Release the Kraken, er, Memo!
Hey Baby, Come Here Often?
BREAKING: Discovered late tonight that Chairman Nunes made material changes to the memo he sent to White House – changes not approved by the Committee. White House therefore reviewing a document the Committee has not approved for release. pic.twitter.com/llhQK9L7l6

Well, there’s something you don’t see everyday.
- The FBI attacked the Nunes memo in public, saying that it is not accurate and that releasing it would publicize classified information and would endanger national security.
- Comrade Stupid hasn’t read the memo, but has said he is 100% in favor of releasing it. Whatever it takes to squirt squid ink into the investigation, amiright?
- And now we learn that the memo isn’t the memo that the Republicans voted to release. The recused Rep. Devin Nunes does not deny changing the memo, but says that he just corrected a few typos and made a few other small changes.
The whole Nunes thing is nothing more than an attempt to gin up some validation to ultimately fire Mueller, it is literally the drowning Republicans swimming to a sinking ship.
UPDATE 1: Nancy Pelosi —
“From the start, Congressman Nunes has disgraced the House Intelligence Committee. Since pledging to recuse himself from the Trump-Russia investigation, Congressman Nunes has abused his position to launch a highly unethical and dangerous cover-up campaign for the White House. Congressman Nunes’ deliberately dishonest actions make him unfit to serve as Chairman, and he must be removed immediately from this position.”
Mock Paper Scissors 
Only if it doesn’t work.
Doing something about this will require the Senate to do something about it, because clearly the House is all in on this. As if the Turtle would allow that. Barr will suddenly find some high-sounding excuse to validate it and all the D’s complaining are ‘just losers’. The Great Rodentia Fucking of the 2018 Midterms continues apace.
They’re quite openly doing the bidding of their Moscow masters: https://www.thedailybeast.com/a-top-russian-spys-visit-to-dc-last-week-shows-putins-still-playing-the-trump-administration
This entire administration, root, branch and twig is nothing but a bunch of fascists, grifters and shestyorka wannabees.
It’s riddled through and through with corruption, and the leadership and rank and file of the GOP are all JUST FINE WITH THAT! (at least the ones not fleeing the party, burning their
SS uniformsRepublican membership cards, and disappearing into the woods to do partisan warfare so they can reinvent themselves as ‘principled conservatives’ for the next time they want to destroy the country a little more. )Their base doesn’t give a fuck so long as they get to beat up on anyone not in their tribe, and the money men don’t care who’s in charge, so long as they get their mitts on the money; they’ll come around to letting Putin and pals wet their beaks.
Goes on too long the only choice is to burn it down and salt the ashes.

The only question is will Ryan wipe his ass or not with the letter before he throws it in the trash. “The integrity of the House is at stake”
WHAT integrity of the House? Ryan has debased that for years. Hell the GOP has done that for decades. ‘Hastert Rule’ anyone?

but we’re supposed to believe him when he says the changes were purely ‘cosmetic’. that’s what a lot of people who go in for plastic surgery think, ‘rearrange the face and, big deal, nobody will notice.’ i guess he thinks that as long as they get the jist, nobody will care.
