I wanna know WHO the judge was & WHO presented it to the judge as legitimate U.S. Intelligence instead of what it really was.

NO JUDGE hands out FISA warrants on opposition research papers.

And if they do...they should be hanged.

The Captain is responsible for the conduct of his crew. The responsibility falls on Comey. ..

It does show they didn't have much to go on besides the dossier. That it was paid for by the DNC looks bad, as does that the payment wasn't documented as such. The optics are that they tried to get away with something. We shall see what develops from here. Not nothing, but I expected more about those involved. Investigations will continue...

The memo itself says the investigation started well before the dossier was involved. it establishes that Steele was well respected by the intelligence community. He wasn't paid by the DNC, he was paid by Fusion.

I think the memo really hurts Trump in the long run, especially when they prove Nunes was working with the white house in putting it out.

The optics of not allowing the Democratic memo to come out at the same time look pretty bad as well.

A huge nothing burger

Does that stand for Trump and all the lying about Russian contacts that has occured with this administration?

It would be interesting to hear from the judge who approved the warrant, if he/she would have done so if the bureau would have told about the back story of the dossier, and who funded it...I think that is where the bureau went rogue. Certainly the judge didn't know the author was hell bent on keeping Trump from being elected...

4 judges approved warrants along the way. no way they get an extension unless the first warrant bore fruit. Just do some research and you'll find that there's no way what Nunes is saying is the total truth. 4 judges and 5 Ag's. YUGE CONSPIRACY.

as for what Steele allegedly said, it's heresay. why does a British dude give that many ***** about our election? I don't believe dick that Nunes claims. he is a hyper-partisan hack that was on the transition team and should be recused from anything trying to prove the transition did or didn't do anyting
illilegal. not to mention, that memo is 5th grade work

memo was started by republicans

Anti repubs dropped out when they found nothing

Steele told Ohr he would do anything to keep Trump from being elected

Steele was paid by the DNC through FUSION lawyer Ohr. Wife of FBI Ohr.

Memo frees TRUMP. Investigation must now turn to Hillary and Obama.

Dems can come out with their memo as soon as they clear the same terms the Republicans had to go through to release theirs.

This guarantees 8 years of TRUMP!

Why brit cares? $10 MILLION plus he hates Trump. Win Win for brit dude.

Libs and Dems get their ***** kicked again.

I've never seen them this angry or unhinged from reality before. A new low.

Hahahahahaha, what a desperate hail mary this **** is. Reading it is hilarious.

White House officials and former Trump campaign aides embroiled in the Russia investigation could soon see their legal bills covered by an outside legal fund.

Outside lawyers created a limited liability company called the Patriot Legal Expenses Fund Trust, which will raise money from donors to pay legal expenses for multiple individuals, according to emails between those attorneys and a government agency.
A handful of White House officials are already in line to receive funding, a source familiar with the deliberations told CNN.
The email exchange, which includes a draft agreement to establish the pool, was posted on the Office of Government Ethics website Thursday night. It describes the framework for the pool, which will "pay for or help defray legal expenses, which can include attorneys' fees, court filing fees, litigation costs or other related fees and costs," according to the document.

Attorney Robert Walker with Wiley Rein, the firm that represents the fund, declined CNN's requests for comment on Friday.


LOL, GOFUNDME for criminals.

As it is, it's all he said she said. Let's release the democrat's memo and McCabe's testimony.

Yes. But you have a guy like Manafort, who did some shady things prior to working for Trump. I wouldn't put a noose around Donald's neck for that. Same if he wasn't aware of what Flynn was doing in regards to Turkey. If it turns out Trump knew about the supposed wrongdoing, then he implicated himself.

I would think Comey or pay grades above him had to have known something regarding the request to surveill Page.

The FBI did not come clean when requesting the warrant. Spying on a Presidential candidate's campaign officials with perhaps sketchy evidence, especially with the opponent involved, at least indirectly, looks bad. And we know from Donna Brazile that HRC had taken over custody of the DNC finances...blaming Russia would be a convenient way to deflect attention, yes?

We know much from what has been written, but we don't know all the facts. If we did, it would be less likely that both sides were confident in their position on this...

I'l reply more later. just got to Vegas. you suckas have a great weekend.

I am wondering how much attention a Republican financed dossier used to surveill the Clinton campaign would get from the media? Or would they instead spend 24/7 talking about Uranium One and the Clinton Foundation slush fund? Perhaps in an alternative universe...
