The Democrats weren't the ones pretending that releasing partisan hitjob memos based on highly classified source material — that none of us will ever get to see — was "transparency" or in the public interest.
That was the Republicans. They used the pretense of transparency and serving the public interest to argue for releasing the Nunes memo. That bull# went right out the window when it came to letting out anything they don't want us to see.
No the democrats were the ones that paid a firm to pay a foreign agent to get partisan opposition research on trump from Kremlin sources, then have the info be used not only by the FBI but the media to smear trump, and then lied about it for a year while bloviating about that info like it wasnt partisan info.
Again, the republicans voted today to allow all of congress to see the dem memo, which was the exact same first step with the republican memo.

maybe trump will say something to unite all the white nationalists to form their own government, and he will be their leader.

Adam Schiff is giving a statement right now that the intel committee has voted to release the memo.
They also voted not to release adam schiffs democratic memo that they wrote in response.
Now Trump has 5 days to decide rather or not to release it.
I will add sources as they become available.

Als apparently the committee did vote to allow all members of the house to see the democratic memo, which was the exact same process they took with the republican memo before it was released to the public.
Democrats, voting as a block, tried to advance a series of motions they said would help put the Republican memo in context. All but one of those motions failed along party lines. The committee did make a Democratic memo rebutting the Republican version available to the full House but not to the public.

Nunes is a biased lap dog. I do not think his little memo is any more than an attempt to throw a monkey wrench into the investigation. I do not think that the FISA court allows for abuses since to extend a warrant the applicant needs to prove that the original has been successful and born fruit. If it had not they never would have approved the extension.
I'm assured by professionals from both parties that no laws were broken. I am worried that some people are going to be misled by this.

At the same time I have a problem just taking these folks at their word.
Will they release the evidence?
Will partisans demand they do or be happy the memo gets released and just take the same guys who voted for more spying word for it?
Cause I thoroughly don't believe a word from these people's mouths.
Especially when it's what I want to hear. The record shows me that's when it's most dangerous.
