You’ve got to read it to find out what’s in it. - The Pelosi Doctrine.

Despite the part above the signature attesting to reading and understanding the document. She should spend a decade in a women’s correctional facility.

Right, she signed a warrant authorizing surveillance on a presidential campaign without reading it. Complete BS! She read it and wanted get Trump, just like the rest of them. But ether way, criminal incompetence requires prosecution the same way criminal corruption does.

Didn’t need to read it. She knew it was an anti-Trump fake investigation, so why waste the time reading it? She clearly going to sign it regardless of the content, and she did.

Trisha Anderson, the head of the bureau’s National Security and Cyber Law Branch and principal deputy general counsel for the FBI, signed off on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) application before forwarding the document to then-FBI Director James Comey, despite not having read it, she said.

She read it. Just a bit less incriminating if she says she didn’t.

So, going forward it shall be: “No, nothing unfair or nefarious in my actions. I’m simply an incompetent dumb ass”.

Did anybody ask, “if you had read it, would you have signed it”?

Right. In this situation which would you rather — admit to a potential corruption felony, or merely incompetence? She’s clearly opted for the latter.

I suppose it was OK because it had “I’m With Her” stamped on the back ?

That's what I think. It's her job to read it so she either didn't do her job or she's lying, just like Rod Rosenstein.

That is possibly dumber than knowing what’s in it and signing it anyhow..?

Every person who signed that document needs to be prosecuted and jailed to the max for accountability. You cannot be allowed to claim you didn’t know what was in the document when you were required to know and understand what was in it.
