Russians Helping Rep. Nunes Flog Phony FISA Distraction (UPDATED)



There's a new move afoot by Republicans and their "allies" to discredit the Mueller investigation and distract from bombshells waiting to drop. One Republican in particular, who was on the transition team for Russian asset Donald "Rump" Trump, has been working overtime for the past year to derail any investigation into the Trump- Russia scandal (almost like he has something to hide as well, eh, Special Counsel Mueller?).  That, of course, would be California Republican Rep. Devin "Sherlock" Nunes.

So, here's the Business Insider headline: Russia-linked Twitter accounts are working overtime to help Devin Nunes and WikiLeaks. What are they helping him with now?
Republican lawmakers are pushing for the House Intelligence Committee to release a memo written by the panel's chairman, Rep. Devin Nunes, that outlines purported surveillance against then President-elect Donald Trump by former President Barack Obama's administration during the transition period. 
And Russia-linked Twitter bots have jumped on the bandwagon. 
#ReleaseTheMemo is the top-trending hashtag among Twitter accounts linked to Russian influence operations, according to Hamilton 68, a website launched last year that claims to track Russian propaganda in near-real time. [snip] 
The Russians and their agents at Wikileaks are plumping this distraction, too?  Whoodathunkit.

Nunes' memo must be loaded with solid intel!
A source with knowledge of the memo told Business Insider that the memo is "a level of irresponsible stupidity that I cannot fathom. Purposefully misconstrues facts and leaves out important details." 
Well, that certainly bears the Nunes hallmark all right!  And if it's an unfathomable level of irresponsible stupidity, it must be something Fox "News" Sean Hannity will be spoon feeding to his bug- eyed viewers in 3, 2, 1...

Let's hear from Rick Wilson again, shall we?



Andrew Janz is the leading Democrat challenging Sherlock in his red district (but recent polling shows Sherlock is vulnerable).  Let's see what we can do to help "retire" Sherlock so he can spend more time with his collusion.
