Now the more sane Republicans are backing away from the Nunes memo. Senate GOP leader cautions Nunes on FBI memo | TheHill

The Nunes memo was clumsily designed to slander the FBI and to bolster Trump by using cherry-picked facts, exaggerations and falsehoods.

In the end, the memo will prove most useful as evidence used by Mueller to indict Nunes for obstruction of justice. Nunes has created a smoking gun against himself. That's why the rest of the GOP are backing away.

Because he was a part of the transition team, he should recuse himself altogether from investigations involving the President and his staff.
This is a pretty good example of the desperation from the left.

All this silly whining about the memo exhibits their fear, they are looking for any reason to oppose the memo, no matter how absurd.



One thing is for sure, if this memo was nothing, easily brushed off as false, or fake, there would not be all of this outright panic going on from the left, and the msm.

Rush also asked an obvious question: If Trump is guilty of collusion and obstruction why are the Dems so afraid of having this memo exposed? Wouldn't the FBI be eager and proud?

What I don't want to happen is dumping this story on the weekend when it will get lost... although, it would be great for the Sunday political shows. Elite media always protect their DNC masters so they will probably dismiss and ignore the memo.

I wonder how many Dems will announce they won't run for re-election after the memo is released.
If Trump is innocent - why are the Republicans so afraid of the Mueller investigation? Why all the machinations trying to release classified information, etc?

Republicans are running scared.

The sheer number of Republicans stepping down and not running for reelection is quite staggering.

Nunes is actively obstructing justice to protect Trump. He is totally abusing his position as head of the House intelligence committee.

Oh, please!

He did not "collude" with the White House! Why is it that you Leftists see "collusion" in everything, but refuse to admit Hillary was working with the Russians to craft the phony "dossier?"

Rush was just talking about this moments ago. Nunes did not work with the White House at all in putting together this summary of the investigation.

Democrats are so scared of what this memo contains that they will do everything possible to try to discredit it.

Actually, I thought it was a pretty concise explanation of the federal government from an American Civics standpoint. It really does seem that many Americans don't understand the balance of power that defines our system of government.

Default Transcript Shows The Daily Beast Peddled Fake News About Devin Nunes

Uh-oh libsters, more fake news from The Daily Beast.

From The Federalist -

Once again, reporters got burned by believing anonymous Democrats on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

Betsy Woodruff and Spencer Ackerman of The Daily Beast credulously believed their “sources familiar with the exchange,” who said Republican Rep. Devin Nunes, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, refused to deny he had coordinated with the White House when putting together a memo alleging surveillance and law enforcement abuses at the FBI

Anonymous most likely means Adam Schiff working overtime time to protect Hillary and BHO. Wouldn't that be something to see the two of them perp walked?

Yes, they are so scared that they are exposing the corruption that was rampant in the Obama administration.

But yeah, you're right, they should allow a criminal conspircy to create a fraudulent investigation to spy on Trump, and undermine his administration.

Yeah, we should all support such an investigation.

I'll throw it back at you, if the FBI/DOJ, and the Obama administration are innocent, why do you oppose them being investigated?

One thing for sure, if this Mueller investigation was nothing - easily brushed off as false, fake, or partisan, there would not be all this outright panic in the WH.

Trump would NOT be in a war with his own FBI.

Trump would NOT be in a war with his own CIA.

Trump and his cronies are simply doing damage control before the truth gets out.
