White House problems with the Democrats’ “rebuttal memo” on the surveillance of Trump associates are genuine and the document could disclose “sources and methods,” California Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence confirmed.
He also somewhat backtracked on the Trump-Russia collusion issue, saying the Democrats’ definition of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia was much lower than potential criminal acts being reviewed by special counsel Robert Mueller. Collusion is not a crime under the federal statutes.
“I’ve never said there was proof beyond a reasonable doubt” about collusion, the California Democrat told reporters. “Our responsibility is not determining what can be proved to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. Our responsibility is to tell the country as much as we’ve been able to learn.”

So it appears that even Schiff came to his senses and decided it might not be such a good idea to release classified information.
I found this particular part of the story interesting.

If collusion is not illegal what has this whole investigation been about?
Rep. Chris Stewart, a Utah Republican, told CNN's Don Lemon on Tuesday that the FBI requested revisions or redactions of 47 items in the Schiff memo.

"It was obvious in the first two paragraphs, this can't be released. You read a little bit further, that can't be released," Stewart said. "You look at the footnotes, I think they've asked for revisions of 47 things in that memo. And that wasn't the White House, by the way, that was the FBI and the Department of Justice that asked for those revisions."

Yeah Schiffty is in deep now. He didn't factor in all the people unearthing all the skeletons from his past. He seem to lost some vocal support of his side as well. Wonder why. Well you reap what you sow. No deals scumbag.

It seems as if the Democratic party needs to be taught what the word classified means.
When you consider that the party LEADER, Hillary, thought that the word "Secret" was a deoderant, their ignorance is understandable.
