BigmanPigman's JournalThe Dems should be screaming this from the rooftops
but they never learn how to promote anything. The MSM won't give it much airplay since they are all about ratings/$ like they were during the election campaigns in 2016. Nothing has changed. We have our work cut out for us with the midterms. Do not take "the blue wave" for granted. All the elements and factors that got the fucking moron and the GOP elected are still in place.
We MUST all work hard up until the day of the election since NOTHING has changed since the last one. Russia is not deterred and is so still doing what they have been, social media hasn't put any real fixes in place to get rid of fake news and bots, the Kochs/Mercers/NRA/Religious Right are all donating huge sums of money to campaigns, Fux Ruse and Right Wing media is alive and well, gerrymandering is the same except for a few states, MSM still goes after ratings and follows the distractions, the GOP is even more blatantly immoral and the economy is still strong even though this week had a big drop it won't effect people much, etc.
We have to hit the streets and knock on doors, make calls, drive voters to the polls, and donate money in small sums. We can't afford to allow ourselves to become overly confident.
Southern CA is dry and cooking...very bad season
for rain. High temps and dry weather will contribute to another drought and more fires this year.
Nunes said that, "Releasing the memo was just phase one
and next he will be exposing the State Dept.". He said this on Fux Ruse. Does he really expect anyone to give a shit after this over-hyped, distracting nothing burger of a memo which was intended to make Mueller's house of cards go tumbling down?
Once again I ask, "How many GOP reps does it take to screw in a lightbulb?".

Graham and Flake have spoken out to say
that they are opposed to releasing the memo. Graham said the Senate hasn't even seen it so it it doesn't represent the entire GOP in both chambers as Ryan says it does. Flake is angry since it will cause unnecessary harm to the FBI and our security as a country.
I have been reading and hearing that the Senate has a few GOP Senators who are putting country over party so they have the power to go against the House on issues that require their approval.
Now everyone is down playing the importance of the memo.
They are saying it will not be seen as tumultuous as the W House and GOP have been hyping and were hoping it would be. DISTRACTION!
Nunes MUST GO!
Sign the petition to remove him from the House Intel Comm.. Janz is running against him. Nunes has been asked to be removed by Schumer and Pelosi. He is a stooge of the Fucking Moron.

However, he is still the Committee's chair and has been working to subvert its work in order to protect Donald Trump.3 If Paul Ryan really believes his own words that Congress is responsible for holding the executive branch accountable,4 he must now remove Nunes from the Committee.
Tell Paul Ryan and the rest of House Republican leadership: Immediately remove Rep. Nunes from the House Intelligence Committee. Click here to sign the petition.

It is clear that Trump and his cronies want the baseless Nunes memo released, even though members of his own party will not vouch for its accuracy, because it helps build their narrative that the Mueller investigation is a witch-hunt with Trump as its target.5 We now know that Trump reportedly demanded that Mueller be fired last summer, and the only reason Mueller is still on the job is because White House counsel stood up to Trump.6 It seems now that in lieu of outright firing, Trump and his lapdogs are doing everything they can to erode the publics faith in the investigation and undermine Muellers independence.
Devin Nunes was a member of the Trump transition team, and his independence has been suspect for more than a year. But his latest actions go far and above stalling his committees investigation: He is now actively using his access to classified information to interfere in a separate independent investigation.
Nunes conspiracy theory-laden memo attracted major attention in part because thousands of Russian bots engaged on Twitter calling for the memo to be released.7 In any other era, the claims the memo supposedly makes would be laughable. Reportedly, it attacks the Rod Rosenstein, the Republican who is supervising Robert Mueller, because he signed off on a warrant to spy on Trump associate Carter Page, based on credible reports that Page had been collaborating with Russian spies.8 The idea that the FBI wouldnt investigate him is ludicrous, but by dressing up fringe right-wing conspiracy theories as a memo, Nunes is making these absurd attacks mainstream with the ultimate goal of discrediting Rosenstein and eroding public faith in the independent FBI investigation.

When Republicans voted to release the memo, they voted against even allowing the minority report authored by Rep. Adam Schiff, which points out the flaws in Nunes narrative, to be released to members outside the Committee.9 They also refused to allow the Department of Justice to review the memo for accuracy or redact anything that might jeopardize the investigation.10 Whats more, without redaction, the public release of the so-called memo could jeopardize not only the effectiveness, but even the safety of the FBI and other law enforcement officials.11
Republicans in Congress might hope they can obfuscate and redirect our attention, but if we make it clear we are paying attention and demand that they put the integrity of our democracy first, we can build pressure on them to act.
Demand that House Republican leaders immediately remove Rep. Nunes from the House Intelligence Committee. Click the link below to sign the petition.
