    now that the liberal media and those afflicted with TDS cant deny there was a government operative gathering information from inside the Trump campaign on the Obama administrations behalf

    they are now in desperate spin mode playing the childish game of word semantics "Stefan Halper wasn't a spy he was an informant"

    OK lets look at the difference between a spy and an informant

    A spy is tasked, paid to go out and gather information covertly

    An Informant comes forward with information he obtained. he wasn't tasked to gather that information just information he obtained inadvertently by association

    As you can see Stefan Halper has been on the government pay roll through out the campaign season so he was paid to gather that information tasked to gather that information there for making him a spy

    I know what should happen with the people involved with this systemic corruption and attempted coup d'etat, but I know in my heart that they will live out their lives wanting for nothing.

    I think this too, but hopefully trump is different and we see these standardless collectivist who justify any action that advances their political good, held accountable.

    Good breakdown! And I wonder what the going price tag for a spy of Halpert's quality is these days. It would be interesting to see how much the Obama regime valued his services.

    Also it's interesting now that the Deep State's first line of defense (just basic denial and ridicule) has been smashed through they have now
    settled back into a new defensive posture...they are now forced to admit their spying but they are trying to portray it as a positive.

    James Clapper said it was a "good thing" that someone was secretly spying on the Trump campaign which seems to be a first place winning entry for the Bold Unapologetic Chutzpah Award (second place being a woman who said her affair with her husband's brother was a "good thing" for her husband because any bastard children would be genetically compatible with him.

    That is not likely.

    "[P]eople often want to take advantage of you in any way that they can. You've got to let them know who's the boss, and you can't take any crap. People rule in many ways. But whether through fear or respect your opponents, and even your friends must know they can't push you around. If they can, you're not the boss. They are. They also have to know that if they do try to take advantage of you, there is a price to pay. Before firm, be strong, and be fair, but if Someone tries to screw you, screw them back harder than they ever got screwed before." The Art Of The Comeback, Donald Trump with Kate Bohner, Random House, 1997. p. 228.

    Please cease using facts, logic, and standard definitions on leftists, because they hate that. Now they will have a headache until either Rachel Maddow of MSNBC tells them what to think about it or they find out that none of their usual leftist allied media outlets are covering that information reveal.

    Steele should have been indicted and extradited long ago.

    Absolutely nobody is surprised by this revelation. If they had the capability of being honest with us, truth to tell, not even those leftists who are going to deny the validity of this report.

    I'm not so sure about that.That was definitely the case under Obama's
    8 years but That was Then ... This is Now.
    Trump got elected because a majority of the Electorate were sick & tired
    of all the games Politicians play.Plus an abject loathing of the Mainstream\
    Media.In combination with Establishment Washington.
    As Americans breathe in a new form of Government { President Trump
    just issued 3 Executive Orders to make it possible to Fire or Demote
    Federal Employees } they can actually feel progress.
    Everything under the Democrats and Obama as titular head
    was arguably destructive to a better America.It also was arguably
    not by coincidence by rather design.Akin to the way BlackLivesMatter
    and - Occupy Wall Street - operated.President Trump is building us back
    from within.Less Taxes,Much less Rules & Regulations and once again
    making our Military a Superpower.No more pushing around Joe America.
    Denying our rightful Liberties and Freedoms.Infesting our Agencies
    with bureaucratic Liars and hacks.Who's Job was to herald and laud
    Obama marching orders.Many of which were outright Nefarious.
    Or a way to indoctrinate a Cloward & Piven goal.
    To bankrupt the Middle Class and make americans feel powerless.
    Actually having the American Dream stolen from us.

    Obama paid Halper $1 million over four years but the Russians only paid Hanssen $1.4 million over twenty plus years. And why would obama pay so much when Clinton had a sure thing going?

    Obviously because it was considered Important.Maybe crucial.
    Like why Random House saw fit to award Obama in the neighborhood
    of $ 60 Million for a Book without a manuscript.Because it was SO crucial
    for Americans to read precious Obama's point of view.

    And even the Left that can still think has finally caught onto the racket.

    “While so much of the nation has despised Washington, a gold rush has enthralled the place. It has, in recent years, become a crucible of easy wealth, fame, forgiveness, and next acts. Punditry has replaced reporting as journalism's highest calling…”

    “They gather, all the brands, at the self-referential festivals, like the April White House Correspondents Association dinner, whose buffet of “pre-parties” and “after-parties” now number more than two dozen– because a single banquet, it is clear, cannot properly celebrate the full achievements of the People Who Run Your Country. … The insider swarm has been known by various names: “Permanent Washington”. “The Political Class”. “The Chattering Class”. “The Usual Suspects”. “The Beltway Establishment”. “The Echo Chamber”. “The Echo System”. “The Gang of 500”. “The Gang of 600”. “The Movable Mess”. “The Club”. Mark Leibovich, This Town, Penguin Books, 2013, p. 8.
