‘Probable cause’ is the key phrase. To imagine all of this distance covered in 16-odd months...with no probable-cause?
What I’ll wonder about is if they had intel communications, but sent them around via unclassified emails (they’ve proven to have been this stupid on other things). If we get another ten days into this, and suddenly unclassified emails exist, this will turn into a bigger mess.

Spot on analysis. Either they started the Russia investigation based on no evidence whatsoever... which would be very bad. Or they’re holding back on an incriminating memo, which would be very bad. My bet is they just started the investigation and pretended thee was a reason... other than their real reason which was to get Trump.
