BREAKING: @FBI Director Christopher Wray and DOJ wants all names redacted from #FISAMemo putting pressure on White House and House Intelligence Committee, Government officials say ... is releasing names a threat to national security?

[semantic]

Ha ha, good reply. Yes, the intent is to drive the right insane with passion. Not one person on the right who tuned in to watch the SOTU is going to abandon Trump.

This is all about building up the pressure to the point of explosion.

Another what?

Well said Jim! 100% Treason and Sedition. We have seven years to prosecute this. I hope Sessions and other white hats are up to the task. At least 20-25 people go to jail in my book, including Hillary and Obama. If this doesn't happen, then it's up to We the People.

Geez, Laz.

[tennmountainman]

Who said anything about abandoning Trump?
I didn’t.

[zeugma]

Bullshit to the 10x power.

Amen. Fortunately the supporters of the surveillance state are getting to be thin on the ground here.

They don’t care about constitutional provisions, and nor should we.

Exactly. One we pulverize them into dust, we’ll set up some time in the distant future to ponder/discuss whether they deserve any of the constitutional protections they so happily stripped from us, almost permanently.

[Pravious]

If this is true, this guy needs to be fired immediately.

Rep. Jeff Duncan‏Verified account @RepJeffDuncan Follow Follow @RepJeffDuncan More FBI Calling for names to be “redacted” in “The Memo” defeats the purpose of “The Memo” in providing the transparency into the rogue actions of those named! Seems like FBI in total CYA mode after Wray read Memo

[CodeToad]

No!

Too many crimes are committed under the color of law. Legislators have forgotten that the government is OUR government, and that they serve at OUR pleasure. WE are the ones who put them there, and WE are the ones who can remove them. Not only have they forgotten who they’re answerable to, so have we!

National security is one thing, but protection of one’s political job is quite another. So is abuse of so called “national security”. They’re unwillingness to account to the nation IS in itself a breach of public trust and accountability. The democrat response stands as a perfect example of why that document needs to be uncovered and looked at by the people.

Combined with the flagrant disregard of OUR duly elected President, and for the people who also voted THEM into office, shows us who They are, and that they don’t belong in office.

Hiding under secrecy is misuse of the nation..which is the people. It’s the very definition of abuse.

"The next step would be that the committee votes to send the issue to the whole House. The House must take it up, and must deal with it. All the representatives go on record."

I hope you're wrong, but your case is well-stated.

I'm looking at it 180, that there are forces who want to prevent this release because the reaction will come up just short of angry mobs; that animus then safely channeled into a GOP Supermajority in both houses; and the obvious outcome as Trump could then nominate someone to Scotus so firmly conservative as a John Bolton - quite possibly 3 times in the next 2 years.

As we all know there are probably as many RINOs as Democrats that don't want a GOP Supermajority...

Therefore no one should want the House to vote on anything regarding this memo, oh lawd it would be all over cable 24/7 for the flood-the-zone Dem pontificatin' and such.

It's a high-clearance Committee issue, let the high-clearance Committee members wrangle, and let the alphabets dangle.

Rep. Matt Gaetz‏Verified account @RepMattGaetz Follow Follow @RepMattGaetz More Today I went to the Intelligence Committee to review the changes in the FISA memo and I can say there are no reasons to be concerned. This was merely a syntax change with almost no significance.

[Steve_Seattle]

They want a memo consisting of the words “and” and “the”, with everything else redacted.

[Crucial]

This really pisses me off.

[zeugma]

Too many people - here on FR and elsewhere - seem to think that this level of misconduct and abuse is a one-off event. It isn’t and it’s gotten worse over the course of my lifetime. Federal bureaucrats need to be held accountable.

Absolutely. Power without accountability is fertilizer for tyranny. Like you, I understand that this is not even an unusual occurrence. The rot is deep and pervasive at all layers. I'd like to see someone actually have to pay a price for once.

[Maris Crane]

You and I have our work cut out for us, Free.

[2harddrive]

Two answers: No! and HELL NO!!!

[sten]

tough to name names when there are no names

[Crucial]

Republicans need to talk to Diane Feinstein. She knows how to leak information.
