President Trump's eldest son Donald Trump Jr. said on Saturday that the release of the GOP memo alledging surveillance at the Department of Justice (DOJ) serves as revenge for him and his family by holding FBI officials accountable.

"There is a little bit of sweet revenge in it for me and certainly probably the family in a sense that if they wouldn't have done this, this stuff would be going on. This would be going on at the highest levels of government," Trump Jr. said on the Fox News Channel referring to the allegations in the memo. "They'd be continuing doing it to my father, trying to undermine his actions."


Trump Jr. went on to say he wanted the probe into alleged ties between the Trump campaign and Russian election meddling to come to an end soon.
"Come to a conclusion already because you've been looking for two years, you've come up with nothing other than their own nefarious actions and their own collusions," he said.

The memo, drafted by House Intelligence chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), was released on Friday shortly after the president signed off on its release.

The document accuses Justice Department officials of improperly using information from the so-called Steele dossier to obtain surveillance warrants on Trump's former campaign adviser Carter Page.

Republicans say the release sheds light on what they say is bias in the FBI, though Democrats and intelligence officials say it poses a national security risk.

.......................

Nice of him to give more ammunition to Mueller and admit this was a clear obstruction of justice exercise.

This guy is dumber than his father.

This family is not the brightest.

They just admitted attacking the FBI and the DOJ was a revenge job........

If this does not piss off the Intel community even more......

1. Fredo weighs in. n/t

2. I don't know if it's stupid

Sure, he's not the brightest bulb. But it speaks more to the fact that he isn't scared. Not really. If it were ME, I'd be listening to my attorneys and not say one word. I'd be shaking.

The fact that he isn't scared means that he assumes that his father will protect him. I guess the question is can he (not will he, we know he will try).

So many republicans are willing to give this family a pass..............I wish we had some way to win back the Senate (too).

8. He, like his father

has never had any consequences for any action he's ever taken.

That's why none of them are afraid...a fine that they will never pay or that will be a tax write-off isn't a consequence for them.

[janterry]

12. It's what scares me about this whole mess

We know what they did - and why.....

I just don't trust our system to provide real consequences. It's like PT Barnum is president and there is no one to run him out of town

[Bettie]

19. That scares me too

I'm afraid that the next election will be close enough for congress to be fully weaseled in to Republicans and Trump and his ilk will just roost there in the WH until he dies.

[PatSeg]

16. For Junior,

consequences always came from his father. I think the only thing he fears is his father's wrath or disapproval. Meanwhile, he is not bright enough to keep his mouth shut.

[no_hypocrisy]

3. "certainly probably"?

Which is it, Brainless?

[sunonmars]

5. yeah that made me chuckle and proves this guy is not bright. whatsoever.

[smirkymonkey]

4. Hey Junior! Your father still doesn't love you.

Give it up. No matter what you do, Ivanka will always be his favorite.

[sunonmars]

9. and would murder you to save his own neck, you can be sure of it.

[Zoonart]

6. And there you have it...

they don't mind using your government institutions to get revenge on their enemies... like a crime family.

[sunonmars]

7. Donnie jr just completely undermined the "reasons" for the memo.

[MagickMuffin]

10. "Come to a conclusion already . . . . " Paging . . . Bob Mueller . . .

Donnie's ready and waiting for you. . . .

[Iggo]

11. Certainly probably?

Dude.

[Glamrock]

13. I feel you buddy!

And when you're arrested for multiple acts of conspiracy, There will be little bit of sweet revenge in it for Hillary and certainly probably the country.

[spanone]

14. hey donnie junior....i can't wait till Mueller rips you a new ass.

[Old Terp]

15. Since we know that Donnie Jr. and Jared met with Russians

after they had Secret Service protection, I assume that means that the agents are not required to testify that their charges met with enemies of the state. So, since at least some of these meetings came out, isn't it reasonable to assume that it's very possible that others happened? If Muller called in, say, some of Jared's agents, could they testify that there were other meetings? When an oligarch and any Trumps are in the same Postal Code, you have to think that they met.

[PatSeg]

18. That's a very interesting perspective

I wonder what the rules are regarding such things.

It also brings to mind when Junior gave up Secret Service protection last September for a short time because of "privacy concerns". Lasted about a week.

[PatSeg]

17. There are plenty of people

who are looking forward to "sweet revenge" and it won't be "little" either. Also it will be well deserved and a long time coming.

[Skittles]

20. he is certainly probably a fucking idiot

[wishstar]

21. His sweet revenge basking in Fox/Hannity bubble will be short-lived

I give them at most a couple more months of desperately blissful delusion before reality kicks in.
