The Biggest Political Scandal of Our Lifetimes

RUSH: The other big story that is out there: “A review of a classified document [a memo] outlining what is described as extensive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act abuse was made available to all House members Thursday and the revelations could lead to the removal of senior officials in the FBI and Department of Justice, several sources with knowledge of the document stated. These sources say the report is ‘explosive,’ stating they would not be surprised if it leads to the end of Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel investigation into President Trump and his associates.

“The House Intelligence Committee passed the motion along party lines Thursday to make the classified report alleging extensive ‘FISA Abuse’ related to the controversial [Trump] dossier available to all House members,” and it was, and they’ve all read it. They’ve all seen it. It’s just, what is it, two- or three-page memo. It’s not extensive. “Some members of the House viewed the document in a secure room Thursday.”

It’s a four-page memo is what it is, and do you realize none of it has leaked? (interruption) What do you mean, you “can’t figure out why not”? (interruption) Oh, you want to know why our people aren’t leaking it? Well, the reason the Democrats aren’t leaking it is ’cause it doesn’t help them to leak it. The Democrats in the deep state — various cabinet level and intelligence level positions — were leaking like a sieve, and so was Bannon.

I mean, there’s so many people leaking during the entire first year of the Trump administration, some of them in the administration, but most of them not. Most of them at the intelligence agencies. Every day, as you recall, there was seemingly a bombshell. “This is the end of it! This the end of the Trump presidency! This is it! This is the silver bullet!” Yet with each of those stories, a line was buried in each one saying, “To date, none of these leads have led to any hard evidence. But officials say the odds are that they’ll find it.” Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Anything to get them off the Trump trail right? Kushner STILL doesn't have a security clearance by the way.

The Democrats have cried wolf and shot themselves so many time in the foot that they can't walk and no one will listen to them to help.

I wish they would stop talking about it and just release it. We have a right to know !

Just how do you know that? Everyone in the Government has at least a secret clearance. If you don't have a higher clearance you don't have access. If it is true , maybe he doesn't need access.

2:06 What do you expect them to find? They have spent the last several months investigating and have found nothing. Absolutely nothing. A big fat nothing burger. In the end it will be your corrupt party who will be found guilty of collusion. Your Hillary. Your Obama. All of them. After all it's been proven that Hillarys campaign paid for the Trump dossier. It is you and your party that are the dirty ones. I hope when they are all being charged you will come back on this blog and troll some more. But we all know you won't. You will disappear just like your party come November 2018.
