[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

Shocking and worse than Watergate. But is it a Bombshell? Inquiring minds want to know.

We will soon see just how deep and corrosive the corruption was in the Obama administration and in the HRC campaign.

Unfortunately, it is all too apparent that the cover up continues to this very moment.

It is somewhat ironic that the release of the FISA memo will definitively reveal the existence of a Vast Left Wing Conspiracy.

The sad thing is that a solid 35% of the lectorate won’t care about any of this and would vote D anyway.

I think what we have here is evidence of an attempted bureaucratic coup detat. Get the rope out.

This is nothing short of a coup attempt.
Trump needs to seal the borders, unilaterally declassify the report, and call in JSOC or the 82nd Airborne to DC to quell this insurrection.

I want tanks rolling down DC and operators dragging out swamp creatures in hoods.

I share the frustrations of waiting for the shoe to drop.

Do not despair.

Compare what we know today with what was publicly known July 2016.

The news since July 2016 has exposed high level government corruption.

More to come. Be patient.

OK, time for truth.

To whom were the cabal of FBI Black hat conspirators responsible?

The elected Government of Barack Obama or the unelected shadow government of Hillary Clinton?

“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.”

Yup, but to quote someone infamous -
“no controlling legal authority”

*************

Another sleazy Democrat. For those who may not remember, Sandy Berger of the Clinton administration stole top secret documents from the National Archives. He was caught and subsequently lied to investigators yet never spent a moment in prison.

Exactly. Wake me up if/when some democrat scumbag actually gets investigated, charged, convicted, and sent to prison. Until then GOP, you’re just hot air. Make something happen RINOs - or you’re out too!
