REP. SCHIFF: WE CAN’T RELEASE FISA MEMO BECAUSE AMERICAN PEOPLE WOULDN’T UNDERSTAND IT
Grabien ^

Posted on 01/21/2018 5:33:27 AM PST by bryan999

CABRERA: "Why not allow peel to look at it and let Americans make the decision for themselves about whether it's useful information or not?"

SCHIFF: "Well, because the American people unfortunately don't have the underlying materials and therefore they can't see how distorted and misleading this document is. The Republicans are not saying make the underlying materials available to the public. They just want to make this spin available to the public. I think that spin, which is a attack on the FBI, is just designed to attack the FBI and Bob Mueller to circle the wagons for the White House. And that's a terrible disservice to the people, hard working people at the bureau, but more than that, it's a disservice to the country."

He gets under my skin when I see/hear his name. Can’t stand to look or hear the guy. He’s a chauvinistic creep.

Interesting repository of news clips. The “about” and “manifesto” pages reveal the heritage of the company.

“The MSM will do all of the explaining, distorting, twisting and spinning that”s required to protect the Democrats, so what’s he worried about?”

Republicans should call the bluff and release all underlying material. There is no national security reason to keep anything secret. eg If the Russians were involved, and hacked various players, and colluded, then the Russians already know more than we do. If the Russians are not involved, then there is no national security interest.

Trump and Congress both should release all the documents, everything.

There no longer exists a common social consensus or commonly held values.

Way too many people and you seem to be among them don’t understand that the mainstream media isn’t 50% of what it was even 5 years ago. Their influence and credibility are gone or very greatly diminished

There are simply too many ways for people to get information today and even the mainstream media knows it, why don’t you?

That's it! That's why we need to have amnesty for illegal aliens...

... to raise the intelligence of the American people so we can understand hard things like this.

What does he mean by "we?"

Republicans are in control of this Congressional Committee so it is the Republicans who are delaying the release of the memo to the public.

Why?

Who are the Republicans trying to protect?

Schiffhole should consult we-must-pass-the-bill-to-see-what’s-in-it Nancy Pelousy, she’ll say (in our dreams): we must release the memo to see what’s in it.

Then it makes me wonder....did he even read the entire folder? Did he even read a quarter of the folder?

He probably didn't. He's not a member of the House Intel Committee.
