I guess a silver lining about all this is we get to learn more about how our government works.
Like, for example, that all of the current FISA judges were appointed as such by that well known libtard deep stater Chief Justice John Roberts? Oh man, this must go really deep!
Here's the problem I have with the memo. Who is telling the truth? I suspect neither side at this point. If the memo is true, it is kind of troubling. However, there is nothing behind what the memo is alleging. There's no source. Nothing to make it believable.
Yup. In my line of work when someone says a wrong has been committed, they file a motion. They spin their chosen facts, apply their chosen law while ignoring contrary law.
Then the other side does the same thing.
Then an objective third party weighs the evidence against the law and says yes or no.
What we have here is the first act above only.
I'd no sooner believe a Nunes (ok, staff) written memo than I'd believe a Pelosi written memo

yes on all that, the problem is that we may not see the dem memo (they will probably see no reason after the reception this partisan piece gets), and will not see anything in the way of the FBI being transparent. That last bit is the real problem; with the FBI known for over-classifying documents, FISA courts being used what appears to be excessively (bypassing the normal warrant process) and no real congressional oversight, no way to get at the truth, they have utter control of everyone in every way. The IG is our only hope for some sunlight. Speaking of which, the left is usually all for spilling govt secrets, and libertarians are usually very much for sunlight to ensure govt is operating uprightly. All these folks seem really quiet, and that's the real danger of having a guy so widely hated as POTUS.
