There is a memo circulating in congress that details abuse of the FISA program, which is a spying program. The reaction to this memo is... dramatic to say the least.
“It is so alarming the American people have to see this,”- Rep Jim Jordon
“It's troubling. It is shocking," -Rep Mark Meadows
“You think about, ‘is this happening in America or is this the KGB?’ That's how alarming it is,” -Rep Scott Perry.
So what is this all about? We can't know for sure but what we do know is that the FISA program is supposed to be used on foreign targets only, not US citizens. I am guessing that US citizens were targeted and given the fact that every Democrat in congress voted against it, I am guessing it was one citizen in particular. Current President Donald Trump.
There is already a circumstantial case that members of the FBI colluded with the Clinton Campaign and Fusion GPS to spy on the Trump campaign. That would be hugely illegal and a scandal that would rock the country to its foundations. This memo might be the proof we need to finally prove that story to the rest of the country. And it might be the first domino that knocks down quite a few others.
But that can't happen unless we know what is in that memo. I already contacted my congressman and I encourage you to do so as well. Just a reminder though, many people are focusing on contacting Paul Ryan. This is counterproductive because unless you live in his district he won't care. You need to contact your own representative in order to have an impact. It doesn't matter if they are a Democrat or Republican, you deserve to know the truth. Tell them to release the memo!
Look up your member of congress here.
Contacting your senators might be a good idea as well.
I will continue to follow this story closely. There was collusion in the 2016 election, but it wasn't between Donald Trump and the Russians. It was between the Federal Government and the Clinton Campaign and it looks like it will all be coming out soon...
