This is a big deal, folks. Matt Gaetz, Republican congressman from Florida, said the following in an appearance on Fox Newss Watters World with Jesse Watters Saturday night:
Gatez: Theyre not off the hook. Another Little nugget the IG is looking at is the corruption between the FBI and the media. We will be seeing it before we see the IG Report on how this fraudulent investigation got started.

That’s going to run this country out of popcorn.
Better go lay in a supply......
Maybe now that they have all been fired and replaced things can move forward... Nah I'm sure all the whiners are right nothing is happening. LOL
We all hope, we all pray and we all day dream of the day these criminals whose salaries we provided while they corrupted the highest echelons of our government from the Oval Office through the very offices that were supposed to be preventing the very action they undertook are brought to justice but I have never believed justice would be served on these perps beginning with Jeff “Pogo’ Sessions recusal.
Should have been an investigation and hearings many years ago, and most definitely during the Obama regime, and during Clintons campaign, namely Donna Brazile and CNN. If this were to happen, we would find rampant corruption, bribery, blackmail, and payoffs between the democrats and media.
Same here. This bit of "news" reeks of more stale clickbait.
Ah, heck.
Thought Hillary’s Federal Bureau of Instigation hired minorities into “leadership” positions. These perpetual pertraitors are all white.
But.
Holder, Lynch, Yates, Rice still need to be added to the Twenty Most Wanted posters.
No question.
No one will go to jail—its a mediocracy—the Leftist Commie Media really runs the Democratic Party.
False representation of evidence to get a FASA warrent was criminal behavior to justify getting dirt on the Trump Campaign. The Watergate break-in was criminal behavior to get dirt on the Democrat Party. It looks like we have Watergate II!!
Obama, what do you know and when did you know it?

I think the linchpin was Obama. I think the Clinton Foundation was a money stream to finance DemonCRAP efforts much like the Tides Foundation. Soros has used the Tides Foundation to funnel money to more than two-dozen organizations. With Hilary elected, the Clinton Foundation would have lined Obama’s pockets as well as the Clintons. It would have become a duplicate of Soro’s far Left efforts.
When Hillary hit the skids, the Clinton Foundation went down too. The Collusiongate hoax was an effort to remove Trump from office and ultimately short-circuit the Constitutional mandate that would give VP Pence the Presidency. They wanted to remove Trump and give it directly to Hillary. Civil War II would be going on right now.
And money was given to media to say and write what they were told to.
According to Sara Carter, DC vermin are rating out each other. I wonder if FBI will rat out MSM or the MSM rats out FBI agents. Comments anyone?
Order more popcorn.
Thanks.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
Praying it is so.
According to Sara Carter, DC vermin are rating out each other.
My money is on Page. Hell hath no fury and all that.

“We keep hearing a few bad apples at the top of FBI”
That’s Hannity’s constant spiel — that the FBI rank-and-file are honorable people. And he proudly wears his little FBI lapel pin. Unless I learn that some of the rank-and-file are helping Trump, I say they’re all as bad as Comey.
“He is talking about the bribery of government officials by media.”
I understand the MSM was giving trips, tickets, etc., to the FBI, CIA and similar.
"People of the same trade, according to Adam Smith, "seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices. And journalists meet together, virtually, over the AP wire and all other wire services. And the meeting goes on continually, decade after decade, since before the Civil War in the case of the AP.A conspiracy against the public, therefore, became inevitable a long time ago. And what else would journalists who were conspiring against the public do but to propagandize in favor of their own self-interest? They propagandize in favor of their own self-proclaimed objectivity, even knowing that their focus is on bad news. Knowing, that is, that journalism is negative. And only a cynic would claim that negativity is objectivity.
Since journalism is cynical about society, it is correspondingly naive about the institution - government - which exists to discipline evil in society. Journalists following their own incentives, therefore, tend to produce socialist propaganda.
It follows that journalists must be disciplined by laws of libel and antitrust. The presumptive barrier to libel suits by Trump is the unanimous 1964 New York Times v. Sullivan SCOTUS decision. Which says that public figures cant sue unless they first prove actual malice on the part of the defendant. SCOTUS was enthusiastic in its defense of freedom of the press. But contrary to popular opinion, the First Amendment did not institute freedom of the press. Freedom of the press - limited by libel and pornography prohibitions already existed before the Constitution was written. And laws against libel and pornography were not controversial when the First Amendment was written - and if 1A had been written to create absolute freedom of the press then the First Amendment would have been controversial. But it was not - because 1A preserves the [existing, limited] freedom . . . of the press. Not freedom of the press, but "the freedom of the press. So said Justice Scalia.
The Sullivan decision overreached in protecting freedom of the press at the expense of the right, existing and recognized at the founding and thus covered by the Tenth Amendment, of any person (in or out of government) to sue for libel. Also, Sullivan did not consider that journalism was a monopolistic "conspiracy against the public precisely to propagandize in favor of big government, and thus specifically against conservatives. Mr. Sullivan was not a Republican, but as a southern Democrat of that era he would be considered a (dis)honorable Republican by the press and by Democrats. See "Duke, David. The point is that the Sullivan decision has clear political import because Democrats dont get libeled. And therefore conservatives and Republicans are actually the target of Sullivan's strictures.
A freakin' ADIDAS exec got 9 months for offering favors to college b-ball players. BOTH journalists AND FBI officials on the take should get at least a year in jail. I would settle for soyboy journalists making deals to rat out every agent involved.
