The Democrats released their rebuttal, and I use the term loosely, to the Nunes memo on Saturday. The choice tells me that they hoped few people would read it leaving plenty of room for political media spin. Rather than refuting Nunes memo the Democrat response only confirms that the FBI and DOJ relied on the debunked and discredited Steele Dossier to obtain FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign and presidency. Something stinks big time in DC.
Read the excellent article on the subject by Andrew McCarthy of National Review for details. … Hat tip J Soden
Great column today (Wednesday) by Conrad Black at National Review Online:

Submitted without comment as Mr. Black makes his point.
Off topic, but FBI related news worth noting.
The Shocking History Of Sexual Misconduct Within James Comey’s FBI:
“Richard Pollock on February 25, 2018
The Department of Justice inspector general sanctioned at least 14 FBI agents and officials for a range of improper sexual acts since 2014, and most of the misconduct occurred during former FBI Director James Comey’s term, The Daily Caller News Foundation has determined.
The public got a glimpse into the bureau’s sexual mischief when it was disclosed high-profile FBI officials Lisa Page and Peter Strzok were cheating on their spouses. Special counsel Robert Mueller dumped Page from his investigation on Russian collusion and later removed Strzok after he learned of their relationship.
After months of protracted discussions with the FBI, the bureau “found that the information was still incomplete.”
Congress denounced Comey’s refusal to open the FBI’s record and eventually led to the passage of the Inspector General Empowerment Act of 2016, which requires all federal departments and agencies to share all records with the IG. It became law on Dec. 16, 2016.
Horowitz told The Washington Post in December 2017 some perpetrators within federal, law enforcement agencies received light punishment for their sexual misconduct. The summary of incidents, listed below, confirms Horowitz’s findings.
Comey and Obama-era Attorney General Lorretta Lynch together fought Horowitz’s determination to fully investigate the bureau’s handling of of sexual misconduct charges.”
