Nunes memo
Feb 2, 2018, 1:37 PM
|
|
Repubs - "wow, discloses so much bias. SEE?!"
Dems - "wow, discloses a little bias, but overall not a big deal"
Alright now that we have gotten both of those responses out of the way, can someone in here have a genuinely original, bipartisan analysis of the situation?

Pretty much every indie on Twitter thinks it's stupid. Even a lot of Republicans do.
But that's not the answer you want, so you'll call it partisan garbage.

He can't be. He doesn't have the r beside his name.
Judging by how fast your pulse has dropped, I'd say you have several people tding your posts.

1. Brings into question the FISA warrent on Carter Page
Feb 2, 2018, 1:45 PM
|
|
2. Asserts that the dossier was used as justification for the warrant.
3. Explains that it was used because Steele was a trusted source for the DOJ for awhile so they blindly accepted his findings.
4. Goes into some detail about how Steele was biased in his reporting.
5. Starts randomly asserting that P Steele and S Steele, since they are related were trying to conjure up stuff to unseat a president.
Did I leave anything out?

Not really, Page had been under FBI surveillance since 2014. The Dossier just added more info.
Nothing in the Dossier, particularly about Page has been disproved.
No meat, all bread.

The DOJ and FBI, who are partisan just like the rest of us in the lounge, took a paid for campaign research dossier provided by a British spy to a FISA judge. The judge, not knowing all the facts, issued authorization for surveillance on Trump campaign. Had he known all the facts, it would not have been granted...and turns out British spy had a grudge and was full of ####.
Long story short, politicians will do anything to win an election and the power that comes with it. Even break laws. Shocker!
Anybody with a brain knows this has gone on long before this memo and probably from both sides.

It doesn't disclose any bias...

None at all. Bias would be indicated by a pattern of behaviors. In geometrical terms, it would be a line.
What we've got in the MEMO is a point. No pattern at all.
I'm not saying there's not bias, but this memo doesn't show it. At all. That's not a political opinion. It's a statement based on the fact of what the word "bias" means.

I agree with you.

Maybe I'm not paying close enough attention, but Carter Page came under surveillance in 2013 before there was a Trump campaign or dossier. So the timeline appears mixed up.
