Hey Steve, It was you who wanted to see Rachel Maddow face, well she is laughing at the memo because the information was not their, the magic ticket, that is all Trump needs to do some firing but that landmark moment, did not happen.
The president declassified and pass on secrets without reading it. WOW!!! don't you feel safe?

Some of my Trump supports will not touch this video report because they can't handle the truth. This report shades light on the Bull 💩 that Fox FAKE News don't you to know about this sad report that the Republicans pulled right out their backside.
HOW SAD...

Let me share some very important points that I came up with after reading the Republican memo report.
1. Who wrote this memo? The Honorable Devin Nunes Mr. Nunes, Republican of California, is the chief architect of this memo, though it was drafted by a Republican staff member, Kashyap Patel.
With backing from Speaker Paul D. Ryan, Mr. Nunes led Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee in a party-line vote rejecting the simultaneous release of the Democrats’ 10-page rebuttal memo, which they have portrayed as explaining inaccuracies and misleading omissions in this one.
2. I noticed that, public release of classified information by unilateral action of the Legislative Branch is extremely rare and raises significant separation of powers concerns. While House rules allow a rarely used procedure to make classified information public without executive branch approval, the White House does not acknowledge that Congress has legitimate authority to do so.
3. The White House review process also included input from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Department of Justice.
This letter from Donald F. McGahn II, the White House counsel, says that the administration consulted with the office of Dan Coats, the director of national intelligence, and the Justice Department.
Notably, Mr. McGahn does not say either institution concurred that it was a good idea to make the memo public. In recent days, the F.B.I. has publicly expressed “grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy,” while Mr. Coats’s office has declined to comment.
4. Then-Acting DAG Dana Boente, and DAG Rod Rosenstein each signed one or more FISA applications on behalf of DOJ. Now with that said, Mr. Boente and Mr. Rosenstein are both Trump administration officials — the general counsel of the F.B.I. and the deputy attorney general, respectively. Under Justice Department regulations, it is Mr. Rosenstein who appointed and oversees Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel leading the Russia investigation. Mr. Rosenstein controls the scope of Mr. Mueller’s jurisdiction, can block him from taking steps like issuing indictments and is the only official who can fire him.
Now, take a look at this point. If Mr. Trump used the wiretapping of Mr. Page to justify removing Mr. Rosenstein, so, the president could install someone who might be more willing to constrain or end the investigation on him.
5. Neither the initial application in October 2016, nor any of the renewals, disclose or reference the role of the DNC, Clinton campaign, or any party/campaign in funding Steele’s efforts, even though the political origins of the Steele dossier were then known to senior DOJ and FBI officials.
David Kris, a FISA expert and the former head of the Justice Department’s National Security Division during the Obama administration, called this the “money quote” in the memo. The impression created by that line, he said, is “potentially problematic, and worthy of further review.” However, he said, if the applications did disclose that Mr. Steele’s research was funded by people who were motivated to undermine Mr. Trump’s campaign — even if they did not specifically name the Democratic National Committee or the Clinton campaign — “then the FISA applications would be fine.”
I will stop here with these first five talking point, just to see if any Trump supporter wants to refute these FACTS.
