    Um. I think you mean corroborated. More specifically, uncorroborated.

    Or as Mr. Comey called it "salacious and unverified".

    All that said, what in that memo did Schiff have issue with?

      My bad. But uncorroborated would be uncorroborated; minimally corroborated still means corroborated.

        This, and the House minority leader who calls Mr. Nunes "Dennis", are our finest. < sigh >

          Yes, but how much of it? That's why I want to see Schiff's hard spots with it.

            Comey didn't call the entire dossier "salacious and unverified". He was referring to one part--the only part that "salacious", by definition, could refer to.

            Here's some background from a well known liberal rag:

              So Comey didn't "unverified" the whole document.

              That doesn't change my desire to see Schiff's memo. I want to see how the hot dogs are made.

                Then you want to see the Steele Dossier itself.

                The memos are just working papers between staffers. They don't mean anything, and often they are strategic notes about how to play the angles or for the dumber Members idiot hit pieces created to give the boss talking points, e.g. the Nunes memo.

                The only stuff that is valuable to the 99.99999% of us in the gen pop would be the first pass analysis. The raw intel is meaningless without context and aggregation. Everything after the first pass analysis is politically-driven garbage (recall Cheney's cherry-picking to justify the Iraq smash and grab).

                And you don't want to see the first pass analysis because the aggregation of sources and methods will compromise our intelligence.

                So: you don't want to see anything. You want Congress to exercise robust oversight and you want John Q. Public to concentrate on sportsball and t-tty bars.

                  Agreed. It's kind of amusing, though, when you say you wish Trump would have released it. Did you think he would? Did you actually buy his "transparency" shtick?

                    They can if they want to. Given the desperate attempts to cover up the Nunes memo, we pretty much already know what's going to be in the Schiff memo (i.e. more of the same we've been hearing in the news for the last 15 months), and just seems like a desperate distraction from the real problems of corruption.

                    BTW, Roger Stone is reporting that Mike Flynn's lawyers are setting motions to dismiss his case on the account of the Nunes memo.

Until the memo pretty much everyone was willing to at least remain silent and passively support Trump, but this was a step too far for some and now you are starting to see the cracks. Those who were willing to say nothing before aren't able to remain quiet and are calling the memo out for what it was. I say keep pushing on that, make them take a stand on one side or the other.
                      Every time something breaks that is awful someone says what you just said. There are no cracks...no division. Sure some are CYAing in case of catastrophe but they are still 100% behind Hair Fuhrer and they arent even really pretending otherwise.

                      Leave this alone...let them hang themselves. You dont need a killshot if they are jumping off the cliff already.

                        Well even better than that...Nunes implies Schiff is the guy leaking stuff out of committee and right away Trump just happens to tweet about how Schiff is one of he biggest leakers in Washington. Someone should inform them if you dont want it to look like you are in cahoots you probably shouldnt say the same thing, randomly at the same time, about the guy who is going to take you down.

                        These guys think they are Meyer Lansky...in reality they are John Gotti. Well Teflon Don got away with it for a long time but sooner or later his Sammy "The Bull" will cut a deal and then end will be nigh.

                            NYT is asking the Justice Department to unseal the FISA application to settle all of this: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/05/u...st-unseal.html

                            WASHINGTON — The New York Times notified the Justice Department on Monday that it is asking the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to unseal secret documents related to the wiretapping of Carter Page, the onetime Trump campaign adviser at the center of a disputed memo written by Republican staffers on the House Intelligence Committee.

                            The motion is unusual. No such wiretapping application materials apparently have become public since Congress first enacted the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act in 1978. That law regulates electronic spying on domestic soil — the interception of phone calls and emails — undertaken in the name of monitoring suspected spies and terrorists, as opposed to wiretapping for investigating ordinary criminal suspects.

                            Normally, even the existence of such material is a closely guarded secret. While applications for criminal wiretaps often eventually become public, the government has refused to disclose the contents of applications for intelligence wiretaps — even to defendants who are later prosecuted on the basis of information derived from them.

                            But President Trump lowered the shield of secrecy surrounding such materials on Friday by declassifying the Republican memo about Mr. Page, after finding that the public interest in disclosing its contents outweighed any need to protect the information. Because Mr. Trump did so, the Times argues, there is no longer a justification “for the Page warrant orders and application materials to be withheld in their entirety,” and “disclosure would serve the public interest.”
