A special counsel needs to be appointed to investigate this travesty.
Cue Guiliani
Can someone post the memo to another website? The link is being slammed. Thank you!
You mean special prosecutor. Serious crimes have been committed here.
I can think of one thing Congress should enact immediately. Lying to a federal agent should no longer be a prima facie crime by itself. If I lie to an NYPD detective that lie may be used to bolster the case against me for a specigic crime. But in itself, it is not a crime. The same should be true for the feds. Flynn would not be in jeopardy were it not for this abuse of police power legally given to the feds
One of the lawmakers who has now reviewed all ‘underlying’ source documents.....
WASHINGTON – Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-Texas) issued the following statement:
....“As a former U.S. Attorney and federal terrorism prosecutor with ‘considerable FISA experience’, I am more than just troubled by the revelations outlined in this memo. Subsequent to my initial review of the memo, I also reviewed, in detail, the still-classified, underlying source documents upon which the initial warrant application and all subsequent warrant renewal applications to surveil an American citizen were made. I believe the memo unfortunately but accurately highlights questionable actions and departures from required legal standards and practices under FISA by a discrete number of senior agents and officials, who appear to have allowed politics to contaminate our apolitical justice system.
“It is my hope that the revelations of this memo will not be misconstrued as a condemnation of the tens of thousands of brave women and men who nobly serve the public with distinction and integrity in the DOJ and FBI. This memo can and should, however, be viewed as an appropriate expression of Congress’ oversight responsibilities of these vital institutions. Further oversight and accountability for the individuals in question is necessary to ensure that the American people can have confidence in these important institutions going forward.”
No!
What needs to happen next is for arrests, trials, and incarceration. There is already enough evidence for that to happen.
This is treason at the highest level.
