Memo Nunes Sent To White House Differed From Memo HPSCI Voted On

This was tweeted out 35 minutes ago by Rep. Adam Schiff:

BREAKING: Discovered late tonight that Chairman Nunes made material changes to the memo he sent to White House – changes not approved by the Committee. White House therefore reviewing a document the Committee has not approved for release.

The Hill - Schiff: Nunes gave Trump edited version of memo

Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, made the claims in a letter to Nunes, accusing the committee chair of making "substantive" changes to the controversial memo before sharing it with White House counsel for release.

Those changes, Schiff said, were not approved by the full committee as protocol dictates.

"Discovered late tonight that Chairman Nunes made material changes to the memo he sent to White House – changes not approved by the Committee. White House therefore reviewing a document the Committee has not approved for release." Schiff said in a tweet.

I'll be back shortly with images of the letter.

ETA:

If thats true, this whole thing reeks..real bad. That would be classified info that Nunes is tampering with, im not sure even he'd be that naive unless someone was telling him to do it.

Simple explanation.

The Memo was rewritten due to consultation with FBI agents.

Lou Dobbs: Our chief correspondent at the White House, John Roberts, telling us that the new version of the memorandum has been altered in some ways by the White House review.

Five professional members of the FBI were at the White House to meet with the Chief of Staff John Kelly to got through that. www.thegatewaypundit.com...

Shifty Schiff needs to resign

He is outright lying on this one.

I'm sure this won't bite him in the ass. Keep up the good work Nunes!

I'm not sure who's worse, Schiff or Ted Lieu... I'm pretty sure Trump could trump all these games and declassify/release on his own. I hope he just does that..

Last minute desperate move by the D’s in an attempt to keep the citizens of the US in the dark.

Isn't this the definition of a gambit from either side?

Schiff alleging that the memo is not the same would result in a delay.

Nunez actually altering the memo would result in...I'm guessing information/rhetoric on top of the already shaky information.


How odd.

this dog and pony show is getting old. does anyone have one lick of respect or trust for anyone on either side of this debacle? i know i dont and the more i watch it the more i want both sides razed to the ground

Some odd things happened today, ranging from the republican train crash to now this last ditch effort to block the document being released... I wish Trump would just release it, allow some public light in and lets begin restoring the DOJ/FBI from this blatant corruption.

White House says it's being released tomorrow. President will be at the Republican retreat to discuss strategy. Maybe it will be released ahead of that meeting.

Adam Schiff is just running the last leg of interference.

The DOJ is investigating Andrew McCabe for his role
in the Insurance Policy.

Special Counsel = Insurance Policy

Bingo!

The fact that Schiff is this nervous tells me that what is in this memo is most likely true.. If it was a lie he wouldnt care and would push for it to be released, knowing that the truth would likely come out and the GOP would look bad...

Yep, if they are changing it inbetween people viewing - thats not good.

I dont believe yet they're changing it for nefarious reasons, but lets wait and see. Many people (myself included) are hoping this memo is the start of the corruption exposure

So what now? Release all 3 memos? How about we just go for the FISA warrant application and get this thing done and over with?

By now enough has leaked out that we if we put it all together, we probably already have a good idea what the "shocker" is supposed to be:

The FISA warrant application for Carter Page contained (in some part) information given to the FBI by Christopher Steele, which later appeared in the infamous dossier and that the FBI/DOJ officials failed to adequately explain the origins of that information.

It's also been reported the memo mentions Rod Rosenstein signing off on the application for the extension of the warrant.

What we need to know is what's in the FISA warrant application. Just some of the questions:

- Exactly what information from Steele was included
- If and how the information was vetted.
- Were the identities of sources divulged to the FBI?
- How was it collected?
- How was it used in the FISA application?
- What portion of the body of evidence does the information comprise?
- Was it used to corroborate intel from other sources?
- Was it misrepresented to the FISC judge?

Which one would you have them release at present?

Testifying in November before the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee, Page said he met with Russian government officials during a July 2016 trip he took to Moscow while he was a foreign policy adviser to Trump’s campaign. He said he made the “benign” visit as a private citizen, according to the interview transcript.

Team Trump had just basically won the nomination.

The memo contends that the FBI and Justice failed to tell the judge that the request was based on a dossier compiled by a former British spy hired by a research firm partially financed by the Democratic National Committee and Democrat Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, the sources said.

That is factual.

Team Left colluded with a foreign intelligence company and spy to write the dossier.

The sources said the memo was misleading because all the dossier excerpts used in the application had been confirmed by U.S. or allied intelligence and law enforcement agencies. Moreover, said the sources, the application was based largely on material collected and verified by U.S. intelligence. Under the Foreign Intelligenc

That's fine if they want to go down this road.

The President may authorize, through the Attorney General, electronic surveillance without a court order for the period of one year, provided that it is only to acquire foreign intelligence information,[5] that it is solely directed at communications or property controlled exclusively by foreign powers,[6] that there is no substantial likelihood that it will acquire the contents of any communication to which a United States person is a party, and that it be conducted only in accordance with defined minimization procedures.[7]

Alternatively, the government may seek a court order permitting the surveillance using the FISA court.[18] Approval of a FISA application requires the court find probable cause that the target of the surveillance be a "foreign power" or an "agent of a foreign power", and that the places at which surveillance is requested is used or will be used by that foreign power or its agent.[2]

A trip was their 'probable cause'.

Either way Team left abuse the FISA system.
