Nunes Statement on Release of HPSCI Memo [MEMO LINKED HERE]
House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence ^ | February 2, 2018 | Devin Nunes

Posted on 02/02/2018 9:45:28 AM PST by Cboldt

The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence today made public a committee memo with information on abuses of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Chairman Nunes issued the following statement:

"The Committee has discovered serious violations of the public trust, and the American people have a right to know when officials in crucial institutions are abusing their authority for political purposes. Our intelligence and law enforcement agencies exist to defend the American people, not to be exploited to target one group on behalf of another. It is my hope that the Committee's actions will shine a light on this alarming series of events so we can make reforms that allow the American people to have full faith and confidence in their governing institutions."

The memo is available here and here.

“Nunes is a national hero”
Right you are!!! He’s the first congress critter to actually DO SOMETHING beyond holding hearings and going back to doing nothing! I hope and pray SOMETHING will be done to punish these rogues all the way to the top!

You don't understand.

This is the official report of the Intelligence Committee of the US House of Representatives, summarizing some of the findings of the Inspector General of the (FBI and/or DOJ).

It is not "partisan accusations". AND a couple of top DOJ / FBI people said in public a couple days ago that there are no significant factual inaccuracies.

It's written in a way that even the normies can follow it.

Question I’m embarrassed to ask (but here goes): Even if the dossier was true, why would the (false) fact that Trump was in a room with prostitutes in Russia justify an investigation into election misdeeds? Thanks...

It goes much deeper.

Barack Obama should never have been in that position.

BOTH parties colluded to make the Kenyanesian Usurpation happen.

BOTH parties have been conspiring to keep the borders open and the laws unenforced.

This is only the beginning.
Obviously it will all come out in the future.

Gowdy backed Nunes all the way and got to ask the tough questions of Comey, Yates, etc etc.

Thanks boys...you did a good job.

Tough to believe there was an actual conspiracy to take down the Trump Camp by the people entrusted to protect us.

Comey should be prosecuted.

Tiger, remember many people only get their info from the MSM. This is news to them - how sad!

This is also not a real BOOM for FReepers.

I smell PROJECT VERITAS strategy.

Expect the Dems, MSM and FReeper Swamp Trolls to say “nothingburger,” “no big deal,” “nothing new,” etc.

Then more will come out, just like what Project Veritas does.

This is an information dissemination dance, not a dump.

Step by step, imo.

I’m very interested in what action(s) Sessions takes. There should be enough here now for him to unrecuse, remove Rosenstein and wrap up Mueller’s sham show.

Go TRUMP - MAGA
Go Melania aka Lady MAGA

Chris Wallace at Fox News sounds like a never-Trumper.

You are conflating the Page investigation with the Russian collusion investigation.

The Page investigation was supposedly to check for Page acting as a Russian agent. Period. That was a known false pretext necessary to get a court to endorse and authorize surveillance on Page. page is the key for the snooper to look inside the Trump campaign.

The allegation of the Trump campaign colluding with the Russians is an outcome or effect.

While illegally spying on Page, did 0bama & Co. intercept and unmask Trump’s communications?

Concern about blackmail?

He's an anti-Trumper, for sure. Not much different from Chuck Toad, Don Lemon, Van Jones, Forehead Begala, George Stephanopolis, Jake Tapper, et al.

I do not think the FISA judge needed much convincing.

Heh. well, the FBI will claim the snooping was legal, see this here warrant. But you raise a point that isn;t much talked about, that being how much snooping is going on WITHOUT a warrant.

Good chance that the FBI seeks a warrant AFTER it's illegal snooping uncoveres something that might pass scrutiny at the FISC (FIS Court, the entity that handles FIS Act warrants)
