SPYGATE:The 21st Century’s Watergate and Collusion Against Trump, The Biggest Political Scandal
IWB ^ | Bob Shanahan

Posted on 05/25/2018 1:02:21 PM PDT by davikkm

Spygate is the biggest political scandal in political history. The embedding of an FBI spy in the Trump campaign and the Obama administration’s illegal wiretapping and unmasking of targets in the Trump camp reveal dangerous and unprecedented acts of collusion against the most transformational president in our recent history.

The liberal mainstream media are pushing against this reality of course but the evidence is incontrovertible and the real Obama is being shown for the blatant criminal he truly is. “Spygate,” the false allegation that the FBI had a spy in the Trump campaign, explained, reads Vox’s typically incurious and misleading headline. Other headlines in a similar vein are blasting across the media’s propaganda waves as they attempt to tamp down this bombshell.

On Wednesday, President Trump asserted that Spygate will turn out to be “one of the biggest political scandals in history!” The 45th president of the United States is correct in this assessment. FBI source and former Cambridge professor Stefan Halper had contact with at least three advisers during the Trump campaign to create a link between the Russians and Donald Trump.

It’s a political scandal without parallel in the history of the Republic.

The only historical parallel I can think of is the Cataline Conspiracy, in which an insane brute attempted to utilise the powers of the state to destroy his enemies in the Roman Republic,

It does appear to be the worst scandal in U.S. history.

It doesn’t matter. The media and their running dogs in academia and government will successfully block any real investigation.

Instead they will make up a phony one against their enemies, US!

Damn it, when are people going to understand that Watergate was just the same thing they tried to do to DJT? The only difference is they got away with it because there was no Internet.

It’s not a scandal until somebody goes to jail, which currently seems unlikely under Session’s watch (i.e., where the swamp seems to be running the show)

Yes it is THE worst scandal. I’m pretty tired of the phrases “could be the worst...maybe the worst...one of worst”. The due date for qualifying its seriousness is long past. And be sure of this: Woodward and Bernstein will do their level worst to make sure Watergate remains the worst in everyone’s head.

Comey and the rest of these destroyers of liberty in favor of Progressivism's ideology should know that when they embarked on that path of totalitarian-like "control" over their fellow citizens, they could not deceive their way back into that company of patriots and freedom loving individuals without being discovered, exposed and rejected. Too many have died defending freedom for the current generation of citizens to allow the events of the past few years to stand in the annals of the history of this great nation!

"Nothing is so mistaken as the supposition, that a person is to extricate himself from a difficulty, by intrigue, by chicanery, by dissimulation, by trimming, by an untruth, by an injustice. This increases the difficulties ten fold; and those who pursue these methods, get themselves so involved at length, that they can turn no way but their infamy becomes more exposed. It is of great importance to set a resolution, not to be shaken, never to tell an untruth. There is no vice so mean, so pitiful, so contemptible; and he who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world’s believing him. This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time depraves all its good dispositions." - See "Letter to Peter Carr, August 19, 1785," in Thomas Jefferson: Writings (New York: The Library of America, 1984), pp. 814-815.

". . . he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world's believing him." - Jefferson

A few days ago, Obama was in the news bragging that he didn’t have scandals during his administration.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/05/24/didnt-have-scandals-obama-seemingly-jokes-in-tech-conference-talk.html

Perhaps he’s pointing out that his biggest scandals did not surface until he left office? Because he had plenty of scandals but the Deep State News didn’t report him and our “representatives” didn’t represent us and he owned the FBI/CIA...

Let’s have it out. If the Deep State wins, the remains of our republic are done for.

I want scalps. Start with Obama’s. If the price to reestablish the rule of law is burning cities, so be it.

If the Deep State™ can get away with this one, then there are no limits.I would say if this gets brushed under the table then we are talking secession or submission.

As a patriot how do you live with that? How can I just let that go? It will eat on me for the rest of my life.

Obama has already gotten away with murder, literally.

Why will this be different?

Spygate is the tip of the treason iceberg.

The Kenyanesian Usurpation was entirely illegal and unconstitutional and bipartisan.

“Well, Doctor, what have we got—a Republic or a Monarchy?”

“A Republic, if you can keep it.”

_Benjamin Franklin

When 50% of the population WANTS to believe Trump is evil and won the election by colluding with Russia AND 90% of the Media they consume also BELIEVES and advances that propaganda, well, this is were our Republic will be tested.

The Clinton administration was a house of cards. The Obama administration was built on a foundation of straw.

They still did not worry because those houses were protected by a 100 foot high, 20 ft. thick, solid steel wall. Beyond that was 100 feet wide, and 100 feet deep moat.

The wall and moat were the media, academia, courts, Democratic politicians along with liberal Republicans, and a corrupt church creating filthy morals. Of those the most powerful is the media which is around 97% liberal and maybe 90% corrupt.

It is possible but very difficult to breach those obstacles. I doubt they ever will be.

"Tested," yes, but we must remember, as did America's Founders in their Declaration of Independence, that unbeknownst to those who will not believe, there remains the "Supreme Judge of the world," who is "Nature's God" and the Source of "the laws of nature," as well an ongoing "Divine Providence," overseeing that place of light and liberty for individuals and their Creator-endowed rights!
