    I'll be the first to admit, that it might be true that I/others didn't want to hear negative publicity about President Donald Trump. But the same is on the other side as well. Just like the President was under investigation, those who participated are now under investigation. It's better for them to be cleared, then not.

    If they're not cleared and the worst offenses are confirmed, do you really want a SS USA? I don't.

    I trusted the IG to do this, but I’m fine with a competent Us attorney looking at it

    "The thing I'm proudest of is we, coincidentally, we were each in a different part of the country and we were each talking to groups of people that were being televised. On the same day, purely coincidentally, we were asked what are you proudest of from your administration? You know what I said—he said the same thing, though probably a bit more clearly than I did: Not one single whisper of scandal," -Uncle Joe Biden

    This is the entire point now, the only one that has mattered all along.

    You’re welcome. I’m glad you’ve come around on unnamed sources.
    He sounds fine. If AGs from two presidents found him credible, I’m inclined to think he’s probably a good choice.

    Loretta Lynch also signed the first FISA application that Comey pushed without an ounce of verification.

    Exactly....they are absolutely panicking. And if investigated right, we won't have to hear what a wonderful president Obama was much longer because the crimes of his administration was orchestrated by him, the DNC, and Clintons.

    The media would be even further discredited as well. Pitty.

    We hear more and more about this every day. The Democrats need to smear Barr before the allegations take root regardless of the obvious validity of the allegations. I foresee more tantrums in the near future.

    More details coming to the surface.

    "Former Rep. Trey Gowdy said on Monday there is damning evidence out there for investigators to find as they examine the FBI's conduct in the early stages of the Trump-Russia investigation."

    ""I can tell you it is even worse than what you described," Gowdy replied. "It is what you described, in addition to the withholding of exculpatory information."
    Gowdy said the FBI made no effort to corroborate the dossier until after it was used in the application and a renewal."

    "Gowdy got even more specific when he made a plea: "To whoever is investigating this: Tell them to look for emails between Brennan and Comey in December 2016.""

    Tin foil hat is "Trump Russia Collusion", which you were all in on.

    Deep State has been proven through the Strzok-Page texts, unmaskings with Samantha Power's name on it - that she claims she did not do, Clinton-Steele Dossier getting passed to Bruce Ohr, and the FISA process being abused.

    You're living in a fantasy world, while reality is passing you by. You can live there, but just like the election, you will be left on the wrong side of history yet again.

    I just added them with the investigation into the inception of Crossfire Hurricane. Those are "Watch List" individuals that could now get implicated.

    Hold on a minute. Now you think that starting an enquiry means that someone has found evidence of crimes? The means that the investigation into Trump was started because someone found evidence of crimes.

    Did you really mean to say that?

    Personally, I am not bothered by this. At all.

    I think that there was plenty of probable cause to start investigating some people associated with the Trump campaign, so this is all going to end in another big nothing burger. Prepare to be disappointed. At which point you will complain about deep state, etc, even though this is someone hand-picked by Barr, who was himself hand-picked by Trump because of his obvious bias toward Trump.

    But if your suspicions are correct and there was a conspiracy against Trump that resulted in starting an investigation without probable cause, I will not be bothered. At all. On the contrary, I would welcome such corruption being exposed. The best way to expose corruption is to shine a light on it.

    Which makes the White House's efforts to obstruct oversight quite interesting. Trump and the White House hate transparency. They hate being accountable themselves.

    Who is panicking? You have to know that this is an investigation that is designed to stir up the base, but really do nothing.

    Tell us professor, what term would you prefer we apply? Let's look at Vicky Nuland. Going all the way back to Bush's administration, Vicky's been meddling in Ukrainian elections. Vicky's black ops transitioned just as smoothly as the incoming Obama admin. did. Despite Obama, and her new boss Hillary wanting to "hit the reset" and be "more flexible" Nuland never slowed down. https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/06KIEV1706_a.html < 2006
    https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Document:A_new_US_puppet_government_for_Ukraine 2014
    After Yanukovych's coup, Vicky conducted oppo research for her boss Hilda. Yanukovych black ledger was "found" in Ukraine and given to the FBI by Nuland. Steeles dossier also found it's way to Nuland even before the FBI used it to get Pages FISA warrant. Vicky BTW "retired" inauguration day 2017. Deep state? Nope, career criminals
