Adam BullSchiff wasted no time getting in front of a camera to make a statement and had to read it.
That's odd. Normally he has the BullSchiff right on his lips ready to go.

You've already been schooled on the definitions of informant and spy.
No one in here has been schooled on the definitions of informant and spy.

They just burp up what their heros tell them, you know, Chucklebuckets Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, egghead Clapper, Brennan, Comey...

They're all trying to stand in front of their Messiah, Obama.

Didn't Comey go on Conan O'Brien the other night to flap his gums about this scandal?

What, was the Food Network already booked?

My phone battery is dying.

To be continued...

According to sources, Nunes, Gowdy, and the Gang of 8 did not receive/view the classified documents that have been requesting.

And if I were you, I would be very careful believing/quoting Adam Schiff. Isn't this the same guy who said months ago that the House Intelligence Committee found loads of evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians? If so, were is this information? This is also the same guy that got into a hissy fit when the Republican 4 page memo claimed that McCabe said under oath that the FBI would have never sought a FISA warrant without the dossier, yet when he released his 10 page memo, he failed to refute this very point he called misleading or false.
Yes from what I understand they didn't get the classified documents they wanted from a live investigation, good for them. Schiff did indicate there were Russian connections to the Trump campaign several moths ago, we will see how that turns out. I understand they were briefed on how the informant was used.


Still the silence from Nunes is very surprising particularly in light of Schiff's statement.

McConnell said there was no there there. Nunes and trump over-hyped this whole spy nonsense and it backfired. SNAFU for this administration.

No, there was widespread surveillance of the Trump campaign, and so far there has been no credible evidence provided to justify such surveillance.

The Trump haters tried the same absurd dismissals after the wiretap tweet, and look where at now, even the NYT, and WaPo admitting to widespread surveillance of the Trump campaign.

Sorry, but SpyGate isn't going away.

Pssst - it already fizzled away. It's past tense fake news. Fox and Trump are still trying to keep it alive, but it's not working. Bwahahaha.

Look. Even old Turkey-Neck McConnell said there's no there there.

No, he said he had nothing to add after attending the briefing, and that he supported the Inspector General investigation into the spying.


McConnell told NPR that Mueller's investigation and a separate probe by the Justice Department's inspector general into the FBI's actions during the 2016 election will ultimately provide answers to a number of questions swirling around the presidential race.

"I support both of them, and I don't really have anything to add to this subject based upon the Gang of Eight briefing that we had today, which was classified."

This will be yet another conspiracy put by the wayside, I'm sure that Nunes is already working on the next one.

I'm sorry if these basic concepts are eluding you, but in actuality

1. The DOJ is supposed to be working covertly, not publicly.
2. The president is not supposed to have any say in what they're doing, especially not if it relates to him.
