    You don't have it straight. It has been adequately explained, you simply choose not to believe it, instead trying justify its relevancy by leveraging the will of the Democrats not wanting it to be released as it is misleading. Your logic train is broken.

    https://www.politico.com/story/2018/02/02/democrats-trump-obstruction-386078

    It tells me and everyone else what has already been reported, that they don't want it released because it is misleading and inaccurate, which it is.

    It empowers the plebeians like you and CML to believe something that is not true, and believe the FBI is corrupt, which it is not.

    That is not the logical conclusion in any way shape or form.

    You somehow don't know the difference between cause, investigation, and evidence.

    I would recommend the following resources for your consumption: https://www.ebay.com/i/302506627983?chn=ps

    Thanks, ready slowly, noted you referenced Section 1804 A3 and A4. And here is what it ACTUALLY SAYS:

    You don't have to establish anything. You have to provide the facts and circumstances you relied upon to believe the person is a foreign agent.

    Have a seat, clueless idiot.

    DNC emails get hacked- “who cares how they were obtained, what’s important is what’s in the emails”.

    There's a difference between using improperly obtained information as part of deciding who to vote for or for that information to be used in the court of public opinion, it's a VERY different thing when you are talking about improperly obtained information, biased information, or unverified information as part of a criminal investigation or using that information to obtain secret warrants to spy on Americans....or on politicians and their campaigns. I'm sure even you are capable of seeing the difference.

    There's also a difference between improperly obtained information and properly obtained information. The FISA warrants were properly obtained, and this memo does not in any way contradict that.

    Has anyone else noticed that not a single conservative poster here, Twitter poster, blog, Fox news etc has once been able to actually attack the competence and credibility of the actual entity known as Fusion GPS and the British spy.

    Notice how Fusion GPS has a well respected history of work and Steele has been a well respected competent former British spy whose expertise is Russian intelligence. Notice not a single conservative leaning poster or Trump apologist is willing to even attempt to put down their competency.

    They can only scream "The DNC HIRED THEM!".

    Trump is too stupid to realize that not releasing this memo makes him look even worse. Oh well, he's already losing bigly so what's another setback to his presidency.

    The b*stard. I knew he'd do this. Mr. trump doesn't believe in democracy or a free press. He only believes in himself, and he's a traitorous pathological liar with a massive inferiority complex that he compensates for by constantly praising himself.

    Impeach Mr. trump.

    Wrong.

    His opponents are worked up, his supporters support him and people who don’t pay attention won’t ever know. He did the smart thing for himself politically.

    Who cares about angering your opponents as long as you don’t lose your supporters and don’t provide anything for the voters who don’t pay much attention to get work up over

    The Dems Memo can still be released without the president, right? It can be declassified through other means.

    Not that it matters.

    They don't really want it released because it would be irresponsible given the nature of the classified information they intentionally included in the memo so that it couldn't be released. Basically that memo actually does what the FBI and DOJ lied and said the Nunes memo did.

    It matters. It ****ing matters. Don't assume that it gets released anytime soon if it takes a vote in the House. Hell may freeze over first. It's more likely that it comes out on the "down low." Not what I would prefer, but I'll be surprised if it doesn't come out, no matter what sick, perverted action Mr. trump takes in his defense of himself and his close relatives, country be damned.

    I do love how irrationally triggered Deckard always is. It's the reason I'd never block him, he's a constant source of unintentional comedy.

    So no one wants to actually make an attempt at discrediting the prior work history and competence of Fusion GPS and Steele and his intelligence career?
