The Nunes Memo annotated. Okay, it may have been my quick read, but, is it just me or is there no real there there?
"The document alleges that the FBI and Justice Department relied on the unverified Russia dossier compiled by a former British spy, Christopher Steele, to obtain court approval for surveillance on former Trump campaign foreign policy aide Carter Page." To which I reply, haven't we already dismissed this rumor? And the memo itself counters this narrative. And then "… the memo does not detail what other evidence, if any, the FBI and DOJ used to ask to authorize and sustain surveillance of Page. It also does not make clear that the FISA court only reauthorizes warrants in cases that are yielding intelligence."
