Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) said Monday that Rep. Devin Nunes worked with the Trump White House to "concoct" the recently unclassified FISA memo and that they had numerous co-conspirators.
When asked if then-FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe told the Intel Committee behind closed doors that if not for the Steele dossier no FISA warrant would have been issued, he said that was taken "out of context" and that those were "not his exact words." He called the dossier "largely accurate."
"This investigation began independently of the dossier and the fact is the dossier is largely accurate," Quigley said on Monday's broadcast of CNN's New Day. "If there's a few minor errors, so be it, but it was raw intelligence data to be begin with."

REP. MIKE QUIGLEY (D-IL): It is false. We're not his exact words. Remember, that was classified. That the setting that we're talking about. So I have to be mindful of it. Until our memo comes out, it's hard to contradict exactly what they're saying.So those were not his exact words. They're cherry picked. They're out of context. As Mr. Dent said, that's true for the entire two and a half page memo. I don't think either memo should have been put out because they release information that shouldn't be out there protecting sources and methods, but now that their report is out there, our memo has to go out there just to correct what they've stated in their short memo.

If the dossier was accurate then why did the FBI cut Steele loose and refuse to pay him?
If the dossier is “largely accurate”, WHAT ARE THEY FREAKIN CRYING ABOUT????
Release the transcript of the relevant part of McCabe's testimony and settle it once and for all.
When ANY Democrat talks, I just assume he’s LYING! It’s what they do!!
The Democrats are skillfully avoiding your point. But we are not being fooled. A large percentage of the voting crowd might be but not us.
Great. Let’s release the transcripts.
Trumpmas: where all the DC cherry trees are decorated with your favorite lying Demoscum....
Wonder if he is involved in any Demoscum pedo rings?
The DEMONRATS have started their campaign of lies to cover for the Deep State traitors. A pox on them all.
The answer to this is more transparency.
Let us see the transcripts!
Probably off the record like Hillary’s questioning
If they had verified intelligence, why did they use a Yahoo News story to support the dossier? Why did they use the dossier at all, knowing that it was Clinton campaign opposition research?
And if they are concerned about revealing sources and methods, shouldn’t they be concerned that a former British spy had co-opted their sources and methods?
.
.
They’re liars.
The dossier was used and Yahoo article because whatever so-called evidence they had was meager at best.
This is a FISA warrant and has a higher (supposedly) standard for granted a warrant.
Exactly. They are doing this to deflect attention from the gorilla.
you can’t have a ‘largely accurate’ document without credible sources that can be examined and verified.
Steele is not a source. He’s a gossip. The sources are the original sources of information, who are nowhere to be found, much less identified and examined and verified.
Then release the transcripts and let us be the judge.
The expert.....
McCabe was either saying:
1) The FBI wouldn’t have submitted the FISA application if it hadn’t been for the dossier, or
2) The FISC wouldn’t have approved the warrant without the dossier.
And that improves their argument how?
Just in: House Intelligence panel votes to release Democrats’ rebuttal of Nunes memo
Fake but largely accurate.
They have to give Moonbat Nation something.
The butthurt on the left is strong.
