Oh dear

Strawweight your help & answers please.........
I know Blame Trump.. ::)
-
Long story short, the US Department of Justice(DOJ) and the US Federal Bureau of Investigation(FBI) were working with the DNC, with Hillary and possibly with the Obama administration, abusing their power, playing dirty tricks and breaking the law in order to do everything in their power to insure Trump lost the presidential election.
This is an outrage. You American citizens are gonna put up with this $h1t?
-
Somebody add the FBI and the DOJ to this image. Trump wasn't supposed to win, but he won against all odds.

It blew up in their faces, fuckin idiots. Nunes admitted on Fox propaganda channel that he didn't even read the Fisa warrant evidence, but yet wrote a memo claiming it was biased. What an idiot. The Fisa warrant was based on Papadopoulos, not Page, which the dipshit actually was dumb enough to state in his own memo. They already had the warrant before the Steele dossier, and it was reviewed and renewed twice, which requires evidence of progress in the investigation. It was renewed once under the Trump administration. Dumbest fuckers in the world. The FBI and Mueller are just laughing at these dumbasses. Amateur hour in full swing.

How long have we been hearing about this memo damning the dems and they and the fbi have fought to keep it secret, it gets released and suddenly, inexplicably, the dems have a rebuttal memo that contradicts this one?
Nothing shady there ::)

some on this board are obviously Russian antagonists..... I don't have to name names.. its obvious

Is that right? Then I wonder why the Democrats, the FBI and the DOJ were so strongly opposed to declassifying it.
That's their only alternative now. To say there is nothing in it now so that they can continue to keep people like lilhawk, Grasping, etc. dumb as they will only believe what is told to them by their fearless leaders. They don't handle logic well so coming to a different conclusion based on facts is not something that they are capable of.
As you stated, this memo was soooo bad that they should not release it. Now, there is nothing too it? Logic suggests something......

Again... the Democrats opposed the memo because they believed it contained disputed facts and was misleading. They also know that many americans are meme people, they believe anything they read as long as it fits their preconceived beliefs. They believed it was unfair, misleading and contained inaccuracies and half truths. Now that the horse is out of the barn, they have done what they can to offset the damage by reminding people of the very same things they were saying prior to it's release

Jesus Christ you're so ill-informed it's mind-boggling...
"So, the agreement we made with the Department of Justice was to create a reading room and allow one member and two investigators to go over and review the documents," Nunes told Baier. "I thought the best person on our committee will be the chairman of the Oversight Committee, Trey Gowdy, who has a long career as a federal prosecutor, to go and do this. And then they over a series of meetings would come back with their notes and brief the rest of the committee members."

What do you think about Gowdy saying that "The contents of this memo do not - in any way - discredit his investigation."

I think he's toeing the line since he's part of the bigger problem with the government. Also the Clintons/Mueller team probably has enough dirt on him to put him away for a long time.
Or maybe Killary emailed him a copy of his suicide note ???

Rep. Trey Gowdy: FBI concealed Clinton role in Steele dossier
Washington Times ^ | 2/4/2018 | Tom Howell, Jr.
Posted on 2/4/2018, 2:58:52 PM by advance_copy
The House’s top investigator on Sunday said the FBI failed to notify a surveillance court it was relying on material funded by Democrats and the Hillary Clinton campaign when it asked to snoop on an adviser tied to the Trump campaign.
Rep. Trey Gowdy, South Carolina Republican and chairman of the House Oversight Committee, also said judges wouldn’t have authorized and repeatedly renewed a warrant to spy on the former Trump aide, Carter Page, if it hadn’t been for that very material, compiled by investigator Christopher Steele in a controversial dossier.
“They could have easily said it was the DNC and Hillary Clinton. That would have been really easy,” Mr. Gowdy told CBS’s Face the Nation, referring to footnotes in the agents’ request to the court. “It took longer to explain it the way they did, than if they just come right out and said, ‘Hillary Clinton for America and DNC paid for it.’ But they didn’t do that.”
Mr. Gowdy was involved in drafting a four-page memo by the House Intelligence Committee that details the FBI’s decision to rely in part on Clinton-backed material to spy on Mr. Page in October 2016. It also explores the role of top Justice Department officials in renewing those snooping powers.

