Byron York with the Washington Examiner shares with us the following response from the House GOP:
York also shares the following:
Just talked with House Intel source. Said total changes to memo were: A) Unknown number of 'grammatical and clarifying' fixes. B) One change requested by FBI due to sources & methods concerns. C) One two-word change requested by Democrats for accuracy. House Intel GOP statement:
On FBI-requested change to House Intel memo, remember that Nunes showed memo to Wray on Sunday, to two FBI officials on Monday, and WH showed to five more FBI officials on Tuesday. Not shocking that change would be made to address FBI concerns.
Additionally:
On re-vote: Committee can just do it Monday, with White House release immediately after. World won't end. OTOH, Congress often does not make members re-vote on 'technical and conforming' changes. If these changes go beyond that, they can re-vote.
Sundance from CTH has the following observation:
Hey @RepAdamSchiff that's called 'separation of powers'. When the legislative branch (congress) asks for a declassification, the Executive branch gets to make adjustments (during review) and notify congress (that's you). FYI the Justice Dept (DOJ and FBI) = Executive Branch.

No Schiff!
They don’t need to revote. It’s over for them trying the sabotage the release.
If any one of us here at FR were under investigation, would we be allowed to handle and alter the evidence to suit our liking? I think not.
After being passed around so many "editors" can we ever trust the content of the memo as to its original menaing? Changing a "word or two" can change the meaning 180 degrees.
Schiff is becoming irrational. As I predicted on another thread: Resignation from Congress within a week.
Whatever the connection between him, Ed Buck, and Kimberly Lynne Watzman who died today in the helo crash, it must involved Schiff bigly. Probably criminal.
The solution is to release both copies! Let’s see what the treasonous democraps and their co-conspirators in the FBI are so desperate to hide.
The Rats and FBI need a few more days to get their spectacular False Flag event organized (so that the Memo is pushed out of the headlines).
I feel a lot better about the whole situation after reading that. Now just release the damn memo.
The longer Trump waits the more jeopardy he puts the memo in. I sincerely believe this is a set up to bring some hack federal judge in to block the release.
Barbra Streisand! Congressional committee re-votes ONLY IF the substance of memo has changed, not for grammar corrections or redactions. I want to see the memo before coming weekend. TRANSPARENCY IS PARAMOUNT.
If the memo is released to Americans, those eyes could fall out of the sockets.
Yep, no real structural changes to “the Memo” that people are having hysterical fits over.
GOP is stalling again. Watch it get obscured by Super Bowl
You gotta admit, though, this just about takes the cake for slime - the Dems demand a couple of changes, Trump obliges, and then Schiff starts screaming about an altered memo. Classic.
Why did they alter it? Part of a GOP plan to stall?
When Lamont’s aunt Ester found out her new foster child was a con she hollered out “THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE!” She then opened the door and set him free.
That's the whole point of Schiff's LIE; stall, delay, get more people to vote NO.
“Whatever the connection between him, Ed Buck, and Kimberly Lynne Watzman who died today in the helo crash, it must involved Schiff bigly. Probably criminal.”
Wait. I never heard of these people so I picked one - the young woman - and looked her up. She was a hotel manager in West Hollywood. West Hollywood is Schiff’s congressional district. What other connection is there?
No, the mediots will give all the credibility to the rats’ version and then the whole thing will be debated by the pundits, eventually suffocating the truth.
