Jerry Nadler’s Leaked Rebuttal of the Nunes Memo Is Very Weak
National Review ^ | 2/4/2018 | Andrew McCarthy

Posted on 02/04/2018 7:12:00 PM PST by Rumierules

Representative Nadler is a shrewd lawyer but he has spent his life in legislatures rather than courtrooms. Representative Jerrold Nadler of New York, the senior Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, has written a six-page response to the FISA-abuse memo published Friday by the committee’s Republican staffers under the direction of Chairman Devin Nunes (R., Calif.). I won’t get sidetracked by the fact that Nadler’s “Dear Democratic Colleague” letter has been “exclusively obtained” by NBC News — i.e., that it was leaked to the media, whereas the so-called Nunes memo was provided to committee Democrats before publication so they could seek changes. The Nunes memo had to be subjected to a rules-based process because of classified-information issues. The Nadler memo does not seem to contain classified information; it just responds to what the Republicans have produced, which is now public record. I don’t agree with Jerry Nadler’s politics, but he is an able lawyer. What surprises me about his retort is how weak it is.

The Waddler is lardass liar and a leaker.

This is the same Waddler who vehemently defended impeached and disbarred rapist Bill Clinton.

I am still trying to figure out my Trump supporting friends who love Gowdy and think he would make an excellent AG. Seems he is on the fence when it comes to Trump.

So the 6 pages of the dem memo are...

1. Nunes is a poopy-head
2. Page sis a poopy-head
3. FBI virtuous
4. Rosenstein Saint
5. Dossier factual
6. Russia

Rush pointed out a Dem Senator saying that they plan to ignore the lack of evidence and just scream “Trump has to proven he DIDN’T do it”

Slightly off topic, but does anyone following this know whether Page’s status as a Trump campaign advisor was disclosed in the FISA application?

I don’t know if Gowdy would be a pit bull AG, the kind we would want. It’s more a matter of Jeff Sessions being such an invisible, seemingly feckless AG, it seems Gowdy would be an improvement.

The Waddler is still a revolting lardass, even after his lap band surgery.

......and he’s also a large bloated lying sack of sh*t.

There is a simple solution to all this learned speculation.

Trump has the authority to declassify and release the FISA application, the FISA warrant, and any FISA court transcripts.

Just do it, Trump.

IMO this graf is Andy’s game-set-match

Here’s the problem: Steele is not the source of the information. For purposes of the warrant application, he is the purveyor of information from other sources. The actual sources of the information are Steele’s informants — anonymous Russians providing accounts based on hearsay three- and four-times removed from people said to have observed the events alleged.

Nadler hasn’t practiced law in actuality, just in his mind. Andy convicted the blind sheik.

“Representative Nadler is a shrewd lawyer” because “he has spent his life in legislatures rather than courtrooms.” His rebuttal is weak, because he rebutted from the wrong side of the debate.

Adam Schiff doesn’t seem to realise the impact of a FISA Court knowing the origin of the Dossier and still approving the warrant. It would mean the only solution is to repeal FISA.
