Conservative Treehouse: The media narrative engineers are busy at work attempting to cloud the constitutional framework behind the accurate, lawful, sequence of steps surrounding the Nunes House Intel Memo. Don’t fall for the tricks.
The legislative branch has now voted in committee to declassify the House Intelligence Memo on FISA-702 abuse, and systemic fraudulent DOJ/FBI use therein. The memo has been sent to the executive branch for review and public release approval.
The White House has five days to review. Any DOJ or FBI officials who have a position against public release are now responsible to make their case known to the Office of the President who is in charge of them, and the executive branch.
Specifically because the Chief Executive (President Trump) granted permission for FBI Director Christopher Wray to see the intelligence memo prior to the House Intel vote; Director Wray and Asst. AG Rosenstein had an obligation to debrief the executive on their findings. That’s why Wray and Rosenstein were at the West Wing yesterday. However, the vote last evening transferred the declassification decision to the executive.
Likely the National Security Council, the Office of Legal Counsel, and all relevant Intelligence agency heads will have an opportunity to review and provide input prior to President Trump giving his final approval for declassification and making the document public. Tweet,.. not accidental:

Put yourself in the shoes of the crusty cabal of traitorous democrats and socialists bent on trying for a few generations to destroy this country from within and COMING SO DAMN CLOSE TO THEIR GOAL only to have an upstart like Donald J. Trump create such “fire and fury” with the help of the good guys still within our military and intelligence to successfully defeat them right before the finish line.
The fireline is creeping steadily towards the commies and their back (I believe) is planted firmly up against the walls of their future prison cells.
If I can see it, why can’t anybody else?
More and more I’m convinced that Donald Trump learned a lot of the corruption even before he decided to run for POTUS. He knew what he was going to face and how he was going to defeat them all.
More and more I’m convinced that even that story with Michael Flynn was a way to bring all this out, like some people were saying on Twitter.
Nancy Pelousey says national security is at risk by releasing the memo.
No, more like the democunt party is at risk, especially if a few of them make it to jail.
@old_oaks. I saw a clip of Nancy Pelosy interview with Cuomo. She looked terrified.
Does this go all the way back to BHO ?
“If I can see it, why can’t anybody else?” – tsunami
Judging by some of the “all hope is lost!” “it’s too late!” “nothing will change, same old same old.” comments at iOTWr these days, I’d wager 1) too many people here have been beaten down too long and don’t have the faith or energy anymore (I’m seeing *far* too many self-applied “Tokyo Rose” comments here for my comfort), and 2) too many people here make the mistake of assuming Trump will conduct himself no differently as the Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama Cabal.
Even people like Thomas Wictor think Hillary and Obama will get off scot-free, and that the important thing is “to make sure this never happens again.”
Well, let me tell you: the one *sure* to make sure of that is to make the CONSEQUENCES of their SEDITION and TREASON as harsh as legally possible. NO consequences (Wictor’s assumption) merely means: do it and you can get away with it if you’re powerful enough…EXACTLY THE WRONG MESSAGE!
I agree with Stealth Jeff:

Dammit, I wanna see indictments, convictions, and incarcerations of the traitorous Demonrat bastards.
DRAIN THE SWAMP and LOCK HER UP. Enough is enough!
Trump: “I’ll see your Stormy Story, and raise you one Farrakhan Photo.”
Barky: “Uuuuuhhhhh….I’m out.”
Hillary: “I call cheating. You dealt that Burns Strider deuce from the bottom of the deck!”
Trump: “Put up or shut up, bitch.”
As I understand the issue, various agency personnel used fraud in order to perpetuate further fraud and abuse of power against American citizens, including the current President of the United States. That should never be classified information. Exposing public corruption, even if it leads to a former President and a failed candidate for President, should not be subject to top secret classification rules.
People believe that criminals can hide behind an attorney and client privilege, and to a large extent that is true. But even this privilege is subject to exceptions for perpetration of crimes and fraud. In this case, it is likely that the perpetrators of the abuse of power are the ones claiming that the information should remain classified – and this is exactly what Trump must stop.
Did you read the comments at Haley’s twitter? So much hate and outright disgusting lies! How much of this comes from foreign gov’ts; i.e. mexican and muslim?
Have you e-mailed the WH to Release the Memo?

> Nancy Pelousey says national security is at risk by releasing the memo.
Would you share, on unsecured channels, America’s secrets with … (dunt dunt dun) the Russians!?
What will we do if Trump decides to not release the memo? Is it possible he would do that?
Bannon was right. The real fight has only begun with the election of Mr. Trump
He’s defeated the limp wrists in the R bench
He defeated the DNC and their Harpy
He’s beaten the media
He can’t do it all
Our job is to vote out the local level sons of bitches, and call and write our current reps to let them know what we want.
And to put our thoughts out there

If Trump doesn’t release the memos he’s weaponized them.

I resemble that remark! But, for me, at least, it’s not resignation. It’s that an actual treatment of the disease, a solution of the cause, is not even allowed inside the fence. Let alone in the building. Nor the room. Well, that’s it. We don’t even have a table. When you have all the symptoms of Ebola, I don’t mind if someone with nothing more practical to do says “I’ll pray for you.” When the other choices are “What kind of ice cream do you want for desert?”, “Which season of American Idol reruns do you insist we watch?”, and “Can yo make me another sammich?”, I’m not interested in explaining why that won’t change the outcome.
Brad, as far as I’m concerned, he has to release it. But it is a choice, he might be getting bad advice on this.
Val, Cuomo was almost being a journalist during that interview. Skeletor looked dead inside, she has no Intel in her!
Apparently CNN is reporting that Trump has ordered the release of the memo for immediately after the SOTU. I hope so, then I can go back to my normal optimistic self.
I trust my Trump to do what needs to be done at whatever time is best to do so. I am not worried.
@Zilla, doesn’t it feel all nice, warm and fuzzy knowing our president will act in our countries best interest?
Hell no, I aint in no ways tard of winnin’.
From joe6pack: “What will we do if Trump decides to not release the memo?”
Don’t know about you but for myself, exactly the same thing if he does.
Nothing. There isn’t anything I can do in either case.
From HuffPile—
I won’t link it.
“House Republicans Vote To Release Classified Memo They Wrote Attacking Russia Probe”
Lowell, there is always something you can do. It may not be productive, but you can still do something.
He should release it online immediately at the close of the SOTU. That way it goes direct to the voters and he pulls off a hat trick: the memo is released, no one bothers to listen to the rebuttal speech, and the talking heads are forced to talk about the memo instead of tearing apart the president’s speech.
