The Memo Released

"The Memo" was released to much fanfare and consternation depending on the preferred flavor of cool-aid one is drunk on. It was written by Republicans to appeal to the Republican base. As the party in power it gave the GOP a chance to control the narrative on a partisan political talking point. Nothing in it is actionable. To attempt to criminally charge anyone, all info would have to be released; not just what the Republicans cherry picked for maximum political affect. This would take away their control of the narrative and negate the political weapon they created. Democrats are upset because they have no control over the narrative and think that's not fair. The facts are yes, the Obama administration government spied on Trump's campaign. Yes this is bad. Yes, the Republicans and Trump both recently decided to continue using the exact same FISA program that they are complaining about now. Knowing full well that it had been used against them. Knowing full well that now they have the power to abuse the same program that has been unconstitutional since its inception. That's the narrative that needs to be heard. The problem isn't just the Democrats. Both Democrats AND Republicans have and continue to support and abuse this unconstitutional program of domestic spying on Americans. It needs to end. To do so we need to #votedifferent. Vote Libertarian.
