What To Expect From The House Intel Memo On Surveillance Abuse
Each number is a corresponding explanation. Think of it like Google and Facebook having police powers. ,
It’s real, it’s big, and it should be bipartisan. Because when behavior like these agencies are accused of is excused, everyone is at risk (in the macro sense).
This is a currently unfolding story.
Do yourself and me a favor. If you are a Trump hater, don’t read this. Stick to your Trump wanted to fire Meuller” stuff.
1) The memo will likely be released to the public — eventually.
2) The memo is a summary.
3) The memo will provide facts.
4) The memo will detail wrongdoing, but readers should keep expectations in check.
5) Expect major pushback from surveillance state.
6) Expect major pushback from anyone who latched onto the Russia-Trump collusion theory over the last year.
7) Expect conflicting messages from opponents of the summary document.
8) This is the beginning of a process, not the end.
