FISA Abuse Memo, prediction thread (update post 120 maybe)

[Ophydian]

What is it Page did. They had him tapped for how long? Where's all the damning evidence?

The dude has been pro Russia forever. A lot of people are Pro Russia. It doesn't mean they are traitors

I guess Flynn is innocent then?

 

[second sight]

lmao

The old "secret Muslim" play

Losing every facet of this argument, remember when you were defending the integrity of this process, turns out you were completely wrong and I nailed it

I definitely lost the HUSSEIN Obama part of the argument. His middle name is actually Hussein! omg

 

[Bamboozled]

You don't know any of the background information well enough to have an actual discussion. Read up, and come back when you have even a modicum of an idea as to what is going on.

Oh, so it's all fabricated then. Glad to see you're a reasonable poster.

Not to bring it back to the top but it’s nice to see this nothing burger memo thread falling and falling fast.

@bobgeese hahaha you must feel pretty damn stupid. This IS IT

Do you really think republicans are just going to drop this? Steve king just stated “look out for Obamas fingerprints on this”. The senate is also getting ready to release a memo. Wrongdoing found by Rosenstein, etc, etc.



Btw, how do I feel stupid? Remember, we’re the winners. I have more money in my pocket, and a safer country. My vote was well cast.

Ladies and gentlemen, The Nunes memo was a big fat nothing burger...

Coming soon the

"But..but..Obama Memo"

 

[Quipling]

Do you really think republicans are just going to drop this? Steve king just stated “look out for Obamas fingerprints on this”. The senate is also getting ready to release a memo. Wrongdoing found by Rosenstein, etc, etc.

So the first memo was a huge flop, and you're trying to cover for that by pointing towards similar future memos? But this one was supposed to be it! But I guess maybe the next one will be it. Or maybe the one after that. Or the one after that.

Or maybe they're also going to be obvious hackjobs that collapse as soon as someone outside the circlejerk reads them!

 

[Joe]

hahaha oh this Devin is really in deep for trump. He can't go back now.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Now, your committee, the House Intelligence Committee, has said they have a second memo planned for release -- this time about the State Department. What can you tell us about that?
REP. GOWDY: That that's news to me.
MARGARET BRENNAN: You didn't have a role in creating this memo?
REP. GOWDY: I don't think there is a memo about the State Department. The way I --
MARGARET BRENNAN: But Chairman Nunes has said that publicly.
REP. GOWDY: I think what-- I think what Devin said is there's a phase two of the investigation. And there is-- we do have concerns with a certain aspect of State Department involvement and have serious concerns about it. It's not been public yet. So I-- I-- I think what Chairman Nunes meant is there's--there's another aspect to the investigation. But if there's a second memo, I don't know about it.

Gowdy: Memo has no impact on Russia probe

Washington (CNN)South Carolina Republican Rep. Trey Gowdy said the recently released, controversial GOP memo alleging FBI abuses of its surveillance authority does not have "any impact on the Russia probe," and even without the Steele dossier, there would be a Russia investigation.

"There is a Russia investigation without a dossier," Gowdy said in an interview that aired Sunday on CBS's "Face the Nation," days after he announced his decision not to seek re-election.
President Donald Trump authorized the release of the memo from the House Intelligence Committee on Friday, and has since claimed it "totally vindicates" him in the ongoing investigation around allegations of possible coordination between his associates and Russia to influence the 2016 election.
Gowdy, however, said he believes the memo does not affect the Russia investigation and has no connection to key storylines about the matter.
"To the extent the memo deals with the dossier and the FISA process, the dossier has nothing to do with the meeting at Trump Tower," Gowdy said. "The dossier has nothing to do with an email sent by Cambridge Analytica. The dossier really has nothing to do with George Papadopoulos' meeting in Great Britain. It also doesn't have anything to do with obstruction of justice."
Lawmakers: Not 'vindication'
Gowdy was one of several lawmakers to say over the weekend that the memo did not vindicate the President.
Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin said on CNN's "State of the Union" that it is the duty of Congress to focus on the Russia investigation and not seek to absolve Trump. The Illinois Democrat also said the GOP memo spearheaded by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes would be "discredited" if a competing House Democratic memo becomes public.
"The information, the facts, tell a totally different story," Durbin said.

But @bobgeese knows more than Gowdy and Durbin and the rest.

He watches Fox News so he knows more lol

 

[Stokanator]

One thing I do know is regardless of what is contained in the document, despite all the efforts and stonewalling by the DNC to make sure it never sees the light of day, when it is revealed liberals will just find a way to claim its is incorrect and filled with inaccurate information!!!!

Clearly other folks in congress disagree.


Speaking purely politically, Trump now has enough allies, and the waters have been sufficiently clouded to block anything actually effecting Trump. I think you should look closely at the questions raised by Gowdy, notice none of those questions involved Donald Trump.


Do you really think republican lawmakers are going to buy an obstruction charge after all that is being revealed about the investigation?

Come on son..

I tried to skim all 18 pages but quite frankly I don't want to invest the time. Can anyone give my lazy arse the tl/dr version please? Thanks in advance.

Giant flop. GOP shoots themselves in foot by admitting the dossier had nothing to do with the opening of the investigation. Memo is completely misleading about the evidence used to get a wire on Carter Page, who was under surveillance as a suspected Russian agent before this investigation even started. Officials might not have informed the FISA court that the dossier was paid for by Republicans and Democrats, but instead only that the dossier was politically motivated.

This was compared to the American Revolution for its significance, by Team Trump.
