GOP Rejects Adam Schiff’s Last-Ditch Effort to Block Memo’s Release
Breitbart.com ^ | 1 Feb 2018 | Joel B. Pollack

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) made a last-minute effort Wednesday evening to block the release of a highly-anticipated House Intelligence Committee memorandum that is expected to allege that the Obama administration abused the federal government’s surveillance powers to spy on Donald Trump’s political campaign.

The committee voted along party lines on Monday to release the memorandum to the public, subject to final approval by the president.

Schiff, the ranking member of the Democratic Party minority on the committee, tweeted that committee chair Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) had “made material changes to the memo he sent to White House.” Because these changes had not been formally approved by the committee, he said, the president was “therefore reviewing a document the Committee has not approved for release.”

Evelyn Farkas interview on MSNBC from March 2017:

If Farkas can get on MSNBC and make all of these admissions and disclosures about U.S. government surveillance -- including her own admissions about LEAKING information from this surveillance to the media -- and she's not in jail today, then there's no reason why the HPSCI memo and all classified material remotely related to it -- shouldn't be released.

Hey Dems, check out this website: www.united.com

They’re not the best, but they are a US carrier, so you ‘charge it to the office’, and they fly to many, many, countries, some WITHOUT extradition treaties with the US (meaning you’re home free if you can get out before your passports are seized).

“If Farkas can get on MSNBC and make all of these admissions and disclosures about U.S. government surveillance...and she’s not in jail today...”

Perhaps she’s a white hat, and was from the start. Her admission, which seemed voluntary at the time, may have been to give some backbone to Congress and Sessions to light a fire.

Great move by POTUS, more free advertising to bring attention to it. ALSO HE SPEAKS today at 12:30 to Republican lawmakers.

After yesterdays ATTACK on the train to change the narrative from memo to dead republicans, failed false flag.

Should be a great weekend because there is a lot more coming out.

BTW anyone seen or heard from BO? DWS?

Passports don’t matter for them. They have money, power, and favors they could call in.

They could leave the country whether they have a current or expired passport.

Schiff, Pelosi, Schumer and the rest of the scallywags are shaking in their socialist boots. They know the memo will tell the public how dastardly they are.

When headlines read THE FBI SAYS IT’S FAKE NEWS ....IF IS’S NOT BACKED UP BY THIS
All government agencies have a verifiable method of communication known as a press release which has a contact name on it when issued.and that authorized name indicates that it is an official position taken by that agency.

The media is lying and propagandizing this issue .

If this were a nothingburger the Democrat/FBI Freak-Out would not have gone to the full-court press.

Maybe - but often as the walls close in, friends become a bit less ‘friendly’.

Who wants to bet these idiots are going to find a “judge” to block its release (nevermind the fact it would be totally out of their rights to do so)?

“House meeting! House meeting! Someone find a safe space for schiff-for-brains.”

He actually changed his name some years ago. He was originally from the Schitt family.

”What if it ends up going public and we all discover it is a nothing burger?”

Unfortunately, there will be a bunch of boo-birds on this forum in glee.

If it is a nuc on the deep state, the same group will be wallowing in self-pity.

Trey Gowdy said it is not earth shaking and not to expect too much.
