Here's the full transcript of the conversation reported in @sbg1's article, and it's well worth your time. Proud of my senator @MarkWarner's work on #TrumpRussia!https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/01/29/mark-warner-the-full-transcript-216543 …

A Warner quote, especially poignant given today's developments: "...the reckless behavior they're taking, which is now, "Let's just bloody up the overall reputation of the FBI and the Department of Justice." That's extraordinarily dangerous, extraordinarily reckless..."
-
Another Warner quote about the Nunes memo (see also, "prooftexting"): "I have been briefed and I have seen the underlying and when they refer to allegations, I’ve seen the underlying documents. You selectively pick documents out of a huge storyline and you can cook up a case."
-
Warner on serving on the Intelligence Committee (and why Nunes et al.'s actions scare me): "You know you’re going to hear things that you have to keep secret, that you can’t share, and you know if you do reveal classified information, people can die."
-
Warner on 2018 elections security: where "...lots of senators in both parties have been doing really good work is making sure that we have a series of recommendations about election security...I think we can have something.... I hope within the next 30 days."
-
IMPORTANT to note that Warner does NOT say the entire Russia Senate investigation will wrap in the next month - but he is hoping that they will be able to issue recommendations to secure the upcoming elections.
-
It's comforting to me to hear Warner say, "...not only do we need to find out what happened in 2016, but more importantly, we’ve got to make sure it doesn’t happen again..." [whether Russia or any other adversary].
-
Last one - Warner (1/2) "I think we’ll look back and say 2016 was a moment when the nature of conflict between nations changed; when tools of technology, misinformation, disinformation, cyber were used in aggressive, offensive ways...

Obama Admin pushed for the illegal surveillance of Trump's camp, and memo likely shows Obama actually participated in the fraud. All Americans shld be concerned the Constitutional republica can't exist if the 4th Amendment only applies to Dems.

It's pretty frightening to hear that Trump & corrupt GOP & their oligarch-puppeteers are looking to purge the FBI of all but those loyal to Trump. Please know that tens of millions of us citizen-patriots are willing to peacefully march &protest &shut down the nation if needed.

By weeks end, looking for several high ranking DOJ and FBI people to be fired. We understand McCabe just resigned. These people did extreme damage to this country with their underhanded attempts to negate the will of the people in the 2016 election.

Fair to speculate release of memo will blow back on those it is meant to protect?Are they really going to go to war to say FISA application unwarranted for Carter Page?
