...It turns out the Senate Judiciary Committee also has a memo on Christopher Steele, the FBI and Russia dossier they are working to declassify. Their memo is set to be released including FBI redactions shortly....
Paul Sperry of the New York Post reported, BREAKING: The Senate Judiciary Committee also has a memo on Steele, the dossier and the FBI, and is working to get it declassified.
[....]
As previously reported, GOP Lawmakers are seeking to make the case that the Mueller investigation and the FBI probe into Trumps campaign was based on potentially tainted and flawed evidence connected to Hillary Clinton, says John Solomon of The Hill.
Solomons report revealed part of the investigation includes an eight page criminal referral filed with the DOJ by Grassley and Graham:
...While the FBI has been protesting the release of the Nunes memo, it has been working behind the scenes to vet a version of the Grassley-Graham memo, which is expected to be released in redacted form soon....
On January 5th, Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) sent a letter to Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray demanding they investigate if Christopher Steele lied to federal authorities.

We need those FISA warrant applications released ASAP!
You forget the Director of the FBI, Comey, was fired last year by Trump. Also, the Deputy Director of the FBI, McCabe has been recently fired by Director Wray.
Next up, the Deputy Director of the DOJ, Rosenstein. The dominoes are falling. Stand by for more revelations and more Deep State firings. Yes, I want them prosecuted, but just getting them out of power is a good start
As I've been saying, Trump is playing rope-a-dope to drain this particular Swamp. With more coming out over the next weeks/months and with the new Hillary investigations, I have hope.
Plus, it's been reported that some rank and file FBI are starting to whistle-blow. It's long been reported they were not happy with Comey's bogus investigation into Hillary's illegal server and transfer of classified docs. Exoneration before all players were interviewed; changing the wording from "gross negligence" to "extreme carelessness", and no "intent" found. Of course, we all know the word "intent" is not in the statute. As the old saying goes, "Ignorance of the law is no excuse". As if Hillary had ignorance about security procedures as SOS. She was read in and ignored their objections to her private server.
This is only going to get bigger and the Dims will lose in the mid-terms because of their arrogance and illegal activities.
Im fairly certain coming from the Senate and having names like Lindsey Graham on the cover page that this memo will be a watered down, mamby-pamby version that essentially praises the organization and suggests some minor cleanup.
Doubtful.
Chairman Grassley has it in for the FBI after they stonewalled and lied to him. Ranking minority member Feinstein has had her own feud with the FBI. Those two know enough about Linda to keep him honest, at least about this. Ted Cruz is on that committee too.
Since it has to get Wray’s and Rosenstein’s approval before being released, it’s likely to be a black page where we never get to see the contents.
Thanks for the link.
I don’t trust the senate GOPers.
No, it only threatened job security, in the "deep state".
Well, since the Russians (then called The Soviet Union) actually created our contemporary leftists, back in the 1960s...they actually fulfilled Khrushchev's promise.
Remember; Debbie Washrag Schultz, The Beast, and other top-level RATs cannot describe the difference between a RAT and a socialist.
The Chief Justice appoints all FISA judges, IIRC.
So...Roberts.
How long are their terms?
I don’t know what the Senate rules are regarding release of classified info, but imagine the process is similar to that of the House.
Maybe its indicative of the FISA court simply being a rubber stamp.
Yes! But libs will never understand. The memos are a list of facts and libs are automatically repelled by facts. The MSM won’t cover the story because they speak in communist party line slogans only.
Bkmk
I don’t like the trend I’m seeing — maybe incorrectly — that FBI, DOJ, etc., are setting up Steele as the fall guy, so they can come out of this looking like victims. Not likin’ it.
“The memo that came out today was at first ‘Classified.’”
Right when this hit the fan in a major way — maybe three weeks ago — two Congressmen on the committee said it wasn’t Classified, and had no classified info in. Wonder why it kept going back and forth, when it started life as not Classified.
The interesting aspect is what has old Rod and Christopher investigated since they received the memo
