California Democrat Congressman Eric Smallwood just called the memo false information and a BRAINWASHING MEMO on FOX. And that Dems intend to release thier own "Intelligence Memo " tonight.
Hows this going to look if they dont release the memo which l put at 50-50 tops. The MSM will splash the Rats memo everywhere with no counter. nice.
Consider it free advertisement. And how, exactly, do the Dems expect to get their own memo out of committee without simply leaking it to the media?
I just bet a friend $100 that Schiff's (fake try to get ahead of the bad for them narrative) memo "leaks" to the media before we see the real memo. Media will be complicit in helping obviously. #ReleaseTheMemo

Well, the Republicans gave them Two Weeks to gather their forces. Well done Republicans!
What? No vote? No Presidential ok? Fake memo to create fake news.
Cali Dem? We will have to press 1 for the English version.
One wonders if they are going to send it to the FBI
and other agencies first for clearance?
Hmm...probably so. There are some small-minded conservative critics who might look askance at stringing up an antenna in the evidence room but not me...
Here’s a copy of the Democrat memo:
Unnamed Sources close to Donald Trump, who some believe to be the President, said that the Russians colluded with Donald Trump to deny Hillary Clinton her God-given right to be President.
Dem Intelligence Memo? Sasquatch sighting? Chubacabra? Flying cars?
If you're in Cali, press 2 for English.
Correct.
” And how, exactly, do the Dems expect to get their own memo out of committee without simply leaking it to the media?”
Do they have to get it vetted by the committee if it contains no facts?
They could just write a talking points piece and then send it to CNN with instructions to report it as news. Over and over.
Other than that, Swalwell was born with a face I'd like to punch. He's smug and is obviously politically on the make, hogging as much publicity as he can. He's a frequent obnoxious guest on Tucker Carlson's show.
“If the Democrat memo is written by the Democrat members of the House Select Intelligence Committee and is based on classified intelligence that only the select committee members have seen, and is release unilaterally by Democrats without following proper protocols, then will the responsible parties be stripped of their committee assignments and referred to the House Ethics Committee?”
Good questions. But number 4 (quoted above) is easy.
No.
I don’t believe the Dems have seen the orginal FISA documents. I think only one person (Gowdy??) was allowed to review the actual documents and they have remained in the FBI possession. There has been testimony and summaries of documents given to the House Committee but the memo written by Nunes is based on the actual documents and not just testimony. The Dem’s memo is just an attempt to muddy the water.
