Last week I had a post about the memo that the Republican's authored and came out of the House Intelligence Committee. In a nutshell, it succinctly told the story of the Democrats funding some opposition research from a shady character who made a lot of stuff up, the FBI got ahold of it and then used it as a part of the justification for spying on a member of the Trump campaign. That member is a U.S. Citizen. Pretty shoddy. You can read more as well as the memo here.
So inevitably the Dems launched their own memo. When the Republican memo surfaced, every Dem voted against releasing it. But here every Republican voted to release it. Of course, that fact got glossed over by our stellar, inquisitive journalist corps. So they followed procedure and sent it up the White House for release. And in what is probably the least surprising thing in history, the WH sent it back and said to take out some stuff, and redact some stuff, and change a few things. In case you have any doubt, this was hugely predictable. What was also hugely predictable is that the Dems are now crying hypocrisy. It really is sort of beyond belief that they can be so stupid. I mean, that was obviously their intention all along. So their memo hasn't been released. But you can take this to the bank. It will not be of substance. I'm not sure what they'll say but there are two undeniable facts. The Republican memo uncovers serious wrongdoing by the Dems and Hillary's campaign that can't be explained away. Secondly, there is no reasonable excuse that will make this outrageous behavior okay. Simple as that.
