Any speed readers here, with legal knowledge, who can tell us what's important in the affidavit?? nt

1. What's really important was redacted; the important stuff we can know about is in the memorandum.

2. It's 14 pages. 90-95% of it is redacted.

I’m a slow reader. I read it in about the amount of time it’s taken me to type this on my iPhone to this point. The main point: revealing any more info would create real risks of obstruction, risks to investigators and witnesses, as well as real risks to national security and members of the intelligence community. Those risks were described with enough clarity to understand their critical importance.

4. There were

other points as well. Like the timeline. Which proves Trump and others liars. Which I'm guessing is why Trump never pushed for it's release.

5. Good point!

3. Patel and Corcoran are neck deep in it with the target

Corcoran signed the target’s false statement. Patel used Breitbart to further the conspiracy. Feds knew of at least 25 top secret documents illegally in the target’s possession.

7. I'd love to see that slimeball Patel in an orange jumpsuit.

I think we'll find out that he was one of TFG's most significant abettors and co-conspirators and that he's in this mess up to his pencil-neck.

6. Three words sums it it up: Trump. Is. Fucked.

8. I would say the handwriting on the documents

That could add “defacement of the documents” to his other egregious charges

9. This is a very good point. n/t

10. Not to mention

Could establish chain of custody to prove he was aware of them.
