Rep. Devin Nunes released a groundbreaking document in early 2018 that shook up Washington and proved to be the beginning of the end of the Trump-Russia conspiracy industry.
His memo, released while he chaired the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, contained two stunning disclosures that are now back in the news.
First, it confirmed that the Democratic Party and the Hillary Clinton campaign funded a Kremlin-sourced dossier in 2016 that accused Donald Trump and his allies of various election conspiracy crimes.
Second, the Democratic-financed dossier was used by the FBI to justify four wiretaps lasting one year on Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page. The FBI warrant applications contained inaccuracies. That news injected real evidence of partisanship as a motive for the FBI’s probe, called Crossfire Hurricane.
⦁ At a hearing last week before the House intelligence committee, Mr. Nunes lashed into FBI Director Christopher A. Wray. He criticized Mr. Wray for the bureau’s efforts at undercutting the 2018 memo by issuing a statement saying it had “material omissions.” This, in effect, fed talking points to Rep. Adam B. Schiff, California Democrat, who now chairs the committee.
⦁ The Washington Post reported on April 16 that Kash Patel, then a close Nunes aide who spearheaded a counter-dossier probe and principally wrote the memo, is under investigation on suspicion of press leaks. An intelligence agency complained about him. Mr. Patel clashed with intelligence leaders repeatedly in his attempt to force more Trump-Russia probe documents into the sunlight.
The 2018 six-page memo, including a two-page letter from the White House counsel disclosing that President Trump had declassified Mr. Patel’s work, instantly elevated Mr. Nunes in the eyes of conservatives. It was the first concrete proof of FBI misconduct toward Mr. Trump.

You are correct so the difference it makes is that the USA as we knew it is done, finito, dead, teats up.
Bye, bye Miss American pie, drove my chevy...
100%. I read the Lee Smith’s book as well. I admire the way the two of them worked together.
All for naught.
Of all the things that has filled me with anger and discouragement about the future of this country, it was that that illegal activities, carried out brazenly and nearly in the open by the intelligence agencies, the DOJ/FBI, the Democrat party (and apparently many in the Republican party) in close collaboration and cooperation with the media, have gone unpunished and those perpetrators will never, ever be called to account.
The open election fraud was a bigger harbinger of doom for me, but...the spying against Trump and the persecution of General Michael Flynn hurt my heart more.
When I saw those things, I realized that the country I love is doomed unless something changes.
Anybody surprised is stuck on stupid. GOPe is in this cabal as much as the demented progressive. Lizzie Cheney is a blood lust tramp.. The tramp forgets her daddy was called Georgie’s gravitas brain.. Mitch the itch earned his status of ‘minority leader’. The GOPe is the cog that gives the lawless progressives their capital.
Yes, it is David vs. Goliath.
(I should read that story again.)
I do keep a small hope for the Republic until the few Patriots left quit. They aren’t finished just yet.
I do believe this.
I am trying to believe that as well, FRiend.
Trying.
I have taken my flag down, because my own government views me and people like me as an enemy. It is a bitter pill indeed.
I’ll get there.
bttt
I totally understand your position. If we weren't about to be completely swamped by Democrat created illegal voting, I would agree 100%.
I'm just afraid only a long plan view is our only hope.
Since 1/20/21 my flag is outside permanently and flying UPSIDE DOWN.
You probably know this is a distress signal.
:-D. I’m back!
I haven’t been able to bring myself to do it, though you are doing so in a correct context, IMO.
This country IS in distress.
I can’t bring myself to do it. Yet.
I also turned the flag decal on my car window upside down.
And my TRUMP bumper sticker will not be coming off until someone decent occupies the White House.
Is it too early to start shooting democrats?
Asking for a friend.

Not sure if Claire Booth Luce would say that we are still at that awkward stage.
Just out of curiosity, what do you think my long view is?
