FBI Issues Rare Official Statement on the Memo

a reply to: theantediluvian

Curious what specific allegations are in the memo the FBI says are untrue.

The memo isn't "investigating the FBI and the DOJ." It's quite possibly the work of a partisan hack trying to promote a narrative via a deceptively compiled hitjob which omits vital information to create a false perception. And since we don't have access to the highly classified source documents, we the people are utterly incapable of judging its veracity ourselves.

So...kind of like the dossier?

A concerned legislator who voted to expand fisa while holding this memo for political gain.


It's about probability imo.

They know full well they can't release the source material.

The majority of congressmen barking in the news don't even have the clearance to view the source material, yet Hannity raging lIke someone just exumed George Washington and took a crap on his face.

These are reasons to be highly skeptical.

Wtf do they think will happen when they expand surveillance and use subcontractors. Stuff leaks and things get abused.

Whatever you get, if anything ,will be so redacted that you wont be able to make much from it

Notice their wording. They did not say that the information in the memo was incorrect. They did not say that all of the memo was not correct. They only stated that some information that was necessary to explain the memo better is missing.

And that's usually gonna be true anytime you release a document related to classified material, since you often can't include all the information without compromising national security. Weren't they complaining just a few days ago that this could compromise national security? And now they're complaining that some information isn't being included? It would be great if they'd be self-consistent.

And all the followers will be silenced and won't hold these people accountable for getting their hopes and playing cherades.

Exactly like the Dossier.

It was just a year ago and the same people were arguing
that it couldn't have been a FISA court.

When Trump tweeted he was "wiretapped" he was spot on.

I hope they do investigate the FBI. But you poke that bear, you better be squeaky clean yourself or you might live to regret it.

eta...who's got the cahones to issue a legal incitement against any 3 letters or the DOJ? They are all bros you know. You go looking for trouble; you might just find it.

As long as they can't release what they really know about the Russian meddling in the election this memo will convince the Trump supporters of bias inside the FBI.
This could easily be the spark that ignites a civil unrest beyond imagination. No agent who is known to work for them would be save anymore.

Not yet. No one from Justice or the FBI has called this memo unverified or uncorroborated.

They are saying information is left out to purposely have a narrative.

Like the media does everyday.

Trump tears down oldest white house tree (that was dead and held up with cables and they took the cuttings for new trees)

It's hilarious watching the usual suspects squirm to debunk the memo that is just full of lies but fail at every step of the way. The MSM is on full panic mode right now and are desperatly trying to distract the public. Yeah well too late. They are going down. Hard.

Btw someone could come to the conclusion that some members here are scared sh!tless of what is in the memo. What happened to the Schiffty narrative? Goddamn this is great.

I am certainly not the one to defend Devin Nunes in any form, other than he seems to have the authority as the head of the House Intelligence Committee to dig into some of the allegations bandied about lately. From there, we will need to see whats in it, and then finally what Horowitz has to say in March.

Flush em out. Drain the swamp.

These "rare" statements from the FBI and DOJ are becoming less rare, for some reason.

This resistance is beautiful and happening as planned.

Nice false narrative. We just want all the guilty parties face justice. **SNIP**

Except they didn't say that. That's what you're reading into it, revealing your own bias. They made no comment about why certain information was excluded. For all you know it could've been excluded because it's too sensitive to release.

a reply to: Perfectenemy

It's also funny to see the usual suspects assume their party is on the up and up and the memo must be true because Hannity said so.

Couldn't be propaganda.

Release it. All blacked out with no source material. It can spin in the news another week.

The congressman who said that has said..."that was my understanding"
