WTAF?
How does one go about becoming a ‘member’ of the FBI?
I'm not an expert on separation of powers, but I don't think the Executive branch can unilaterally alter a memo from the House committee.
By the time we see this FISA memo or not, it will be so airbrushed, redacted and altered, that it will be a nothing burger.
Have we been baited again?
If this is true, then the coup has been successful.
If there is any truth to this at all, I’d guess that what really happened is that Kelly asked them to mark up a copy of the Memo with whatever they objected to. I am releasing the Memo as they fixed it in this exclusive bombshell report:
The [redacted..............................................] FBI [redacted.......................], is {redacted........................] perfect and [page 3 redacted in its entirety] deserves [redacted.............] a [redacted..........] raise [redacted...........].
The end.
I hope this is true that the FBI altered the memo. Trump will then release both the altered and the unaltered and we can then know exactly what the FBI was most afraid of. I approve.
Apparently Trump has ZERO control over Executive Branch agencies.
Seems like a PURGE is in order.
If for example, the House memo quoted a secret agent in a hostile country, I can understand the FBI objecting and wanting the individual’s name redacted. However, this sounds like the FBI is concerned about its reputation and credibility with other intelligence and law enforcement agencies. If they lied to the courts about FISA warrants, so be it, even if that means individuals may be named in civil lawsuits by those spied upon.
A memo is a product of the originating office.
Now maybe Trump might get the message what is going around here. If he slips up now, he might be finished. Most of have been saying for a long time he is too busy with foreign stuff and ignoring what was going around.
Could be a bit of a trade for backing off on Flynn?
John Roberts is Shemp Smith’s buddy. I don’t believe a thing he says.
Nunes undoubtedly still has all of the original information, so any alterations by the FBI or anyone else is obstructing justice.
He could also hold more hearings, make them public, and subpoena people to testify under oath.
Doubt it:
1) Nunes has the original
2) They may have redacted a couple of names, but if it’s at all different than what Nunes has, he’ll start the process all over again.
3) Trump wouldn’t put up with this. He’s waiting for glow of SOTU to fade a little-—don’t step on your own good press.
Trump botched it. Nunes botched.
Shoulda released the memo ago.
I am sure someone here will say that Trump is playing 500D chess.

..Kelly let them in the door. He has to go— and he can take McMaster with him...
If they were mere technical corrections then it shows that the FBI is all about process and not about facts and justice.
It’s called muddying the water folks, or if you like, creating rabbit trails so no one knows what the truth really is.
