FISA Firestorm: Sean Hannity Gives MAJOR Clue About “TICK TOCK” Set To Drop TOMORROW
Sean
Hannity made his triumphant return to Twitter Saturday night. The
conservative firebrand thanked all his followers for their support
and warned Monday was going to be a “big day.”

Hannity
then warned “Monday’s a big day…tick tock.”
“I’m
baaaccckk… a lot to say- Thanks for the support all you deplorable,
irredeemables. Can’t get rid of me that easy. Too much work to do
exposing #deepstategate—Monday’s
a big day…tick tock,” tweeted Hannity.
On
Sunday evening, the Fox
News host
dropped a major clue about what tomorrow’s broadcast may cover.
Firing off yet another “Tick Tock,” warning, Hannity tweeted
Byron York’s piece for the Washington
Examiner,
which says House Intelligence Committee Republicans could vote to
release the FISA abuse memo tomorrow. Does the Fox News host already
know the Committee will vote to make the “shocking,” four-page
document public?
The meeting will give the committee its first opportunity to vote on the question of releasing the so-called “FISA abuse” memo that has captured Washington’s attention in recent days. Since the GOP holds a 13 to 9 advantage on the committee, the overwhelming likelihood is that if there is a vote, the panel will decide, along party lines, to release the memo.
At that point, House rules call for the committee to await a decision by the president on whether he supports or opposes release of the memo. President Trump has made clear he supports release, so the memo could be made public quickly.
The public might also learn committee Democrats’ plans for a counter-memo. Ranking member Rep. Adam Schiff has accused Republicans of cherry-picking and distorting the intelligence underlying the GOP memo, and last Wednesday announced that Democrats would “draft our own memorandum, setting out the relevant facts and exposing the misleading character of the Republicans’ document.”
As The
Gateway Pundit‘s
Jim Hoft reported,
reporter Sara Carter told Fox News on Sunday that she estimates
the memo will be released “probably within the week.”
Carter
warned the FOX anchors, “This is really going to be big!”
“FOX
and Friends“ host
Pete Hegseth said the release may be on Monday.
CARTER: We know that probably within the week, now I’m not guessing tomorrow. I’ve been hearing different things. The House Intelligence Committee will go to a vote on this first. This is what has to happen first. We know that the president right now, according to my sources, is not going to object to the release of the memo and I think that’s what’s most important here.

Trump Ignores DOJ Warning, Notifies Sessions He Wants FISA Memo Released
27
January, 2018
President
Trump broke with the Department of Justice last week by calling for
the release of a four-page "FISA memo" purportedly
summarizing widespread surveillance absues by the FBI, DOJ and Obama
Administration, reports the
The
President's desire was relayed to Attorney General Jeff Sessions by
White House Chief-of-Staff John Kelly last Wednesday - putting the
Trump White House at odds with the DOJ - which said that releasing
the classified memo written by congressional republicans
"extraordinarily reckless" without allowing the Department
of Justice to first review the memo detailing its own criminal
malfeasance during and after the 2016 presidential election.
The
decision to release the memo ultimately lies with congress.
Somehow
WaPo knew that Kelly and Sessions spoke twice last Wednesday - once
in person during a "small-group afternoon meeting" and
again that night over the phone.
Trump
"is inclined to have that released just because it will shed
light," said a senior administration official who was speaking
on the condition of anonymity to recount private conversations.
"Apparently all the rumors are that it will shed light, it will
help the investigators come to a conclusion."
The
memo, written by staffers for House Intelligence Committee chairman
Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA), was made available for all Congressional
House members in mid-January for viewing in a secure room. Lawmakers
who have seen the document have called for its release to the general
public, as it is said to contain "jaw dropping" revelations
of extensive abuse of power and highly illegal collusion between the
Obama administration, the FBI, the DOJ and the Clinton Campaign
against Donald Trump and his team during and after the 2016
presidential election.
"I
have read the memo," tweeted Rep. Steve King (R-IA), adding "The
sickening reality has set in. I no longer hold out hope there is an
innocent explanation for the information the public has seen. I have
long said it is worse than Watergate. It was #neverTrump &
#alwaysHillary. #releasethememo."
"It
is so alarming the American people have to see this," Ohio Rep.
Jim Jordan told Fox News. "It's troubling. It is shocking,"
North Carolina Rep. Mark Meadows said. "Part of me wishes that I
didn't read it because I don't want to believe that those kinds of
things could be happening in this country that I call home and love
so much."
Immediately #ReleaseTheMemo #FISAMemo & ALL relevant material sourced in it. Every American needs to know the truth! We wouldn't be revealing any sources & methods that we shouldn't; only feds' reliance on bad sources & methods.
Meanwhile,
The Washington Post is spinning Trump's desire to release the memo as
yet another example of the President's "year-long attempts to
shape and influence an investigation that is fundamentally outside
his control," pointing to reports that he wanted to fire special
counsel Robert Mueller III last summer (which Trump denies). WaPo
also points to Trump's complaints over Deputy Attorney General Rod
Rosenstein for not properly supervising the Mueller probe, and the
President's alleged comments to former FBI Director James Comey
demanding loyalty and asking him to back off the investigation into
former National Security advisor Michael Flynn, who was fired for
misleading Vice President Mice Pence over his contact with Russians.
