[FULL TITLE] ‘Worse Than Watergate’: ‘Shocking’ House Intel Memo Allegedly Reveals FISA Abuse by Senior DOJ and FBI Officials

Members of the House on Thursday said they viewed a “shocking” classified memo allegedly detailing abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) by senior Justice Department and Federal Bureau of Investigations officials in relation to the investigation of the Trump campaign and called for it to be declassified and available to the public immediately. “It’s troubling. It is shocking,” Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) told Fox News. “Part of me wishes that I didn’t read it because I don’t want to believe that those kinds of things could be happening in this country that I call home and love so much.”

“The facts contained in this memo are jaw-dropping and demand full transparency. There is no higher priority than the release of this information to preserve our democracy,” said Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), a member of the Judiciary Committee, which oversees the DOJ and the FBI.

Another Judiciary Committee member, Rep. Steve King (R-IA), called what he saw in the memo “sickening” and said it was “worse than Watergate.”

Steve King ✔ @SteveKingIA - I have read the memo. The sickening reality has set in. I no longer hold out hope there is an innocent explanation for the information the public has seen. I have long said it is worse than Watergate. It was #neverTrump & #alwaysHillary. #releasethememo 9:32 PM - Jan 18, 2018 · Washington, DC 3,534 3,534 Replies 26,388 26,388 Retweets 35,880 35,880 likes

Americans...you will soon witness the dirty hands of Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, the FBI leadership, etc. All of them “avid Haters” of the free American Republic.

What, know leaks of the memo?

I guess Adam Schiff doesn’t like what’s in it.

I am holding my breath for the media to care about actual wrong doing.

Thanks for posting this. The only hope is that we can get a mainstream rag to cover the story and force the hand of Congress. It is critical that people take a moment and call the office of their congressmen or congresswomen. If it is as damning as the people that have viewed it say, would not the media be well served financially to get it out? Can you imagine the viewership of Watergate 2018.

Oh really?
Gowdy will hold some hearings and write some tough letters.
Grassley will go wild and hold some hearings and write some tough letters.

Sessions will wake up from his nap and bust a kid for having a lid of weed. And then go back to sleep.

And then NOTHING WILL EVER HAPPEN, just like always.

The decision to declassify is Trump’s, isn’t it?

Excuse me, this is all bullsh$%. You CAN NOT Classify evidence to cover up a Criminal Act. Screw the memo, we want ALL THE DOCUMENTS!!

They are all “evidence” in a Criminal Conspiracy and we demand the Truth.

The media is ideologically driven. They are the true believers. They work to advance the liberal agenda.

You can be sure that they have contigency stories ready to go to distract the public from this threat to our democracy.

The liberal media is the vanguard for the Left.

The MS-Mockingbird-M receives their instructions
before 5AM. They were paid, and they deliver
lies to the American People.

How is that consistent with having an FCC license?

Drudge is still sleeping.

Only when he gets too tired from counting the millions that pour in from his website. He doesn't want to do anything to interrupt that cash flow.