So in your mind Clinton and the DNC hired Steele and said please create a dossier of false information for us to use against Trump
Is that essentially what you believe?
-
That is what is being alleged...
The “dossier” compiled by Christopher Steele (Steele dossier) on behalf of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Hillary Clinton campaign formed an essential part of the Carter Page FISA application. Steele was a longtime FBI source who was paid over $160,000 by the DNC and Clinton campaign, via the law firm Perkins Coie and research firm Fusion GPS, to obtain derogatory information on Donald Trump’s ties to Russia.
Let me guess, you disagree.

something is missing in that info you cut and pasted
It's pretty blatant
Do you know what it is?
btw - when you cut and paste something you should post a link so we know where you got it
-
To me, if you analyze the sequence of events since Comey's dismissal, again, TO ME, it seems as though Trump's got this case by the balls. Firstly, one of the candidates is found out to have given priority treatment by the media, has been found to sponsor lying to a US court /committee in order to get other people investigated AND almost got a US president (Obama) in trouble for (what looks to be) misuse of executive power when they figured all was about to be lost.
The deeper this rabbit hole gets, the tighter the grip will get around the democrats.
It's a no-win situation for any of the parties AND the Nation.

Now you're just nitpicking words to avoid the truth.
con·coct
kənˈkäkt/
verb
make (a dish or meal) by combining various ingredients.
"they concoct relish from corn that is so naturally sweet no extra sugar is needed"
synonyms:prepare, make, assemble; More
create or devise (said especially of a story or plan).
"they concocted a preposterous but entertaining story"
synonyms:make up, dream up, fabricate, invent, trump up; More
The bolded part pertains to the Steele "dossier"
I don't feel like you're smart enough to have these conversations with, you seem to struggle with the simplest of facts.

your #1 claim is Hillary and the DNC hired a foreign spy to CONCOCT A FAKE DOSSIER
IF you can't find those exact words then just find the section where Nunes says Clinton and the DNC hired Steele (the foreign spy) to fabricate information about Trump
Again this is YOUR #1 PREMISE....remember?

Intelligence Committee approves release of Dems’ rebuttal to FISA memo
Alex Pappas By Alex Pappas | Fox News
The House Intelligence Committee on Monday approved the release of the Democratic rebuttal to the highly-publicized GOP memo that alleges government surveillance abuse during the 2016 campaign.
"We think this will help inform the public of the many distortions and inaccuracies in the majority memo," California Rep. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the panel, told reporters.
The vote was unanimous, he said.
Schiff said Democrats have given the DOJ and the FBI a copy of their counter-memo and have asked them to tell them what redactions should be made for national security reasons.
On Friday, Republicans on the Intelligence Committee released the memo from Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., which claimed the FBI and DOJ would not have sought surveillance warrants to spy on onetime Trump campaign adviser Carter Page without the infamous, Democrat-funded anti-Trump dossier.
Panel weighs in.
The White House responded by saying the memo “raises serious concerns about the integrity of decisions made at the highest levels of the Department of Justice and the FBI to use the government’s most intrusive surveillance tools against American citizens.”
President Trump – as he did for the original GOP memo – has several days to consider whether he should block the release for national security reasons.
The Nunes memo has fueled accusations from Republicans of bias against Trump by top FBI and Justice Department officials.
Schiff said Monday said Democrats want to make sure the White House "does not redact our memo for political purposes."
Sarah Sanders, the White House press secretary, suggested Friday the president would be open to releasing the counter-memo.
“The administration stands ready to work with Congress to accommodate oversight requests consistent with applicable standards, including the need to protect intelligence sources and methods,” Sanders said of the Democratic memo.
"Hey, we caught ‘em. Oh its so fun. We’re like the great sleuth."
- President Trump
TRUMP: 'DID WE CATCH THEM IN THE ACT OR WHAT?'
Schiff -- referencing how Nunes has said the GOP memo was “phase one” of the process to release information on government surveillance abuses -- argued the Democratic memo is “phase two.”
Earlier Monday, during a speech in Ohio, the president celebrated the release of the GOP memo.
“Oh, but did we catch them in the act or what,” the president said. “You know what I’m talking [about]. Oh, did we catch them in the act!”
He added: “They are very embarrassed. They never thought that they were going to get caught. We caught ‘em. Hey, we caught ‘em. Oh its so fun. We’re like the great sleuth.”

Gee, what a surprise
Trumptard won't release the Dems memo
Apparently now he claims to suddenly care what the FBI and Justice Department think
Odd, since they both objected to the Nunes memo and he still released it anyway
I wonder what the difference could be this time?
It's a real mystery

so just wondering how you can be so uninformed

Trump sent the first Republican version back to be changed a bit and it had to be voted on again. Why do Democrats not expect the same treatment?
They probably purposefully put stuff in that they knew wouldn't pass muster just for an excuse to put out another headline.

