if he fails to show up next week, will he be held in contempt? that, again, is something we would have to decide on as a committee. i think that may be part of the conversation, i don t know. again, we ll have to have a family conversation about that down amongst the intelligence committee for sure. i want to move on to the dueling memos from your intelligence committee, the republican majority memo that was released last week. now there is a democratic minority memorandum that s over at the white house. the president has another four days to decide whether to release it, what to redact, to eliminate, if anything. what do you think the president is going to do? that s from over. we had ours seen by christopher wray and he said everything in ours was fact walg. i think there are some things in
which means that ford f-150s are not. (giggles) which truck would you pick? the chevy. there you go. boom. that was obvious. plus it looks cooler. no doubt about it. now they know what to get me. ainsley: another declassified document set to shake up congress and this time it s the democrats turn. this will help inform the public of the many distortions and inaccuracies in the majority memo. we re going to insist that the department of justice and the fbi report to us on what actions they think are necessary so we can segregate any political interference from the white house. steve: well, the democrats rebuttal memo now heading to the president s desk as the house intel committee voted yesterday unanimously to make it public. so what happens next? brian: judge napolitano is
can we call that treason? why not. i mean they certainly didn t seem to love our country very much. the nunes memo. we think this will help inform the public of the many distortionis and inaccuracies i the majority memo. we have also asked as part of our transmittal to the white house that the up like the process that was used with the majority memo that the department of justice and fbi be consulted, that they have the opportunity to vet any information that they may be concerned about in our memo in terms of sources and methods. we want to make sure that those that are in the best position to vet that have the opportunity to do so. the department of justice and fbi have already had our memo for several days. we also want to make sure that any redactions that are made are fully explained to our committee
misleading picture of what s happened, you better release some additional information that gives context to that. why did they release the majority memo without offering the broader picture? i mean, release the majority memo if you feel that s important for the public interest, but then provide the democratic minority memo at the same time so you get a complete picture. but they staggered this thing. on that democratic memo, as it is we have been told, being scrubbed, it may be released some time next week or somewhere in the near future, congressman wenstrup said that the democrats did not want to release the democratic memo simultaneous but afterwards. is that the case? no, no. that s the reverse of what happened. the democrats said if you re going to be releasing this majority memo, which doesn t have context, which is misleading, which cherry picks information, then you ought to be releasing the democratic memo at the same time to provide a
released right away. you say that the documents we were just talking about, the evidence the fbi brushed stomach brought to justify spying out to be released to the public, what s the argument against tha? speak of argument against it would be there could be some information over the course of the application that will include sources and methods that may need to get redacted in the effort to argue against providing any of the related material that was sourced some might say we shouldn t be releasing any of it. the counter argument i would provided to that is anything at all that could possibly be released for the american public, it s one thing when you lead a majority memo that was released today. it s another thing when you get an opportunity to read the adam schiff memo when it comes out.
