Donald Trump Jr. Demands Release of FISA Memo
PJ Media ^ | 01-19-2018 | Michael van der Galien

Posted on 01/19/2018 11:24:59 PM PST by Michael van der Galien

Friday night, Donald Trump Jr. joined the growing choir calling on the United States Congress to release the FISA memo that has Congressional Republicans saying that people are "going to jail."

Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com

"I don't know what's in it," the president's oldest son told Tucker, "but if all of these guys are saying people's heads are going to roll, people may get fired and people may actually go to jail. I think the American people deserve to know."

He added on Twitter:

[TWEET]

Democrats have all voted against all members of Congress getting permission to read the memo, however, which means they won't even contemplate releasing the memo to the public. Clearly, there is something in the memo that has Democrats in overdrive to protect their party and former President Barack Obama.

If the memo is truly so shocking, President Trump can choose to simply declassify and release it.

Maybe DT Jr just promised more than can be delivered and that’s what the Dems were waiting for.

1) It would be racist to release the memo.

/s

2) Trump: Release the memo, and I'll release all "Area 51" memos.

Without even reading this I say it would be dangerous. That could fit into charges the House could bring for impeachment. Irresponsible actions for a Commander-in-Chief, etc.

Just releasing the single memo would be the safest, even if he had to redact an item.

It was only 10 months ago that Democrats and the MSM was asking for Trump to support his claim that he was “wiretapped”

Now they don’t want to hear about it. Imagine that?

I think because it was created as the result of a Congressional investigation it may involve Seperation of Powers and not under hid control.

In a statement, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee, called the report “a profoundly misleading set of talking points drafted by Republican staff attacking the FBI and its handling of the investigation."

"Rife with factual inaccuracies and referencing highly classified materials that most Republican Intelligence Committee members were forced to acknowledge they had never read, this is meant only to give Republican House members a distorted view of the FBI," Schiff said. "This may help carry White House water, but it is a deep disservice to our law enforcement professionals."

OK Adam Sch*t, why don't you agree with the GOP to realease the memo so we can all judge for ourselves?

Exactly. Much like most things Hannity gets jazzed about, this is a nothing burger.

If it was just Hannity you’d be right. But in this case, it involves some very blunt and direct statements from reputable members of Congress, too.

...there is something in the memo that has Democrats in overdrive to protect their party and former President Barack Obama...

Four full pages of “something” very damaging to lunatic, subversive Democrats.

Release the Memo. Now

A nothing burger with so many congressmen demanding it be released? I don’t think so.

DJT, JR: "Democrats all voted against letting Congress read the memo which means they won't even contemplate releasing the memo to the public. Clearly, Democrats are in overdrive to protect their party and ex-Pres Barack."

Methinks the real damaging activity of the Obama Police State spy team is that it spied on DEMOCRATS. Sophmoric Obama, like a pimply-faced schoolboy, had to know what they were saying about him behind his back. And he also needed intel to blackmail Democrats into voting for his cockamamie policies.

==============================================

POINTS TO PONDER: The single-mindedness of the "party of the people" also suggests the crass anti-Americanism of the Dims. As usual, they put the party's interests in more power and votes above the interests of everyday Americans.

Americans need to decide if this is a party they want to belong to.

Just an average day in the Obama Police State---
"Susan the Sifter" gets her orders for the day.

"Susan, as you sift through the intel, get me something
damaging on Penguin books so I can shake them down for
a lucrative book deal."

"And get Harvey Weinstein's tax returns. Malia needs a job."

"Oh, and Lois over at IRS needs intel to target conservatives' tax-exempt status.

And don't forget the FBI files on Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer."
