"My understanding is they haven't been the ones requesting this information," she said, adding that it's unclear why Democrats would "consider themselves randomly invited to see something they never asked to."

The White House has invited two senior House Republicans — and no Democrats — to a Thursday briefing to facilitate access for lawmakers to information about an FBI informant involved in the investigation of Russian contacts with President Donald Trump's campaign.
The briefing, coordinated by White House chief of staff John Kelly, was agreed to Monday when Trump met with FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to discuss Congress' demands for these classified do ents.
Looks like there is definitely one side politicizing intelligence.

disingenuous as always
That's monumentally re ed. I didn't think anyone capable of typing complete sentences could be duped by Huckabee but I guess I was wrong.
iow
it's not an intelligence briefing, but a political meeting between Repug pols and Repug-appointed security bureaucrats.
Looks like they are avoiding giving Schiff the opportunity to run outside and call CNN and give them the intel.
Looks like they are avoiding giving Feinstein the opportunity to feel pressured to release the intel.

Do you actually believe your spin, TSA?
Not too far off.
If you think this intel isn't going to be leaked almost immediately by the GOP to blunt Mueller time, you are an idiot. The purpose of the meeting is to coordinate messaging, and keep the Democrats in the dark about how to respond.
Keep drinkin the Kool-aid.
Actually the purpose of the meeting is to come to an agreement on the production of the do ents that are currently being withheld by the DOJ and FBI.
and Nunes will selectively produce/leak immediately everything that fits his objective, while hiding his non-leaked stuff from the Dems
Why make it completely partisan?
It can't be to stop leaks because the Republicans leak.
Nunes has threatened to impeach Rosenstein for not coughing up the docs Nunes wants.
Won’t be able to leak and get away with it set up like this. Genius.
why the secret separate meeting, TSA?
"Spygate"
There would be nothing more transparent than having Democrats in such a meeting. Since allegedly the material will 'leak' anyways, what's there to fear, tbh?
Heck, if they suspect they have a smoking gun, why have a private meeting at all? The President can unclassify any do ent on the spot.
The right is gonna pay dearly for knee jerk usurping of any government responsibility. You get a Hillary like figure who follows these clown’s attempts to dominate, get ready for real pain much more pain than, god forbid, a black president...

technically, intelligence has been excluded from the white house for about a year and a half now.

It's so quiet you can hear a conspiracy drop
Waiting for the next Dilbert cartoon for guidance.
