Republican members of Congress are pushing for the release of a memo that reportedly shows that government surveillance powers were illegally used against Donald Trump during the presidential campaign, and that the Obama administration, the FBI and Hillary Clinton illegally colluded in a concerted effort to try to destroy Trump’s chances of winning the presidency.
If these allegations turn out to be true, this will be the biggest scandal in American political history, but so far the mainstream media doesn’t want to talk about it. Other than Fox News, it is hard to find any coverage of this memo on any of the mainstream news networks. But as you will see below, Republican members of Congress are making a tremendous amount of noise about it.
Only certain members of Congress have been able to read this memo so far. In order to take a look at it, these members of Congress have had to go to a secure room in the depths of the Capitol, and they are not permitted to reveal the details of what they have read.
But some Republican members of Congress that have seen it are speaking out, and what they have revealed so far is extremely alarming…
“It’s troubling. It is shocking,” Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) told Fox News. “Part of me wishes that I didn’t read it because I don’t want to believe that those kinds of things could be happening in this country that I call home and love so much.”
“The facts contained in this memo are jaw-dropping and demand full transparency. There is no higher priority than the release of this information to preserve our democracy,” said Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), a member of the Judiciary Committee, which oversees the DOJ and the FBI.
Another Judiciary Committee member, Rep. Steve King (R-IA), called what he saw in the memo “sickening” and said it was “worse than Watergate.”
Actually, Representative King had a whole lot more to say about the memo than that. Here is the full quote that he posted on Twitter…
I have read the memo. The sickening reality has set in. I no longer hold out hope there is an innocent explanation for the information the public has seen. I have long said it is worse than Watergate. It was
#neverTrump &#alwaysHillary.#releasethememo
A sitting member of Congress says that this is “worse than Watergate” and the mainstream media doesn’t want to talk about it?
Once upon a time the mainstream media at least tried to be fair, but at this point they are extremely hesitant to publish anything that does not fit with the narrative that the Democrats are good and the Republicans are bad.
This memo could be the thing that causes all hell to break loose in Washington. According to Representative Matt Gaetz, “people could lose their job” once this memo gets out…
Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz said he believed people could lose their jobs after the memo is released.
“I believe the consequence of its release will be major changes in people currently working at the FBI and the Department of Justice,” he said, referencing DOJ officials Rod Rosenstein and Bruce Ohr.
“You think about, ‘is this happening in America or is this the KGB?’ That’s how alarming it is,” Pennsylvania Rep. Scott Perry said.
And not too long ago, U.S. Representative Jody Hice added his voice to those calling for the release of this memo…
Earlier this morning, I examined the classified, four-page memo from @HouseIntelComm regarding the FBI, DOJ, and the so-called #RussianCollusion. To put it simply, “WOW.” I joined the call to #ReleaseTheMemo. Americans deserve truth and transparency.
I know that most people have such short attention spans these days, but this is one scandal that we cannot let go. Even though members of Congress are not supposed to reveal the contents of this memo, Representative Gaetz says that it reveals “horrific abuses” that were committed during the Obama administration that will “shock the conscience of this country”…
When asked about the contents of the memo, Rep. Gaetz replied, “There are 4 pages of a memorandum prepared by the Intelligence Committee that will shock the conscience of this country when it comes to the horrific abuses that occurred during the last admin. and that I believe continue to pose a threat to Donald Trump’s presidency.”
Later in the interview, Rep. Gaetz hinted the memo outlines how the U.S. government may have committed fraud by presenting the courts with “false information,” to obtain FISA warrants.
We need to make as much noise as possible until the American people are allowed to see this memo.
And if it is as bad as many people believe that it is, a whole lot of people from the Obama administration and the Clinton campaign need to go to prison.
Fortunately, there are already indications that we are going to get to see this memo soon. According to Representative Dave Joyce, the process of getting this memo released to the public has already begun…
Great news! Our efforts to #ReleaseTheMemo have been effective and the HPSIC plans to begin the process to release the FBI/FISA/Russia memo. This may take up to 19+ Congressional work days but Americans deserve to know the truth.
As I have been stressing repeatedly in recent weeks, we must restore the rule of law in this nation if we want the American people to have faith in the system.
President Trump is fighting tirelessly to do the right thing, but there are dark forces inside the government that desperately want to keep the truth from being exposed. I really like how Tom Luongo described this struggle in one of his recent pieces…
Trump’s continued needling of the establishment; playing the long game and demonizing the media which is the tip of the Shadow Government’s spear while strengthening the support of both the military (through his backing them at every turn) and his base by assisting them destroy the false narratives of globalism has been nothing short of amazing.
As a hard-core, jaded politico, I can tell you I never thought for a second he had the ability to what he’s already done. But, as the past few months have pointed out, the real power in the world doesn’t rest with the few thousand who manipulate the levers of power but the billions who for years stood by and let them.
And those days of standing by are gone.
If Hillary Clinton had won the election, we would have never learned about any of this corruption that is going on behind the scenes.
The Trump presidency is our golden opportunity to take our government back, and I plan to be a big part of the solution once I get to Congress. Nobody is above the law, and I believe that this memo could be a tipping point.
It is time for Hillary Clinton, John Podesta and the rest of that crowd to go to prison, and the American people should accept nothing less.
Michael Snyder is a pro-Trump candidate for Congress in Idaho’s First Congressional District, and you can learn how you can get involved in the campaign on his official website. His new book entitled “Living A Life That Really Matters” is available in paperback and for the Kindle on Amazon.com.
