Steve Schmidt likens the Nunes memo to Geraldo opening Capone's empty safe except "back in those days there wasn't a TV network dedicated to telling you that, in fact, there was great treasure in the empty safe. Now there is." pic.twitter.com/FkkoJDtUFu

The memo is largely devoted to discrediting the decision to monitor Carter Page because some percentage of the intelligence came from a source deemed to be prejudiced. The memo fails to discredit the substance of the case or deal with other justifications for monitoring Page.

Rosenstein okay’d an application for either the 3rd or 4th FISA warrant on Carter Page, who’d already spent years under investigation for being a potential knowing agent of a foreign power. A judge then approved it.
They want you to be upset about this.

I was one of the most Conservative Members of Congress. I've been an outspoken Conservative on the radio for the past 4yrs.
But I tweet that I think this memo release is a partisan & dangerous act by Republicans and today I've lost 1,000 Conservative followers on Twitter.
