I inferred the meaning of the word from our illustrious President.

Also the link works for me but it's a little sluggish.

What is it that you're trying to say? That the FBI was pleased with the firing of Comey, or what?

100 pages of evidence released that vindicate the Trump/Sanders claims that the FBI was in turmoil and very grateful for the Comey firing:

https://lawfareblog.com/i-hope-inst...ureaus-real-reaction-trump-firing-james-comey

Um. NO. That link says EXACTLY the opposite. In fact, here is their conclusion:

The bottom line is that the documents tell a remarkably consistent story about the reaction inside the FBI to Comey’s firing, and it is not the story the White House has told about an agency in turmoil. It’s very much the story, rather, that McCabe told the Senate a few days after Comey’s dismissal. Someone, the documents show, stood before the American people the week of the firing and told the truth about the FBI. It just wasn’t Sarah Huckabee Sanders or Donald Trump.
Did you even read your own link???

Trump and his minions claimed that the comey firing was good for moral and that he had the support of the fbi talk and file and that the fbi was in turmoil under comey. They letters released via a FOIA request do not back that up.


Surprise, surprise, trump lied.

holy crap, guys: Trump claimed that the Nunes memo vindicated him BIGLY!

dank is just using the Turnip's understanding of the word "vindicate" to describe his link.

How was that the 'process' Nunes used to send it to the White House for public release? The two things had literally zero to do with one another. There is no 'process' for this and there is no requirement that it be released to the full house at all, and certainly not for some random number of days. These are all things Republicans invented and they could have sent Schiff's memo over on Monday had they wanted to. They explicitly chose to block it on an entirely partisan basis.

So again, please try and explain to us why Republicans inventing requirements for Schiff's memo is somehow Schiff suppressing his own work. It's a transparent lie and you know it. The fact that you're trying to run cover for such an embarrassingly obvious lie shows you also have no interest in good or responsible governance. You're just emotionally cheering on your political sports team without thinking of the long term damage you're doing to the country.

Again you should be ashamed of yourself.
You sir, are so steeped in your alternate reality that you've become incapable of rational thought or even remotely honest discourse.

https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/02/politics/democrats-memo-russia-adam-schiff-devin-nunes/index.html

For the Democrat's memo to actually be released, it would have to undergo the same process that the Republican memo has gone through.

First, the House Intelligence Committee would vote to have the memo released to the public -- and if they vote for it, President Donald Trump would have five days to object to its public release.

When the committee voted Monday to release the memo spearheaded by House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes, the committee also rejected a motion from Schiff to release his own memo at the same time.

"Well, we are going to try to force another vote on this," Schiff told CBS on Friday about his memo. "The Republicans voted down the release of the Democratic response, which was quite breathtaking, because they said they were offering their own memo in the interest of full transparency."

House Speaker Paul Ryan's spokeswoman AshLee Strong said the speaker is open to the Democrat's memo to be released.

"The speaker is in favor of greater transparency," Strong said in a statement. "If it is scrubbed to ensure it does not reveal sources and methods of our intelligence gathering, the speaker supports the release of the Democrats' memo."

Haha, might want to attend to that beam in your eye as your article confirms I’m right.

You claimed that Republicans were following the ‘process’ by voting to release Schiff’s memo to the full House first when I said they could send it over to the White House at the same time as Nunes’s memo. Nothing in this article says releasing it to the full House is part of the process or required in any way. As I said from the beginning, that was a ‘process’ that Republicans invented in order to suppress alternative information.

So before you start accusing other people of living in an alternate reality or of being liars you might want to make sure you aren’t linking to articles that support them. You also might want to ask yourself if you’re looking at things objectively or honestly.

By the way it sure looks like Nunes was full of shit just like I predicted, huh. Maybe now you’ll join me on supporting ethics charges against him?

When were the child sacrifices at the pizza shop basement again? Before the primaries or after?
Trying to understand your timeline.. It's a bit of a mess.

The John Birchers just tweeted "We knew Hillary floridated the water for the Illuminati, but you guys are fucking nuts. And commie traitors."
Hey, the answers on Vice Channels, Hamilton's Pharmacopeia. This was the episode about DMT. Hamilton interviewed a major DMT proponent who said they were eating the children to get the adrenachrome from their pineal glands. Case closed. (Hamilton rolls his eyes).

With so many anti law enforcement people here, and people who condemn law enforcement without a trial or waiting for all facts to be in don't want to do the same here. Every time there is a cop shooting, hard take down, corruption thread, etc the same people claim that law enforcement is guilty. Yet now the same people don't act in the same manner, and are dismissing it. It's easy to understand why, they don't really care about the truth. It's ok when its Trump or the Repubs when there is at least some credible evidence that law enforcement fucked them over. They deserve it. Dismissing all allegations is easy when you hate who its going against. Yet someone allegedly gets their car searched illegally and the cops are 100% wrong every time around here. Flip flopping is neat.

Personally I'd like to see the Dem memo. But more importantly, I'd like to see all of these underlying documents that make up each memo, and the rest of the memos to come. Some of the allegations are pretty substantial, and if even some are true that American people should know. Wanting the truth isn't an attack of the FBI and law enforcement. If that's the case, every time law enforcement gets investigated on abuse its an attack on them. But as with the above example, thats not the case both ways. Pretty obvious why. I wish I could say I was surprised by some people'e hypocrisy here on these subjects, but I am really not.

I could be wrong here, but I don't think any of these FBI agents we're discussing here are alleged to have shot unarmed black men. Not that that matters for your flase equivalency.

This is some pretty incredible projection.

There is no credible evidence that anyone was fucked over in relation to this memo. If anything we need to open an investigation into why Republicans are attempting to subvert our intelligence agencies in order to protect the president from a criminal investigation into him and his associates.

His deflector shields went up automatically & he doesn't even know they came on.

Nobody but the Trumpublicans have suggested malfeasance on the part of the FBI. They've done it by deliberately omitting pertinent facts from the Nunes memo & tying it all to the Evil One, the hated Hillary & the therefore "biased" Steele dossier. They're not saying none of it is true, of course, just that it's "biased" like the investigation into the Gambino crime family...
