Soon, the dust will settle from special counsel Robert Mueller’s report, and Americans will have a fuller understanding of why prosecutors concluded there wasn’t evidence to establish that Donald Trump and Russia colluded to hijack the 2016 election. At that point, many voters exhausted by the fizzling of a two-year scandal, once billed as the next Watergate, will want to move on like a foodie from an empty-calorie shake. But a very important second phase of this drama is about to begin, as Attorney General William Barr, Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General Michael Horowitz

Wow! Sure sounds like a top-level cover-up of major crimes has taken place! This is Big Political Scandal times a zillion - just the kind of thing the honest and intrepid Woodwards and Bernsteins of the Fourth Estate say they can´t wait to investigate, them having such good, honest intentions and all. How bout it, guys?
Oh wait I forgot - they´re the most guilty part of the cover-up.

IF it is a case of "bureaucratic bungling", it is of a depth and intensity such that the stability and sanity of the people that carried it out is in question. Fanatics should not be in charge of government process, ever. Their security clearances should be revoked and they should be barred from participation in government, ever.
Their "bungling" has done GRAVE damage to this Country and its institutions.
Oops, is NOT going to cover it.
Besides, we KNOW it was intentional. The dossier was bought and deliberately inserted into government. Too many people were involved for it to be a mistake. And it was continued TO THIS DAY by people who KNOW it has no basis.
They are all guilty of conspiracy.

FTA: “Was this a case of bureaucratic bungling, or an intentional effort to use the U.S. intelligence community for a political dirty trick aimed at defeating Trump at the polls and, later, delegitimizing his election”
Dirty trick? Is this what we are calling sedition nowadays? Mr. Solomon is a very cautious journalist which I understand, but to call what transpired at the hands of government bureaucrats and the highest elected official in the land a dirty trick is a grave error. Attempting to unseat a duly elected President is sedition. It was a conspiracy set forth during the election and when it did not work the way they planned, it then turned into what only can be called sedition. If we are being set up to call this a dirty trick instead of what it is, Americans are going to be outraged. I don’t want to hear “for the good of the country” pass the lips of anyone. What is good for the country is proper and legal punishment for the crimes that have been committed regardless who is found guilty.

I´m not exhausted or ready to walk away from anything. The show is just getting started. There are many leftist traitors and conspirators running around free who should be wearing orange jump suits while on trial for treason, conspiracy, and many other offenses.
They´ll be calling for us to just Move On again. I don´t think so.

If I may add an 11th question: Was Fusion GPS accessing the NSA database prior to Admiral Rogers discovery of the illegal misuse of said database prior to the transition to "legal" spying via the dossier and FISA warrant?

If comedian/ventriloquist Jeff Dunham decides to make a politician puppet he should model it after fathead Nadler. Between his pyramid shaped skull, his dyed eyebrows, one of ‘em bouncing when he’s lying, his lipless, crooked line mouth, and his thin, greasy, badly combed hair, Nadler is a natural for it.

This is all that has to be exposed it answers who was behind this Russian collusion.....
9.) Did the CIA or Obama intelligence apparatus try to lure or pressure the FBI into opening a Trump collusion probe or acknowledge its existence before the election? Text messages between alleged FBI lovebirds Strzok and Page raised concerns about “pressure” from the White House, the “Agency BS game,” DOJ leaks and the need for an FBI “insurance policy.” And, as Strzok texted at one point in August 2016, quoting a colleague: “The White House is running this.”

Various sections of the United States Code were violated. These were/are felony offences. After AG Barr reviews the criminal referrals he just received from Nunes, he must revoke the passports of those referred for investigation. Restrict their ability to leave the country. Starting with Obie and Billary and their teams. Foreign actors likely involved. Include several among the msm. I could see two or three dozen people referred for investigation. Let´s start putting the puzzle together.

It is now obvious to everyone, so please let´s just stop pretending. The "Democrat Party" is not a political party - it is a Crime Syndicate. Literally, not figuratively. No one has been allowed, or has dared, say this because of the very real consequences to one´s career, one´s family, one´s personal security - but it is no longer a discreet little DC secret: the "Democrat Party" is not a political party - it is a Crime Syndicate.

If there was any collusion by Trump with Russia, after two years, it would have been found. There was no collusion!
When an innocent man protests the gross injustice of a two year Witch Hunt, it is not obstruction of justice.
There is plenty of evidence that this was an attempted coup d´état by Democrats and elitist Washington insiders.

Did you ever try to put together a jigsaw puzzle without a picture on the box? It takes alot longer and you need to do the border first, then major colors and finally detail as you get an idea of what the picture is! At the end, you use shapes and not color.
We are half way through this puzzle now, and we can clearly tell some important pieces are missing --- but I´m beginning to see the face of Obama peering out from behind the Clintons.
I´m guessing the final picture --- when all the pieces are accounted for and fit together --- we will find the Clintons blackmailed Obama over something REAL important and he used his staff to hide his fingerprints but clearly this whole hoax is connected to the very top.

The LEFT is now promoting the OBSTRUCTION nonsense- as if any President who knows he is innocent would not attempt to derail a HOAX of an investigation, so he could function and perform the tasks he was elected to do -When a person is falsely accused, that person has the right to attempt to defend him/herself in any legal manner available. That is why DEFENSE attorneys exists. The main point, RUSSSIAN COLLUSION, was a SCAM, a LIE, and a CON, which WAS ILLEGAL and seditious, perhaps treasonous. I cannot wait for the saboteurs are brought to justice, all dozens of them , including Justice Roberts who oversees the FISA Court( supposedly ) and the justices who allowed FALSE information to lead to spying on American citizens.

#7, the redacted portions of the FISA court investigation preclude us from (so far) knowing exactly WHICH ´contractors´ were "improperly" (actually, illegally) given access to the NSA databases, but we do know that contractors did have access and that 85% of their database queries were "improper", actually illegal.
Almost to a certainty, they were Fusion GPS and Nellie Ohr, and somebody else, IIRC, it was three contractors redacted.
Massive, criminal conspiracy against the President with buckets and buckets of fraud and abuse of power by dozens of powerful DoJ, FBI, CIA and Dept of State Obama evil minions.

If it was just a case of bungling, more intelligent officials would have put a stop to it early on.
What would make this bad situation worse is learning that our intelligence community is a bunch of bunglers! However, no matter how corrupt they may be, they would not be there if they were bunglers...

#14, perhaps Illary has the original long form birth certificate. After all, she’s the one who started the whole “birther” thing.

Here´s what happens when you make your top gub´mnt officials live in Springfield/Newington and then force them to commute to work in America´s worst traffic congrestion to downtown DC.
You get what you pay for.
Today´s DOJ/FBI/etc operation is a real mess. But the CIA is already in the suburbs and isn´t half as bad.
