    Thanks for the reminder, but yes, there is still an IG investigation ongoing.

    You mean like McCabe stating no warrant would have been sought without the dossier?

    I think we already knew this. Not exactly shocking. Just a rehash.

    What is the crime? Lying to the FISA court?

    Did Steele really say he "was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected" Or was this heard incorrectly by OHR ? That is exactly what Trump would say, or, I don't remember, or I didn't say that. Or, like with Comey, just lie and deny he said it.

    Now that is funny! If you had paid attention over the last few years, the higher ups never get handcuffed, as that is saved for the lower level boys. The journalist Risen recently said as much on Democracy Now. You want a link? What? You would not believe Risen who is no GOPher, or Democracy Now? I just finished listening to the interview with Risen.

    Hopefully we will get some info which will convince the dems here of the malfesiance that went on within the FBI. Well, strike that, they will just have to go into denial, and drown in that river.

    "Would have been sought" and "used in the application" are distinct.

    The FBI kept the pedigree of the dossier hidden. That is actually a big deal since the FBI could not verify the dossier.

    To get a warrant on a guy who worked with Russian spies and kept going to Russia to visit state actors?

    The FBI was politicized, and this memo proves it without a doubt. Their actions in using opposition research and not disclosing that fact to obtain a warrant is completely unethical.

    Who "worked with Russian spies"? Are you referring to Page perhaps?

    You know that's not true.

    This is the big deal, using the unverified dossier to spy on Americans, that people have speculated on for quite some time and now there is evidence that it did happen as speculated. Spying on Americans under false pretenses is quite damning.

    What's not accurate in the memo? We know now the claims about all the national security issue and exposing means and methods was totally bogus. We know they use circular reporting to convince the FISA court of the veracity of the memo. I hope the FISA court files for some action for the deception.

    Yeah, It says it right there. McCabe testified to the committee that the FISA warrant would not have been granted without the dossier. I mean, either he testified to that account or he didn't I'm having a hard time believing that Nunes just bald faced lied about it considering that's so easy to verify. You simply can't polish this turd up.

    look at the commies frantically searching for words to defend and justify abuse of authority, collusion, corruption, process fraud, and frankly, treason within their Messiah's administration.

    Well, an oligarchy would not make that illegal, would it? A republic? Yes. But these kind of lies are done all of the time. What happens to those people? Probably nothing. It just makes the justice system suspect is all. If they cannot find some lower level gov't worker to send off to prison, no one towards the top gets into trouble. They have to protect their own, right? lol

    The memo is not the end of this, it is just the beginning.

    Non sequiter. There are a long list of witnesses that the Commitee chairman won't call. He has been holding the few hearings he has had behind closed doors, in order to prevent a repeat of what happened when Comey testified (the last time they held a public hearing).

    They are avoiding the camera in order to do what Nunes thinks his job is, providing political cover for Trump.

    Nunes isn't interested in oversight. This memo makes that even more obvious.

    Even Fusion testified they could not confirm the veracity of the dossier yet it was used to get a FISA warrant.

    Really?

    Don't think we don't understand why liberals are fighting this so hard.

    You know where this leads:

    Obama.

    3link tried this BS as well.

    Funny thing is the Democrats haven't started the vetting process to release their memo. Why is that liberals?
