle, which means nothing of importance

quote:

What leads you to believe the FBI is trying to protect itself?

self interest
Game Theory
history of bureaucracy in pretty much every form

why would the FBI not protect itself?

quote:

Why do you think there is some bombshell to come from the memo?

i think that this memo centers around using the DEM-funded Steele memo to justify a FISA warrant against Page

it's not a bombshell as much as connective glue that, in the most favorable light, makes HRC, the DEMs, and the FBI look very bad

"very bad" does not mean they committed a crime, but there are legitimate inquiries that need to be investigated if this is revealed. also, if this is the substance of the memo, the arguments for "national security" are bunk.

quote:

So many of you are CONVINCED the FBI is hiding something. Why is that?

uh

they're an arm of the federal government

they're LEO

they're a bureaucratic body

i could keep going

I’ve read the minutes of the HIC meeting ( vote to release)

I’ve watched / listened to CNN ( linked an interesting interview in a post yesterday)

I’ve read the same documents you have.


I have made no assertion of what is in the memo or what it means.

I am for sunshine. I cannot understand your idea that we ( the people) should not have understanding of what our Fed police are doing.

I’m unafraid of a police force that isn’t allowed complete secrecy. I want information.

because it relies on un-named sources and even if it's true, it's a nothingburger

you're misrepresenting the story. he didn't read the memo BEFORE he wanted it published.

quote:

The president did not actually see the memo — written by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) and Nunes’s staff — until Wednesday afternoon


quote:

White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly marched the document into the Oval Office so that he and Trump could briefly discuss it before the president’s meeting with regional reporters.

The president was then left alone to read the memo in its entirety.


he has read the memo

It is.

When understand steele's sources are Russian operatives, combine that with it being funded by hillarys campaign, and wrap it up in the government using it to undermine a candidate and duly elected president it is the ACTUAL Russia collusion that the loons have been projecting on trump for a year and a half.