A scandal in DC? Hard to believe? I thought all government employees were wonderful?
Order out of chaos. When all of this corruption and madness comes to a head world-wide a “leader” will be put on display. He will offer to bring the world together and end the corruption/madness. He will go out conquering, appear to die and be risen, go into the temple of God and declare himself above all called God. Make all worship and take his mark or be put to death. He is a liar and false savior. Jesus, God come in the flesh is Lord and the only way.
The FBI is here to protect you. Even if the two major heads are not. Read it and weep. But obey without question. Live free or die in a FEMA camp. Take your pick.
I had a chance to resist but I chose to obey. Now look at me. Maybe they will let me die in peace. But that isn’t as much fun. Dam .I had lots of rounds left. But so be it. Surrender was my option. And a long slow death was my fate. Semper fi.
Release it now. And lock her up. Lock up all the traitors. At least that would be an excuse to shut down the .gov.
We already have about 20 million excuses to shut down the govt. A few may get prosecuted maybe, the rest will be business as usual.
If this memo really does have enough factual evidence against Hillary and others, expect another false flag event very soon. The more it’s a threat to them, the more sinister their attack will be. If you corner a viscous animal like Hillary it will strike out at you.
Hey. Oprah, a childless female who could care less about the future of this planet. Hey if you don’t have grand kids who cares? Yea she didn’t want to lose her looks. Bimbos rule. F the future . My looks are more important. The Tares must burn.Isnt it obvious?
I get 100 rounds for rifles. 1000 rounds per pistol per pound of powder. Jeff Cooper was right 44 mag. Best survivellest round? 44 special even better. Powder and primers and bullet moldes. Keep it short and simple?
Hellery has been wearing a ankle bracelet for quite some time. Ive been trying to tell you folks this is what Trumps execuitive order that he signed in December was about. The Special forces had been rounding up and locking some at GITMO. Podesta is at GITMO. Trump wore a purple tie and drank with both hands on a cup. That’s his way of poking fun at Podesta. You have to hold the cup with both hands to drink when wearing handcuffs. It will be a military Tribunal for those traitors. Be patient its happening. Now the swamp isn’t going to be drained. It is just going to get different inhabitants. Its the military who run everything. They enforce the use of the Petro Dollar. The take out anyone they want. The military doesn’t have to account for its budget. So we will get what we wanted and the Dem Libs will be destroyed. But you never know if what we end up with will be better or worse?
And now you know who is in control. Washington is not going to chop off washington’s foot!
Call me contrary; but, I’ll believe it when I literally see/read it. No matter how imflammatory, how condemning, does anyone really think that Obama, Lynch, Comey, Hillary, Wasseman-Schultz, Holder or any of the slime in the former administration; let alone, Mueller or any current employee of the DOJ, FBI, Congress or Executive Branch is going to pay? Yeah, right …. and I’ve got a real deal on a big ol’ bridge I could sell ya. Like the collusion with the Russians crap, all this will do is waste time, taxpayer money on some long-running panel of ineffective legislators once again. If we want real justice, there’s only one solution left. The people must take physical action. Mark my words. Unless that last statement occurs, this is all just textual self-flagellation.
We allow Trump this one chance to right the ship. If these and other criminals are not jailed/executed then it is up to we the people to wash out the swamp and it will be done with the blood of tyrants and patriots!
BUT IT WILL BE DONE!
Heartless I hear you. Its very easy to be jaded. The only reason it think this time it will be different is because I believe there was a bloodless military coup during the latter part of Obummers term. He quit doing anything and just vacationed and played golf. They had a opportunity to charge Hellery and Obummer Pardon her after she lost. But he didn’t pardon her. Because Gen Dunsford was in charge. The 500 mil in improvements at GITMO. Hellery McCain and Huma all wearing medical boots to over up ankle bracelets. Trump is the Militarys Patsy. So The military is going to remove any opposition no matter what party. They are going to sieze the oppositions wealth. and divide the spoils. im afraid we will not be a bit better off. More likely worse as the military must keep waging wars to enforce the Petro Dollar Monopoly. Every Place out military has went We have never left. So its a continue to feed the beast situation. Also I thing something is up with the planet. The magnetic poles shifting is a big deal.
Hey Old Guy… I don’t know about magnetic pole reversal much; but, the earth is under-going a lot of tectonic alterations it seems. As for the military? I don’t know either. I do know that I sure don’t trust our/my country being run by any military. After all, that is what this nation was founded on – the people, not the military are supposed to be the ultimate power. Now… where did I park my tank?
Don’t drain the swamp;just throw in thousands of 12-foot alligators! I would have been shocked if the Trump campaign wasn’t being spied on.
Release the memos. If a few Repubs go down to take down the Dems…so be it.
Much ado about nothing because nothing will be done to change anything about the permanent rot that is set in stone.
SNYDER AGAIN? Ho hum back to sleep.
I reckon Im cynical but I figure the govt shutdown has more to do with getting folks to watch the one hand and ignore the other….dont need folks paying too much attention to the uncovering of corruption so shove this other thing in their face so they wont notice….not that any of this is new,just more folks seem to be aware of it.REB…”Live free or die tryin”
I’m betting nobody goes to jail. Nobody will even be charged.
This the deep state folks. They protect their own.
Forgive and forget….but keep a list of names.
