NEW: Rep. Jamie Raskin, ranking Democrat on House Oversight, is so tone deaf re Russiagate corruption he can’t see the howling irony in his remarks about the FBI memo detailing alleged $5 million Biden bribe and the FBI’s supposed fidelity to predication rules for opening cases:
“What we’re talking about here is a confidential human source reporting a conversation with someone else. So we’re talking about is secondhand hearsay,” Raskin said, adding that the source “had no way of knowing about the underlying veracity of the things that he was being told”
“And they did whatever investigative due diligence was called for in that assessment period, and they found no reason to escalate it from an assessment to a so-called preliminary investigation,” added Raskin, ignoring how FBI escalated to FULL investigation of Trump based on less
Raskin continued: “FBI prosecutorial protocol is whether there are articulable facts giving rise to suspicion of criminal activity. So they apparently decided there was not, and they called an end to the investigation” —the opposite of how the FBI handled investigations of Trump
