The phone records situation is conflicting. It seems that Schiff publishing phone record data from an opposition party ranking member is a breach of protocol and against ethical standards, which if true should be condemned. 

 

HOWEVER we should also demand transparency from our government officials, elected and unelected alike. Similar to Wikileaks, I care more about the contents than how the information is exposed. Schiff is no doubt a snake, but at the same time, if there's concerning info in what he released, people should pay attention to that as well. 

You call Schiff a snake.  What do you call Nunes?

Try again, man. Open up your eyes to the gross corruption of the GOP and stop deluding yourself. Parnas was indicted and Rudy is being investigated by the feds for a reason. They're crooks and not particularly competent ones. Watching Rudy devolve from America's mayor to whatever this is is just sad at this point.

 

Nunes and Solomon were only swept up in this because they contacted said crooks.

 

Congress can legally obtain phone call records (not the content of the calls themselves) simply by issuing a subpoena. The Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled we don't have reasonable expectation of privacy over our call logs. Pulled from the Federalist:

 

 

You're free to not like it. But it's the legal rules of the road on this matter. None of these people would have had to worry about their call logs if they had not been crooks, or associating with crooks.

And ATT would contest it for any target, even regular criminal investigations, but apparently all too willing to get a shot at Trump.

Nunes got swept up because he was communicating with Parnas, who has been indicted. And you're more concerned with Schiff? :facepalm:

 

Schiff is a guy doing his job. Starting to think you and NDJ don't like that because it makes Republicans look bad. Full stop.

 

oh?  So you're fine if Barr subpoena's all of Biden family phone records?  I'm sure they would just hand them over.  Oh and since you trust any pretense of law enforcement you have to accept that Trump is just doing his job.

Yes they would because that seems to be how the law is set up.

You do realize that Joe Biden, Nunez, Schiff and all the other elected officials are public servants in the government, right? And as such their phone records on state devices are more than likely available to the public through a FOI request, right?

Again....from a former NSA lawyer.  You might want to research this a little and stop listening to QAnon.

Exactly. We the people could probably get ahold of Biden phone records if we wanted to
