There is nothing worse than a cornered Rat. Except perhaps two cornered Rats.
On the eve of President Donald Trump releasing the FISA memo which promises to torch the FBI and Justice Department, Congressman Adam Schiif and Sen. Chuck Schumer cooked up a late night scheme Wednesday to block the memo’s heralded release.
And right on cue.
This after the White House told FBI Director Christopher Wray that despite his objections, the memo would be released.
UPDATE: 11:20 PM EST Nunes Fires Back
“The vote to release the memo was absolutely procedurally sound, and in accordance with House and Committee rules. To suggest otherwise is a bizarre distraction from the abuses detailed in the memo, which the public will hopefully soon be able to read for themselves."

Deep State has tasked Schiff with throwing himself on train tracks to stop the memo release. Expect the bullshit to get thick.

Schiff says GOP changed memo it sent to WH from original it ok’d in cmte Monday. Schiff says GOP “felt it necessary to deceive Committee Members during Monday’s vote, by withholding the fact that it planned to send a different document to the White House.”

It’s clear that Chairman Nunes will seemingly stop at nothing to undermine the rule of law & interfere with the Russia probe. He’s been willing to carry the White House’s water, attack our law enforcement and intelligence officials, & now to mislead his House colleagues. 1/2

If @SpeakerRyan cares about the integrity of the House or the rule of law, he will put an end to this charade once & for all. 2/2
