I'm not sure what you mean by "unhinged." If I or my agency were attacked for political expediency through cherry picking details and leaving out mitigating information - which is the claim - I'd surely be firing back at my accusers.
Everyone in the Trump camp believes the memo 100% truthful - which is the first problem. Those being accused are refuting the memo and everyone in the Trump camp believes they are liars - which is the second problem.
I seem to recall all of the backlash over Republicans clearing Clinton of any wrong doing or negligence in the Benghazi investigation - nobody in DC was to be trusted, Republicans were out to get Trump and under the sway of the Clinton political machine. But now, Republicans are to be completely trusted all of a sudden?
Come on, man.
What I mean by unhinged is the plethora of unfounded claims brought about by the left from shifty Schiff to the outrageous claims of Pelosi to Obama's Brennan of the CIA before and after the memo was released. Many of the things they claimed this memo would do if released was BS.
I see the ratcheting up of attacks as a sign these folks didn't want this information made public not because of national security and a list of faux concerns they gave but rather to keep hidden the actions of the Obama administration upper echelon of agencies and departments. This first memo was like unto someone taking a swipe at a hornets nest. The hornets which are well aware this memo brings damning implications to them, several who have given testimony before Congress, is quite interesting to watch. From what I watched this past weekend, some seem to be getting tripped up over basic questions.
The one interview that stood out above all others was the former spokes person for Kerry's State Department. Her name is Nuland. She was asked about Christopher Steele and told that Steele was very close to the higher ups at the Obama State Department. Now for the two terms of the Obama presidency that would include Clinton and then Kerry. You see this Steele character seemed to be 'real close' in a lot Obama's agencies from FBI, DOJ and yes the State Department. She did verify that he shared the dossier with the "higher echelon" too.
Who knew an ex British spy hired by Fusion GPS by the DNC/Clinton campaign to dig up dirt on Trump, who used Russian sources tied to the Kremlin would have such clout! He was influencing the State Dept, the FBI and the DOJ. And that some of these agencies used that tripe that has not been verified to obtain FISA warrants!
It stinks and you know it. But let the games continue, the truth will come out.