In
other words, Trump has been resisting an active investigation which
has yet to prove any collusion, and which has experienced significant
mission creep into the personal finances of the Trump team - and The
Washington Post is spinning it as Trump once again interfering with
an investigation.
So
now the President is calling for the release of the four-page FISA
memo, which will reportedly put an end to the Russia investigation
while quite possibly setting the stage for the criminal prosecution
of those involved in trying to frame Trump.
That
said, the Washington Post article appears to be nothing more than an
exercise in pearl clutching over Trump's demands for loyalty - as the
paper notes that nothing the President has done is likely to lead to
criminal charges.
To
prove obstruction of justice, Mueller would have to show that Trump
didn't just act to derail the investigation but did so with a corrupt
motive, such as an effort to hide his own misdeeds. Legal experts are
divided over whether the Constitution allows for the president to be
indicted while in office. As a result, Mueller might seek to outline
his findings about Trump's actions in a written report rather than
bring them in court through criminal charges. It would probably fall
to Rosenstein to decide whether to submit the report to Congress,
which has the power to open impeachment proceedings.
As
Trump faced growing questions about everything from his June
directive to fire Mueller to his more recent grousing about
Rosenstein, the White House was largely silent. In response to
several specific queries, White House spokesman Hogan Gidley offered
a written statement that addressed few of them. -WaPo
"The
president has been clear publicly and privately that he wants
absolute transparency throughout this process," Gidley said in
the statement. "Based on numerous news reports, top officials at
the FBI have engaged in conduct that shows show bias against
President Trump and bias for Hillary Clinton. The president has said
repeatedly for months there is no consideration of terminating the
special counsel."
So
future leaders of the free world take note; you're not allowed
express dissatisfaction when a federal agency allegedly colludes with
the previous administration and an establishment candidate to rob you
of an election using unverified evidence from Russian officials; it
is also frowned upon to have a problem with a kangaroo-court witch
hunt launched to push the invented narrative.
While
lawmakers have been incredibly mum over the specifics of a four-page
"FISA memo" containing allegations of FBI and DOJ
malfeasance against then-candidate Donald Trump and his team, Rep.
Trey Gowdy appeared on Fox
News Sunday where
he dropped the most telling breadcrumbs about the contents of
the memo to date.
“If you think your viewers want to know whether or not the dossier was used in court proceedings, whether or not it was vetted before it was used, whether or not it’s ever been vetted — if you are interested in who paid for the dossier, if you are interested in Christopher Steele’s relationship with Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee, then, yes, you will want the memo to come out,” -Trey Gowdy
“Do
you want to know that the Democratic National Committee paid for
material that was never vetted, that was included in a court
proceeding?”
Gowdy asked rhetorically.
“Do
you want to know whether or not the primary
source in
these court proceedings had a bias against one candidate? Do
you want to know whether or not he said he’d do anything to keep
that candidate from becoming president?”
While
it's not clear who the "primary source" is, it's possible
that Gowdy is referring to Christopher Steele, the former MI6 spy who
assembled the dossier - or "Senior
Russian Officials" which the "Trump-Russia" dossier
heavily relied on for information.
Perhaps
the Russians preferred Mrs. Clinton over Mr. Trump, as the former
came equipped with a pay-for-play charity that was utilized during
the Kremlin's purchase of Uranium One - giving Russia control over
approximately 20% of United States uranium. Bill Clinton, notably,
also met with Vladimir Putin at his house the same
day he
gave a Moscow speech for a cool $500k to an investment bank which
then upgraded Uranium One stock.
A close associate of Bill Clinton who was directly involved in the Moscow trip and spoke on condition of anonymity, described to The Hill the circumstances surrounding how Bill Clinton landed a $500,000 speaking gig in Russia and then came up with the list of Russians he wanted to meet.
The documents don’t indicate what decision the State Department finally made. But current and former aides to both Clintons told The Hill on Thursday the request to meet the various Russians came from other people, and the ex-president’s aides and State decided in the end not to hold any of the meetings with the Russians on the list.
Bill Clinton instead got together with Vladimir Putin at the Russian leader’s private homestead.
The friend said Hillary Clinton had just returned in late March 2010 from an official trip to Moscow where she met with both Putin and Medvedev. The president’s speaker’s bureau had just received an offer from Renaissance Capital to pay the former president $500,000 for a single speech in Russia. -The Hill
In
comparison to the egregious pay-for-play facility the Clintons
offered Russia, the FBI allegedly relied on the unverified
34-page "Trump-Russia" dossier to obtain a FISA
surveillance warrant against one-time Trump campaign advisor,
Carter Page. Prior to the FISA warrant, GOP Congressional
investigators also believe the dossier was used to launch the
original investigation into collusion between Russia and the Trump
campaign before Robert Mueller was appointed as special counsel.
Rep.
Gowdy, however, declined to confirm whether the dossier was used to
obtain the FISA warrant - noting that it was classified at this point
and he's not allowed to discuss it.
Gowdy
also said in the interview that he suggested
the memo be reviewed by the FBI and the DOJ prior to its release,
however he says that the document contains information already
provided by these agencies, noting "There's nothing in this memo
the Department is not already aware of."
