Kaitlyn Schallhorn at Fox
News offers a piece on the Nunes memo.
The controversial memo
purportedly detailing federal surveillance abuses was declassified and released
Friday following approval by President Trump.
The memo, put together by
House Republicans, shows improper surveillance techniques used by the
Department of Justice and the FBI in the Russia investigation, GOP lawmakers
said.
Democrats have dismissed the
memo, arguing that it was selectively edited by Republicans to push a narrative
that the Russia investigation is biased against the president.
Here’s what we know about the
memo and its connection to the Russia investigation.
So what is this memo?
The four-page memo, put
together by the staff of House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Devin
Nunes, R-Calif., reveals improper use of surveillance by the FBI and the
Justice Department in the Russia investigation, GOP lawmakers said.
The memo did “raise concerns
with the legitimacy and legality of certain DOJ and FBI interactions with the
Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) and represent a troubling
breakdown of legal processes established to protect the American people from
abuses related to the FISA process,” it said.
