Here's the memorandum. There's basically nothing in it which wasn't already known to the public and which right wing news hasn't already been hammering on for months. http://apps.washingtonpost.com/g/documents/national/read-the-gop-memo/2746/?hpid=hp_hp-top-table-main_memolink-1219pm%3Ahomepage%2Fstory

I feel its sad that America is resorting to dick waving on the level of tin pot dictators. What happened to moving a carrier fleet within striking distance or playing submarine tag or writing putin suxs on the krimlin?

So are they saying they have to know the political leanings of sources before they can approve warrants? Is that even legal?

Make it a full yield test and film it with as many 4K and 8K cameras as possible, and it would be worth it.

Wow, I was expecting a nothing burger, but I didn't even get the burger. What a loving flop of a memo, Nunes is desperate.

Cliff notes please?

Defenestrategy posted:Cliff notes please? Rosenstein signed off on an extension of a FISA warrant that had the Steele Dossier as a reason (no other justifications for the FISA warrant are listed, even though the FBI and Democrats have said there were numerous other justifications). Also Steele was fired as an informant and maybe told someone that he didn't like Donald Trump. Also someone's wife worked for someone who didn't like Trump. Oh yeah and Fusion GPS. So basically nothing that hasn't already been beaten to death over the last 4 months. I think the only reason it was classified TS was because it had names and discussed a TS document (the FISA request). It didn't even include compartmented intelligence, and I'm almost 100% certain the actual FISA request included IYAAYAS' favorite buttermales acronym, HCI. psydude fucked around with this message at 20:29 on Feb 2, 2018 |

Defenestrategy posted:Cliff notes please? Like there is literally nothing in it of substance. It's entirely trying to paint the investigation as tainted by clinton money from the start yet acknowledges in a footnote that investigations had began long before Steele wrote his first memo for Simpson.

My understanding about FISA warrants is basically "if you get a FISA warrant against you, you deserve it" considering the absolutely obscene amount of evidence you need to have before getting one. But yeah sure, the FBI cooked up a packet over lunch solely on the basis of an oppo researcher, whatever.

it owns that literally nothing is going to happen to Trump/GOP because of Mueller's investigation, which will probably be shut down in the near future anyway

I again want to point out the rage-inducing hypocrisy of the party of George W Bush condemning the FISA court process. Not that it matters because nothing matters and the GOP is stunningly blatant about being nakedly partisan while giving negative fucks about hypocrisy, but, hey, whatever. Gotta put it out there.

They had a call in show where a priest did hand-wringing for almost an entire segment on how many hail Marys and whatnot the caller needed to do while practicing the Devil's yoga.
