The Grassley-Graham memo corroborates the claims in the Nunes memo: The Obama Justice Department and FBI used anonymously sourced, Clinton-campaign generated innuendo to convince the FISA court to issue surveillance warrants against Carter Page, and in doing so, they concealed the Clinton campaign’s role. Though the Trump campaign had cut ties with Page shortly before the first warrant was issued in October 2016, the warrant application was based on wild allegations of a corrupt conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. Moreover, the warrant meant the FBI could seize not only Page’s forward-going communications but any past emails and texts he may have stored — i.e., his Trump campaign communications.
With its verification by the Grassley-Graham memo, the Nunes memo now has about a thousand times more corroboration than the Steele dossier, the basis of the heinous allegations used by the Justice Department and FBI to get the FISA warrants.
...
The Grassley-Graham memo tells us that we need not only a full-blown investigation of what possessed the Obama administration to submit such shoddy applications to the FISA court, but of how a judge — or perhaps as many as four judges — rationalized signing the warrants.

The heat just got turned up a little higher.
So, you're saying.... wild and unfounded accusations have no place in government?
I have no problem with investigating possible wrong doing of any presidential campaigns, WH administration staff, or any President.
Including the current President, campaign members, and administration staff.
Democrat. Republican. Makes no difference. If wrongdoing is suspected on either side, investigate and, if necessary, let the Judicial branch (i.e. Federal courts) determine what evidence is admissible, and who is or is not guilty or innocent. Let the chips fall where they may.
I can't imagine why any American would have a problem with that, including our current President.
There was already a thread on this, the memo was a few days ago. Why didn’t the National Review just provide a link to the memo so we could decide for ourselves, besides the Schiff memo will indicate that the Steele dossier was unverified as presented to the judge in addition from someone politically motivated. So what’s the point.

Jeff Sessions is waiting for the IG report, with baited breath, before making a move.
One thing for sure, people a lawyering up.
