FOX News: Trump overheard saying he is '100 percent' behind releasing surveillance memo

President Donald Trump was overheard telling a GOP lawmaker Tuesday night that he’s “100 percent” behind releasing a classified Republican intelligence memo detailing alleged surveillance abuses.

"Don't worry," the president reportedly told U.S. Rep. Jeff Duncan, R-S.C., on the House floor after delivering his first State of the Union address. “One hundred percent."

Duncan asked Trump to “release the memo,” a controversial document drafted by U.S. Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., chairman of the House Intelligence Committee.

  2. The GOP it seems recognize the existential threat the corrupted FBI represents to their future. Let this scandal by top Obama officials slide and the GOP will never win the WH again and will find it harder to recruit good canidates for national offices. They ought to go all Roman on former Obama admin officials involved in this bungled attempted coup.

  3. The Democrats are too cowardly to admit that the FBI has been politically corrupt since its inception. Have they already forgotten about J Edgar Hoover's harassment of Martin Luther King?
