How much do you want to bet?

Posted on 01/22/2018 8:51:48 AM PST by Scooter100

Want to bet that the famous FISA "Memo" will become a bargaining chip in the govt shutdown, i.e.,---> The Shutdown will be lifted ONLY if the "Memo" is NEVER released.

If there’s criminal activity, then wouldn’t that be obstruction and/or blackmail is used that way? If it’s “looks bad” but isn’t criminal or illegal, then it may be a bargaining chip.

Not a chance.

This is a train that cannot be stopped. And it has nothing to do with the budget.

A similar ending of “They Died with their Boots On” never sat right with me.

How about this instead: "lift the shutdown, fund the border wall, eliminate birthright citizenship, end chain migration and the visa lottery, rescind the 1965 Immigration Act, and then we MIGHT not release the memo."

Then, after the above checklist is complete, release it anyway.

Call your Congressional reps office and request they send you a copy. I did. It was a fun conversation.

Perhaps, but if Republicans would bargain on such a threat to the Republic by a previous Democrat Administration's defenders, then they do not deserve to claim the title!

Oh, no no no. Memo MUST be released; no negotiation.

I have been saying since last week that the memo will never see the light of day. The congress will NEVER do anything that would cut their own throats—and this is just one example of how none of them are for anything other than keeping their jobs.

Every few years they change the curtains, but the crap in the house doesn’t change.

A four-page report isn’t going to convict anyone, and the DOJ already has the underlying documents/testimony. Shutdown is irrelevant to it. The memo isn’t that important once the MSM/DNC unify on their response to it.
