The Memo that has Democrats Worried

Those who have seen the memo in question claim it is earth-shattering.  Republicans say that there are people who should lose their jobs over it.  The memo is only four-pages long, and as it circulates Congress, it is revealing a reality the Democrats are voting against being made available for public scrutiny.  The details are being described by Congress-critters as being “shocking,” “troubling” and “alarming,” with one congressman likening the details to KGB activity in Russia.

Does the memo expose the true tyranny and criminal activities being committed by the Democrat Party as they cry "wolf" against President Donald Trump?

After being viewed by the House Intelligence Committee, the Republicans were calling for it to be immediately made public.

“It is so alarming the American people have to see this,” Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan said.

“It's troubling. It is shocking,” North Carolina Rep. Mark Meadows said. “Part of me wishes that I didn't read it because I don’t want to believe that those kinds of things could be happening in this country that I call home and love so much.”

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz said he believed people could lose their jobs after the memo is released.

“I believe the consequence of its release will be major changes in people currently working at the FBI and the Department of Justice,” he said, referencing DOJ officials Rod Rosenstein and Bruce Ohr.

“You think about, ‘is this happening in America or is this the KGB?’ That's how alarming it is,” Pennsylvania Rep. Scott Perry said.

The Democrats have been unanimously voting against the memo's release - of which Republican Steve King of Iowa says is worse than Watergate.

The memo is said to expose a number of abuses of FISA by the Obama administration and Democrats who swarm through the deep state in the FBI and Justice Department.  The memo has been made available to all House members - but even that vote was along party lines, with Democrats voting against making it available for all members.

What are the Democrats hiding?  Why are they so intent on disallowing a transparent view into their activities?

This memo may be just a small piece of what House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., was indicating last December when he said investigators have uncovered evidence of abuse in the U.S. government's surveillance practices.

One wonders if it is connected to other Democrat Party sins.

Will it influence Judicial Watch's lawsuit calling for records regarding Obama's unmasking of members of the Trump Campaign?

Will it bring to light Hillary Clinton's 33,000 missing emails?

Maybe it will make people look into how the Clintons stole billions of dollars from the Haiti relief effort.

I am hoping that Democrat Party heads will roll.  Wouldn't it be nice to see Wasserman-Schultz, Schumer, Obama, and Hillary Clinton (to name a few) in orange jump shoots as a result of their criminal, and treasonous, activities during their mad dash to try to keep their political power in the 2016 Election Season?
