Republicans Accused of Altering Bombshell Memo: Shut Up and Release It

According to the the New York Post Adam Schiff (D) accuses Nunes(R) of ‘secretly altered’ potentially bombshell memo.

The ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee late Wednesday accused his Republican counterpart of pulling a bait-and-switch and sending a “secretly altered” version of a controversial GOP memo the White House.

ZeroHedge reports Nunes Hits Back Against FBI FISA Memo Freakout.

Is someone parading around a fake classified document?

Is this some sort of trap? On which party?

There are more questions than answers here. I have a simple suggestion.

Release the damn memo, and if there is more than one competing version, release them all, and all of the supporting documentation as well.

The more I see/hear about this whole debacle, the more I see Dabney Coleman and Charles Durning trying to Spy Vs. Spy each other in The Man with One Red Shoe.

Sechel says – @Mish . I see you reference zerohedge a lot. Are they really a credible news site?

Perhaps you prefer CNN?

Zerohedge is not a news site, they do not investigate and report, they regurgitate and editorialize. And do a damn fine job of it. Their commentators run the gambit from raging commies to right-wing morons (like me). They are mostly libertarians. They are far more “fair and balanced” than Fox News, which stinks, but is nevertheless the best of the worst of the major media.

While we are clamoring for the release of this memo, how about clamoring for the Democrats to release all of their secret memos, hearings, and phone conversations? That would be some interesting reading.

There is not one Democrat in Congress or running for the nomination that could survive 10% of the scrutiny that President Trump has received.

This is so incredibly boring – we know what the outcome will be. This is why I discontinued using cable. Neither the impeachment process or cable provide any information I can trust more than about 80%. It’s depressing.

Yeah, and whadabout…..? This kind of comment makes me sick . If Clinton did something wrong (and he probably did) how does that justify the illicit actions of future presidents? Are we going to give all of them a pass now on?

“There are those of you who rightly despise our sociopathic president” Trump has never been clinically diagnosed as a sociopath. By the way, Trump helped fund a medical mission to Haiti, whose purpose was to help restore the eyesight of some 200 people, according to Rand Paul. Trump definitely has compassion.

There are those of you who rightly despise our sociopathic president, and those who admire him, because he never suffers any pangs of conscience, is unburdened with archaic notions of compassion, and even fairness, who will do whatever he can get away with, without getting caught or punished. Those who admire our leader for
these qualities, (gee I wish I could do that) also despise the sociopath who lost the election, and for what reason? She just wasn’t good enough I suppose. She was caught to use the term. Getting caught is all that matters, in a newspaper where Robert Wagner and Natalie Wood are the story in sidebar. We still don’t know the truth, sociopaths rejoice, you can get away with it. Keep lying, half of America will always back you up.

Schiff is not only a pussy he’s an asshole. Typical democrat who refuses to acknowledge the facts. He a sycophant and never will admit the dems are a corrupt bunch of assholes using this as an agenda not to do their jobs, ie legislate and serve the country.

If Adam Schitt thinks The Memo has been altered, then he should be in favor of releasing it; then he can point out how it was altered. But until The Memo is released he can keep up his oral diarrhea m.o.l. unchallenged.

“We’ll know when his investigation is done.” No, his investigation will never be done. The purpose of his investigation is not to “be done.” The purpose of his investigation is to be an investigation – to provide an endless field for innuendo and a platform for scandal.

t want to be charged because the charges are misleading. The way it should work is release the memo and let the dems respond.

Trust? Who trusts politicians these days? The fake news is that they get elected by the people. The real news is that they take out tax dollars, pave a few roads to appease the people, and line their pockets with the rest. Yes I over exaggerate, they actually do more than pave a few roads. The rest is galled boondoggles.

“we’ll know what he has when his investigation is done. that’s how this stuff works or is supposed to work.” It didn’t work that way with Hillary. There is no trusting it going forward.

The Democratic Party is afraid of the truth. Remember, they colluded with the mainstream media against Trump.

You have had 5 separate investigations for close to a year now, how much time does it take to uncover something? another year maybe two? Piss or get off the pot already. If Trump is guilty of something lets have it. And if guilty jail him……but lets see the memo, the left is spinning this as hard as they can. Let the American people judge for themselves if the FBI and DOJ are doing nefarious things we all have a right to know.

Anybody not seeing the big picture here? We have the worlds largest economy with growing deficits, surging debt loads, overextended military crusades, an aging population (with escalating entitlement costs), massive bond and stock market bubbles, and it is not being governed at all! Too much pettiness and competition to be in power, but absolutely no interest in dealing with the multitude of problems heading our way.

Asinine? using FISA to surveil a political candidate. Asinine? the actions of Strzok and Page. Asinine? the actions of FBI director McCabe. Asinine? the squashing of classified emails found on Weiner’s laptop. Asinine? 12 months and five separate investigations and nothing has meaningful has surfaced. Let’s get it out and over with already.

Release the memo. Those that are accused cannot lead the investigation.

The alterations were typos, FBI requested change and Democrat disputed item. Schiff is watching his career crash and burn as he went to court to try to keep it secret – the man is a putz. Even if the memo is garbage it sure put Schiff’s incompetence in full view.
