Former Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper let slip on CNN last week who was behind the ongoing investigations into Donald Trump and his associates. In an attempt to defend his former boss from accusations he did nothing in response to Russia's election meddling, Clapper bragged that Obama was behind the "whole sequence of events which are still unfolding today." This would seem to include spying on the Trump campaign.
Clapper told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Thursday:
One point I'd like to make, Anderson, that I don't think has come up very much before, and I'm alluding now to the President's criticism of President Obama for all that he did or didn't do before he left office with respect to the Russian meddling. ...
If it weren't for President Obama, we might not have done the intelligence community assessment that we did that set off a whole sequence of events which are still unfolding today, notably, special counsel Mueller's investigation. President Obama is responsible for that, and it was he who tasked us to do that intelligence community assess in the first place. I think that's an important point when it comes to critiquing President Obama.

He says that as if it is a positive thing they did to make up this story.
Is it too late to prosecute Obama for attempting a coup?
This whole thing is a blame-shifting cover-up to save Obama and Clinton’s big a$$.
Clapper asserting the “I was only following orders” defense.
Not going to work.
……….not according to my sometimes dubious recall...……...which is...…...Namely....”there is no statute of limitations on Treason.
Our forefathers considered Treason the worst of all crimes.
The bag is out of the Cat now!!
Everyday it appears that select Obama holdover leaders were involved in a coup. That would be treason
I am sure the Lame Stream Media will be all over this.
“Our forefathers considered Treason the worst of all crimes.”
It still is.
“Clapper asserting the “I was only following orders” defense.
Not going to work.”
As I recall from the newsreels, that’s what those guys hanging around Nuremburg said.
All roads lead to the man who calls himself Barack Hussein Obama II...
Clapper is dead man walking.
“Clapper asserting the “I was only following orders” defense.
Not going to work.”
As long as he fingers Obama I’m cool with that.
From the beginning, obama was behind it all. He never wanted to give up that power.. he is adicted to power.. and he was the highest for 8 years. He planned on it lasting... he still is trying to achieve it.
All this hate is also from the 8 years of obama. He was condescending when he talked and wherever he was. He was so stuck on himself, he thought everyone loved him like he did! It turned off so many out in the country. The liberals loved him .. they were like him... but the ordinary middle land, did not like him at all. We all knew he was unlawful and was throwing our Constitution to the wind.. but the depth of it, when the pit was opened.. was breathtakng!
I know a man who never voted in his life... he thought it didn’t matter whether he did or not. He hated obama.. he was angry for a long time. He was not fit to be driving, for he had no patience for bad drivers.. he wanted things to change.. he wanted to regain the hope obama took. Along came Trump and this man was so glad to see someone who would fight against all that had been going on... he voted! For Trump to undo all of obama’s legacy, is a good thing.. but obama is not finished!
The person who is guilty of treason and all they are charging on the left.. it’s obama.. and hillary. If the few who are fighting, don’t give up.. we may see them paying a price... the whole buch of them!
Befehl ist Befehl.
I love his suggestion that doing an intelligence assessment (presumably of election interference) required Obama suggesting it. As if the IC would be too benighted to think of it by themselves. What Obama unleashed was a political attack equipped at birth with sheep’s clothing.
Clapper never fails to make a negative impression.
Time for the House Judiciary Committee to re-subpoena
Clapper. Play the CNN video and get him to say the same thing under oath.