Which part? The part about them wanting to be treated differently then the Republican version or the other part? Either way is a joke on their part. If the latter it does help them to deceive their followers once again.
Their memo is also over twice as long.
Crazy the headline differences "Trump to pass the Reupublican memo!!" .....after changes/revote.
Vs "Trump blocks Democratic Memo!!"....but is reporting he will release it with changes/revote.
Same thing essentially but different wording. Up to them to get it up to par.

Differences...
Trump was ready to release the memo before he saw it. FBI and CIA advised him NOT to release it, he did anyway,.
Suddenly he is concerned now since it is the Democrats memo...

Of course they did, it implicated they were involved in setting up this bullshit Russia story.

You disputed nothing in my post nor shown a reason why they should be treated differently then the Republicans. Trump didn't release it immediately. You can say he was "ready" to all you want, Mr. Schumer. Fact is it was sent back and revoted on as he has now done with the Democratic version. Now, go back and do your job so it can be released. He has also said he is ready to release the democratic version if it is done properly.
Republican version was released and no national security issues whatsoever were revealed so that was a made up point to begin with. Also, it was then called a "guy" by your people after being so scared/concerned to begin with. Can't have it both ways.
Suddenly, because it is a democratic memo you believe that rules should not apply. That is the norm for the party I guess. Nothing in my post was refuted except by dancing around the issue again. Couldn't even answer which part you disagreed with and a legitimate reason why as the reason you presented is invalid due to what actually happened. Dance, dance, dance.

After the House Intelligence Committee voted this week to release a Democratic rebuttal to the Nunes memo, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders assured us that the White House would be evenhanded. “As stated many times,” Sanders said, “the administration will follow the same process and procedure with this memorandum from the minority as it did last week, when it received the memorandum from the majority.”
That is simply not what happened.
The White House announced Friday night that it would not immediately approve the release of the Democratic memo. It instead instructed Democrats to work with the Justice Department to adjust the memo so that it could be released publicly.
It's entirely possible this won't make a huge difference in the memo's content and impact. But let's be clear: This is not how the White House treated the Nunes memo.
When it was confronted with a decision about whether to release that memo, it did so over the objections of the FBI. The FBI publicly objected to the Nunes memo's release, suggesting the document left out key facts and was misleading. “As expressed during our initial review, we have grave concerns about the material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy,” the FBI said in an extraordinary public rebuke.
And even before all of that — and before he had even reviewed the memo — Trump and the White House made clear they would release the GOP memo. Trump told a Republican lawmaker after his State of the Union address Jan. 30 that he would "100 percent” release the memo.
In this case, by contrast, the White House wasn't nearly so eager to commit to a memo's release and is now suggesting it is bowing to concerns from the very same federal law enforcement entities whose objections it disregarded last time. It will argue that it is just handling classified information with care, but it did not demonstrate that level of care last week when it forced through the Nunes memo.
That memo sought to argue that law enforcement had abused its surveillance capabilities in the monitoring of former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. It argued that the application to monitor Page via a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant misleadingly failed to disclose that evidence used from the Steele dossier had been paid for by Democrats.
The Nunes memo has been widely criticized, and Democrats have argued that a key claim — that then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe said the Steele dossier was vital to the FISA application — simply isn't true. (The memo doesn't directly quote McCabe's comments, which came in a closed-door Intelligence Committee hearing but instead paraphrases him.) The memo also seemed to undermine its own claims by pointing out that the Russia investigation began months before the Steele dossier was used in the FISA application. Despite this, some Republicans have suggested that the Steele dossier was a predicate for the investigation — a suggestion aimed at undermining the broader Russia probe that is currently imperiling the White House.
Having said all of this, could it simply be that the Democratic memo contains more sensitive classified information than the Nunes memo did? Sure. (Although it bears noting that Intelligence Committee Republicans did unanimously vote for its release.) Is it possible there will be only minor changes? Sure. And it would sure seem that the Justice Department would want to make certain that the Democratic memo still does a good job countering some key claims from the Nunes memo, given how federal law enforcement's reputation is on the line.
But with all of this happening behind closed doors, we simply don't know.
What we do know is that the White House didn't treat these memos the same, as it promised it would.
