You have the patience of a saint. I had decided after ~5 posts. Garden-variety troll, nothing new or interesting.

Lets end this hijack. You go back to trolling, and we’ll go back to discussing trolls, as per the fucking thread title.

People who say “do your own research” normally don’t understand what doing research means. On this particular issue, I’ve read the IG report. I don’t think you’ve read the IG report itself.

If you’re being sincere, and I have my doubts, then I’d suggest being a bit more reflective as to why so many people are giving you a hard time. Being completely honest with you, you sound like the occasional physics poster the board gets that has proof of a \<fill-in-the-blank-of-something-physically-wrong\>.

Anyway, I’m done with the tangent, back to discussing trolla-la-la-fa-la-la.

I’ve read the IG report as well.

Lots of people believed Trump conspired/colluded with the Russians to win the election. We know that wasn’t true thanks to the Mueller Report. I don’t give a fuck if many people are giving me a hard time, I don’t need their validation.

So, being called a “female” is an insult in your book?

That’s exactly the sort of thing the physics nuts say when confronted. Bravo!

Once again, just for shits and grins, is it your contention that this year’s IG report did not rely on any information that became available AFTER the Nunes and Schiff memos were written?

Come on. There are 1058 threads about that started by easyphil. We got to read about it in THIS thread too?

The core claims of the Nunes memo were based on intelligence that Trey Gowdy saw. The Schiff memo and the media disputed what the Nunes memo was reporting. Schiff was on the intelligence committee and had access to that same intelligence.

[The IG, Nunes and Schiff](https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-ig-nunes-and-schiff-11576022741)

> Americans first learned about the FBI’s abuse of the FISA process in a February 2018 memo from then House Intelligence Chair Devin Nunes. The memo disclosed that the FBI had obtained surveillance warrants from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court against former Trump aide Carter Page ; that the dossier written by ex-British spook Christopher Steele and financed by the Clinton campaign had formed an “essential” part of that application; and that the FBI failed to tell the FISA court about Mr. Steele’s political and media ties.

> This was news, but Mr. Schiff and Democrats called the Nunes memo false and weeks later released a rival summary of the classified FISA evidence. Now the IG has settled the debate by confirming the details in the Nunes memo and exposing Mr. Schiff’s untruths.
> 
> The third line of the Schiff memo reads: “FBI and DOJ officials did not abuse the [FISA] process, omit material information, or subvert this vital tool to spy on the Trump campaign.” False. IG Michael Horowitz’s report lists the many and varied ways the FBI did all of those.
