FULCRUM News February Recap: FISA Memos, Cryptos, Restoration
- Rep. Nunes' memo rocked the political world, revealing Comey, Rosenstein and others knew the FISA authorization to spy on the Trump campaign was based on frivolous/fraudulent info... which means they knew, more or less, "Russiagate" was a sham from day one.
- The U.S. Senate held a cryptocurrency hearing, and the takeaways were surprisingly positive overall, with some of the powerful Senators showing genuine curiosity in the new technology's potential, especially for younger Americans. Major cryptos including Bitcoin and Ethereum rallied double digits the next day in the wake of the hearing.
- New FBI text messages between agents Strzok and Page were released to the public for oversight purposes; the texts display such inherent bias that President Trump, upon reviewing them presumably, tweeted out "NEW FBI TEXTS ARE BOMBSHELLS!" on the 7th (https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/961270833569202176)
