Republicans Release Controversial Memo
Washington (KROC AM News) - The Republican leadership of the US House Friday released a memo dealing with what they say was intelligence abuse by the Justice Dept. and FBI. The release came after President Trump decided to declassify the memo.
Here is the announcement from the US House:
The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence today made public a committee memo with information on abuses of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Chairman Nunes issued the following statement:
“The Committee has discovered serious violations of the public trust, and the American people have a right to know when officials in crucial institutions are abusing their authority for political purposes. Our intelligence and law enforcement agencies exist to defend the American people, not to be exploited to target one group on behalf of another. It is my hope that the Committee’s actions will shine a light on this alarming series of events so we can make reforms that allow the American people to have full faith and confidence in their governing institutions.”
