Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and fellow congressional Democrats are ratcheting up the pressure on President Trump to release to Democrats’ version of Republicans’ so-called FISA memo, in the interest of “full transparency.”
The New York senator and others made their plea Sunday, two days after Republican leaders of the House Intelligence committee released their memo, which alleges “abuses” by the FBI and Justice Department when requesting a surveillance warrant from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, or FISA court, on then-Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
“I believe it is a matter of fundamental fairness that the American people be allowed to see both sides of the argument and make their own judgements,” Schumer said.
The GOP memo alleges the warrant was requested by the two federal agencies based, at least in part, on a largely unsubstantiated anti-Trump dossier financed by Democrats.

So submit via the standard procedures. If there’s no reason for it to be classified, the president will declassify then you can do what you want with it.
THE PRESIDENT DIDN’T RELEASE THE GOP MEMO. THE COMMITTEE DID.
they can issue any rebuttal they want... why do they need permission?
They want to make it LOOK LIKE trump wants to hide theirs
Lying, rudeness, disrespect, and conspiring to commit treason have consequences Chucky.
Why not cut to the chase, and just release the application for the FISA warrant in its entirety? I very much doubt there’s any information in there that is genuinely sensitive to national security.
It will be nothing but whining about how Trump is a meany.
“Shut Up, Chuck!”
Release it through proper congressional channels! If there’s nothing classified in it, PDJT doesn’t have to lift a finger.
What a Putz. But, we already knew that! ;)
So the dems have a fake memo to go with the real one from last week?
Exactly, and they’ve been fiercely giving their rebuttal but it’s not working so their going to whine now trying to involve President Trump.
Never give your enemies tools to hurt you.
Why does Chuck Schumer have a tampon string hanging out of his ass?
Thanks for pic.
Directly over target.
Dems Fake FISA Memo ,LOL
President Trump should say he totally agrees, it’s a shame the Dems waited so long to start the process, but as soon as it goes through the same steps the first memo went through he’s sure it will be released as soon as possible. He should tell Senator Schumer he shares his angst about the Dems being so late to the gate, but he has no control over it
Forget the memo. Just release the documents.
Support Free Republic, Folks!
They want to include classified info in their memo.
Trump never “ released “ the other memo.
That was up to congress
Let Adam Shifty, Shutdown Schumer and Shithead ( Pelosi) send that little work of fan fiction up to the white hats in See Aye Aaa and Enn Ess Aaa for review and redaction then let Congress do its vote thing
