Grassley-Graham Memo Affirms Nunes Memo — Media Yawns
National Review ^ | 2/10/2018 | Andrew McCarthy

Posted on 02/10/2018 4:49:48 AM PST by Rumierules

We need a full-blown investigation of how the FISA court came to grant warrants to spy on Carter Page.

In a word, the Grassley-Graham memo is shocking. Yet, the press barely notices. Rest assured: If a Republican administration had used unverifiable hearsay from a patently suspect agent of the Republican presidential candidate to gull the FISA court into granting a warrant to spy on an associate of the Democratic nominee’s campaign, it would be covered as the greatest political scandal in a half-century. *** We need full disclosure — the warrants, the applications, the court proceedings. No more games.

This reminds me of twe Wikileaks period of the campaign. The media attempted to yawn at the avalanche of corruption unearthed then, and they are doing the same now.

And here we sit waiting for indictments and someone to wake up the AG.

The media knows Hillary and her cohort should be in prison and wouldn't have any complaint if she was thrown there. "She was innocent!" would never fly. (That's not to say they wouldn't complain about the Republicans who wanted to throw her there. After all, Democrats' hate for Republicans is why they tolerate corrupt politicians to begin with.)

But to find a venue with a jury that could do it?

Every single Democrat in the U.S. would vote against conviction regardless of evidence. You could have video of her shooting Seth Rich dead and dancing on his corpse, and she would walk. Any Democrat would walk in this country for any crime (viz. Menendez).

The jury system is totally biased in favor of Democrats and therefore the prosecution doesn't bring cases against Democrats. What "no jury in America would convict" for is not a crime, according to the legal scholars.

I am really tired of the “if a Republican had done it” mantra. We know all about the socialists in the MSM. They’re as corrupt as hell so enough already. We currently have a majority in all three branches of government and if we can’t get Sessions to impanel a grand jury now, DJT needs to find someone who will. Political consequences be damned.

The Media may outwardly yawn. But inwardly, they are quaking. Poker face; stiff upper lip, and all that. EVERYTHING they nearly sold their eternal souls for, is beginning to crumble. I pray that at least SOME of them will repent before it’s too late.

To your point, I like the way McCarthy ends the article: “I was wrong.”

Andy, finally.....redeems himself somewhat with that statement. But he’s been obtuse to the point of ridicule this past year.

Thank God for the alternative media; otherwise, the msm would have deep sixed the whole thing. I find the idea that Carter Page may have actually been deep FBI undercover intriguing. Fox says he only contacted the Trump campaign after the FISA warrant was issued based on an investigation of him - this would enable bringing Trump staff conversations within the ambit of the authorized FISA wiretapping without Page having to wear a personal wire. The other thing I still find intriguing is why Mrs. Ohr, wife of the Asst. AG who promoted the Steele dossier to the FBI while she worked for Fusion AG - Mrs. Ohr got her ham radio license right after she started working for Fusion in May 2016. I wonder why - usually ham radio operators get into it as a hobby early in life - she waits until she’s in her 60s and all of a sudden, right after working with the Steele dossier, gets her license for a hobby she apparently never showed any interest in before???

“Political consequences be damned.”

You hit the nail right on the head. Without that attitude, nothing will change.

“Without a justifiable law enforcement or national security reason, the FBI created false facts so that they could get surveillance warrants. These are all crimes.”

There was a lawyer on Hannity last night (last name Terrell) who said this was the part of the memo that was classified - because it revealed the FBI’s methods - therefore the memo should not have been made public.

Mr. Terrell, by his own words, does not believe Americans have the right to know that the FBI can use false info in order to build a case against Americans.

Absolutely the truth.... AG Sessions must have been promoted to Trump by the other RINOs, who we need to be replaced by true conservatives in their next election. Hopefully, Trump will realize who is faithful, and who needs to go. Thanks.
