Sen. Cory Booker is deeply concerned about the more-than-likely impending release of the Nunes memo, which Republicans claim reveals that the FBI used underhanded tactics to surveil members of the incoming Trump administration.
On SiriusXMs Make It Plain with Mark Thompson, Booker said that the release of the memo would be tantamount to treasonous.
This fury and fire that has been created within the right around this [memo] is to me tantamount to a dangerous conspiracy theory that can undermine the important work our Justice Department and intelligence communities do, Booker said.
When you violate the intelligence communitys mandates around classified documentation, what should be released, you could be betraying or, especially if youre revealing sources and methods or giving some color to sources and methods, you are actually endangering fellow Americans in the intelligence community and our ability to source intelligence, he continued. So, to me, this is something that could be potentially viewed as treasonous.
Booker is often considered a frontrunner to be the Democratic presidential candidate in 2020. Bookers refutation of the Nunes memo further establishes him as a defender of the Russia investigation, and also as a staunch opponent to current Republican tactics to undermine the FBI and Justice Department.
Listen above, via SiriusXM.
The perfect Dem Presidential candidate!
The last time I saw a facial expression like that was at the zoo, and the beast threw feces at me.
The only sources and methods that the memo will expose is that the FBI, CIA and Hillary Clinton themselves were the “source” of the intelligence and method by which it was obtained was “pure made up fiction with intent to defraud”
OK, now I am really convinced that there is something damning in that memo. You’ve got too many people screaming about how terrible it will be when it gets out, but too bad its coming out anyway (leaking when it hurt Trump was perfectly fine).
Hahaha. Lunatics on parade! LOL
Project much Bookie? Seditious is as seditious does.
The truth is not treason!
Deep-sea the Deep State!
Cry me a Booker.
The truth is not treason!
Deep-six the Deep State!
Fixed
Is Senator Booker going to cry and lay on the floor and throw a hissy fit when the document is released? Oh please say yes!
Sedition, Treason, deep state coup. . It's all there. Will take a while to get them all in jail, but we have seven more years.
Let the indictments begin!
Cory: Is this the same DOJ and FBI you all have been screaming at the top of your lungs for decades are racist,profile, harass and target minorities?
Asking 4 a friend.
Just what is the exact nature of the classified “national security” info that this memo refers too?
If it is FORMER President Obama’s Presidential Daily Briefing material , specifically the part about FISA Court activity and unmasking, than which field agents will die as a result of this “release”?
Is it the whole FISA Court process or just the actually data used to secure the warrant?
Is it who in the past administration was requesting the unmasking?
Is it the FBI 7th floor names?
Even if its all of the above, they may want to keep it secret for the sake of their own butts, but I don’t see any reason to classify it as a national security risk if it is released
Corey, Corey, Corey.....
You are such a shrieky, squeaky drama queen!! You’re worse than cheap B rate actress in a cheap B rate movie on the OWN channel. You “cried tears of rage” over the alleged sh*thole comment, now you’re clutching your pearls and fainting on your fluffy pink fainting couch.
Corey, are you even a man? Have you checked your underwear lately, are there any testicles in there? Because there doesn’t seem to be any there.
......and with all your sissy drama queen hystrionics YOU think you’re man enough to be POTUS?!?! Bwhah hah hah hah, that’s very funny!!!
Trump grabbed another pussy.
Cory Booker: Releasing the Nunes Memo Could Be Treasonous
1 Has he Charged Diane Feinswine with the Same for releasing Classified Info??
2. It is Most definitely Treasonous for the persons Implicated by the Memo, THEY DID IT!!!
3. In EVERY Jurisdiction in America, if you help somebody “Conceal” a Criminal Act or Evidence of a Criminal Act or willingly do so yourself, you are GUILTY of Being an “accessory after the fact”
In EVERY Courthouse in America people Go to JAIL for doing exactly what the Democrats are doing, Concealing evidence of a CRIME!!!@@
Substitute a “u” for the “a” and you got it right.
This is such a blatantly absurd argument and it is disappointing that the MSM never challenges it. First, what are the confidential sources? Did the FBI go to the CIA which then consulted their moles in Russia? But that seems a stretch - more likely the FBI is embarrassed that they relied on false information provided by an unreliable source to get a warrant to bug the GOP candidate (now President).
Second assuming that confidential sources overseas are referenced, one could simply redact the offending material or describe it in general terms that doesn’t reveal identities.
Third does the memo describe collection methods that go beyond what Snowden already revealed? Again seems unlikely but if so they could be redacted too.
In sum, the whole “trust me it’s vital to national security” argument simply doesn’t cut it anymore, particularly in a case like this where there are no possible terrorism implications.
Well....THERE Goes the mid-terms.
