Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    Byron York source provides evidence that Nunes cherry picked evidence for his memo, ignoring the other evidence implicating Carter Page, but York is not bright enough to realize that. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/memo-war-gop-to-release-memo-aimed-at-justice-department-while-dems-push-memo-aimed-at-gop/article/2647479 …pic.twitter.com/GZxkoK5JQD

        I think this might be why Himes is reluctant to say outright that Ds will release their memo or read from it if it becomes necessary:http://wapo.st/2EnjzMz

        At this point, the sources and methods people of good faith might want to protect are going to be subverted, perverted, or sacrificed to help enrich and shield the fat guy who played the asshole on TV's The Apprentice.

        That whole column is EXTREMELY weird. "The Democratic memo is thorough. Ours isn't, so it will set the narrative." And Byron buys it (because he works in bad faith I'd argue).

        The release of this memo is going to backfire. At minimum it is going to give lots of reporters threads to pull at.

        This is going to highlight why Carter Page was on the campaign. He was under active investigation for espionage so why was he on a Presidential campaign?

        Of course. That is what the Federalist Society is all about. No secret!

        something happened to Byron a few years ago ... his wattage has dimmed from 100 to about 40 ....

        York realizes it. It just doesn't fit his desired narrative.

        The question isn't was the evidence cherry picked. The question is did they break the law. This is what average Americans care about. Does the memo show that they broke the law? Only question that matters.
