Not sure why you’d be having that problem...maybe copy the tweet to Notepad or other text editor (removes all hidden formatting) and then copy & paste from Notepad?

Whoever attended/had knowledge of the meeting, and the content of the meeting, is the leaker. That could be more than just the directors. It could be numerous staff.

It was a set up. Had they gone they would have been accused of leaking the name of the mole to the press. Deep State plays hardball.

repeating nothing 4 times, above.

Nunes said recently on fox news that he was glad he and Gowdy did not go because the NY Times article and leaks were the same night, and he was sure that if they had gone they would have been blamed for the leaks.

I realized just then that this is war.

I’ve heard others say it and honestly I thought it was people overreacting or being melodramatic

The 4 am Friday talking points send out were to attack the Republicans about leaking the Stefan Halper spy name to set a trap for Nunez and Gowdy, to claim the information was accessed during this Meeting at the DOJ.

Unfortunately for the Cabal, Nunez and Gowdy were given a heads up and didn’t go to the set up Meeting.

Meanwhile, the leaks from FBI/DOJ to the NYT and Washington Compost had already been sent and were off to the printer by the time the meeting was cancelled.

OOPS, someone stepped on their PEE PEE...

Chairman Nunes appeared on Fox News’ Sunday Futures with Maria Bartiromo and told her “We’re not going to go to another meeting where we don’t get documents and then the meeting leaks out. This should make people very suspicious – they were trying to get Mr. Gowdy & I to go on Friday to the Justice Department for supposedly another briefing.”

“I realized just then that this is war.”

Yes, it is, and it’s been going on for decades. If it had not been for Donald J. Trump, this country may well have been doomed to end up a “democratic socialist state” like the turd countries in Europe at best. To think I gave money to men like John McCain and the Booshes, not realizing just what criminals they all are. And to think I hated Slick Willie, and yet his biggest failing was that he ran around the White House with his fly open! Just think of the real $hit we’ve had as President since before WWII. FDR, Eisenhower (who just played a lot of golf), Nixon, LBJ Cahatah (who is a Commie), Ford (who was an idiot), finishing off with the Booshes, Cliton, and the Magic Negro. Only RR saved us from nearly a century of failed leadership, and we look at banana republics and snear at them! The Second Amendment is all the more important now in making sure we don’t get a Maduro.

I wonder if the ranking members of each of the two
committees were invited or notified? Suppose Nunes and
Gowdy had suggested to each of their ranking members
that they attend the meeting?

It is also a spiritual war which is acknowledged by the White House thru Q. Last post [GEAR UP!]

“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.”
– Ephesians 6:10-18

Then they would have tried to sideline Nunes and/or put an independent counsel on him

@huldahl776
Sounds to me like someone is psyching up for a real tribulation. :(

@bankwalker
This is not our fight. Not on the battlefield anyway, because that battlefield exists in court rooms and marble halls. Janes and Joes on some online forum are not equiped to fight it, nor are they trained for it, except to offer their support for the lawfully elected representatives who we can only pray will do the right thing.

Did you forget Elian Gonzalez, the Branch Davidians, Randy Waver, China, etc?

The FBI seems to have become the Federal Bureau of Entrapment

They should have their name changed to make the initials FBE

Yup. Content free click-bait posts are annoying.
