    Or you saw the title say that it's regarding Fusion GPS and Russia and suddenly you're interested in that? Kek.

    Or maybe, fallback position, you'll try to act like suddenly Republicans are super concerned about the implications of poorly supervised wireta...

    One of the most unconvincing and ineffectual "speeches" we may ever see...

    The Republican's have spent whatever political capital they had on so called bombshells. They've cried wolf way to many times.

    Right from CNN page:
    At the same time, Simpson acknowledged that he wasn't convinced at the time a "specific crime had occurred," though he told lawmakers he thought it was possible there was a "crime in progress."
    "I'm an ex-journalist, so I'm not really in a position to prove that anyone's engaged in a crime. I mean, you know, sometimes you do find proof of criminal activity in an investigation, but more often than not you find things that are suggestive or raise questions."
    Basically, content of this highly classified interview is less important than buzz it's created to further attack other side in the eye of the average Joe.
    Being good journalist in current media means saying few vague sounding words, not directly accusing but leaving lasting impression in the people minds what all this stuff have some sort of credibility.
    And they quite aware about number of people actually checking their narrative. Pretty much zero.

    If there's a shocking memo then they should feel free to release it. But so far, nothing said appears to be anything but fluff to stir up drama - one wonders if there are elements in the memo so classified that they know it can't possibly be released, so they can safely say all they want about what it reportedly contains. Otherwise, they're the very people who can put the gears in motion to get it released through appropriate channels, so the whole social media tour they're engaging in seems a little strange.

    Never forget, however, that at the end of the day, regardless of any memo, whataboutism does not absolve anyone else of guilt. So even if there is revolutionary information about Fusion GPS and the dossier and "FISA abuses," you can't forget what Fusion was looking into, what the dossier was about, and that any alleged shocking information would all but guarantee the authenticity of those reports. So, you know, Trumpsters, maybe think this whole game through - no matter what happens, it's worse for you and the actual administration in power than the guys who were in the chair two years ago.

    Must be, if you consider CNN is a Russian propaganda machine.

    Yet once again Jeezy failing to provide sources. It's easy to link sources in posts. You should try doing it sometime.

    Trump can declassify it whenever he feels like it.

    I quoted what you wrote, in what appears to be broken English.

    Do try to keep up, rookie.

    Oh, ok. How cute. You label me as russian troll.
    Trying to attack the messenger and not the message. Trying to put me on the defensive and forgetting information was brought up.

    How can you guys stand for this? Our press is as free as yours, yet their stories would never stick here. It's just too much fiction & empty bravado with an obvious agenda than actual news. He has no objective credibility.

    Russian botnets and trollfarms have been working all night to push this (their morning/early afternoon) to push this conspiracy to the top of twitter (1.2 million tweets and counting) and other social media platforms. While they haven't been this active since the election, its unclear what their goal in all this is. The fact that several republican legislators have jumped on board suggests something has both Russia and the GoP very worried.

    I wonder if this'll be as revealing as the last Nunes "big revelation".

    I don't care if you're a Russian troll. You aren't even that interesting. It's a legitimate question considering the content of your post and how similar it is to people who don't have a full grasp on the language.

    Also, your post is going to need a lot more gravitas if you want the "son" tagline to stick. Take your time, don't Russian, I mean rush in, to it. I understand exaggeration and overemphasis on inconsequential things may be your entire shtick, but don't blow it so early.

    You'll get there.

    He is attacking your interpretation of what the article stated. Are you recanting what you said after?

    Legitimate question about my language? And if I say it's Latvian, or Norwegian or Afrikaans, it would actually matter? It changes content of the information I post?
    Ok, son.
    When you have something interesting to say on the subject, I will answer. Until then you can make educated guesses about my ethnicity as much as you please.
