As for the stock market going up and up during the Trump administration since he was elected has baffled many and now headed down appears to be to the undermining of the intelligence community with the GOP memo. However i'm sure someone else will put a different spin on why the stock market has dropped so far (right now it was headed back up this morning).

Looks like Trump is envious of KJU and Putin as it seems he wants his very own military parade

BTW, I get the sense some persons may not really know about the actual composition and/or scope of the FISA Court; some seem to think it is some sort of "Star Chamber", dark and mysterious, a coven of sorts, working in the darkness; actually, it is, with the exception of the actual substance of the cases it hears, pretty much an open book; they even have their own website, with Annual Reports, Public Fillings, and other interesting information: http://www.fisc.uscourts.gov/ Did you know the FISA Judges are appointed by the Chief Justice of The Supreme Court? Or that the Judges have fixed terms of seven (7) years? And that they only sit in session for one (1) week at a time (this last fact goes a long way towards explaining why there were several different Judges involved in the Page warrants: it was just the Judge who happened to be sitting for that particular week). Sometimes, what is 'sold' to the public by the tin hat crowd or the Trump apologists as dark and mysterious is simply mundane... Here is a link to the FISA Court Rules of Procedure, as publicly posted on their website: http://www.fisc.uscourts.gov/sites/d...0Procedure.pdf <O>

Then again it could be as Senator Nunes alleges an abuse of power and police corruption.

Not really since it is what the Congressman (fixed) alleged in the memo.

Not really sure if you are aware, but Nunes is not a Senator: Nunes is a Congressman; it helps to keep facts straight when trying to make an argument. Also, it is as you said: Nunes alleges; as with many of the other matters he brings up, he is long on rhetoric and very, very short on giving any actual facts or proof of what he alleges. He kind of reminds me of Senator Joe McCarthy, who alleged all over the place in the press, ruined lives and reputations, created distrust, confusion, and obfuscation, and, in the end: bupkis. Just sound and fury signifying nothing, much like his idol, Trump...

Certainly not from me because I actually make an effort to provide actual cites and factual bases for what I present, you know, rather than make a weak attempt at wit or a snide remark that adds nothing to the conversation, like some others...
![]() Just as I don't have any political party alliance, I also do not believe in idols, given so many of them very often are shown to have 'feet of clay'; but I do have a great respect for facts and truth... <O>

Edit: Oops, sorry. I saw the words "wall", "baseless allegations", "spreading distrust", and "confusion". My mind just automatically made the leap.

Although much has been made of the Nunes/GOP memo and the Democrats' rebuttal memo the real interest should be in the Department of Justice's inspector generals investigation that is ongoing. Without much attention, Michael Horowitz has been working away for a year on a sprawling probe of the FBI’s handling of the 2016 investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server.

The real outcome of this is unsure but if Horowitz comes up with any severe criticisms of former F.B.I. director Comey and his handling of the Clinton probe it may effect any obstruction of justice charge that Robert Mueller may try to make on Trump. Things are getting interesting. Quote:

This qualifies as politics, right?
