someone who doesn't understand what a counterintelligence investigation is probably shouldn't be Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee

Flynn got prosecuted because they hate his guts. NOT BECAUSE HE COMMITTED A CRIME! That is ultimate old white guy privilege.

woooooooo Sally just hit back. She was concerned that the Rosenstein memo was "subterfuge" to conceal the real reasons for firing Comey.

nice, Durbin: So the "policy difference" that keeps being alluded to is that the Obama administration thought that there should be consequences for Russia attacking our election and General Flynn thought they shouldn't?
Yates: I mean, yeah. Protecting our elections from foreign attack shouldn't be a "policy position"

Yates: The Obama administration wanted to be very careful that they deterred Russia, without giving any appearance that they, themselves, were in any way influencing the election.
Integrity. Imagine!

Whitehouse: you'd have to be pretty dumb to talk on the phone with an adversarial nation's ambassador and think the person on the other end of the line *wasn't* under surveillance.
Yates: all I'll say is that Flynn wasn't under surveillance

This is the problem with the Horowitz report: it assumes a lot of knowledge about the meaning behind people's words, about the investigation itself, and about FISA protocols
