It comes down to this: Is it better to release it and expose possible agency corruption at the highest levels? Or is it better to not release it by keeping it classified and just sweep it under the rug?

IMO if you sweep this under the rug it's akin to letting the potential Russian collusion with Trump campaign slide from the beginning as that was also classified at one time. Basically the same thing as the current memo in question potentially shows Russian collusion possibly financed by the Democratic Party.

How did the Dems. collude w/the Russians?

If you are in favor of releasing it bc you don't want it swept under the rug why not release the Dem. memo then? Read what the FBI director said. "we have grave concerns with material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy". What exactly is the FBI director saying with that statement.

The DEMS memo will also eventually come out. Sounds like we'll all get to read them soon.

The House Intelligence Committee has voted not to make the Democratic memo public.

Agreed, that's a bush league move, if you have nothing to hide, why wouldn't they release that.

If the FBI has concerns, I don't want either one released.
