At Mar-a-Lago this weekend President Donald Trump was filled “with fury” says The Washington Post, “mad — steaming, raging, mad.”
Early Saturday the fuming president exploded with this tweet: “Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my ‘wires tapped’ in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!”
The president has reason to be enraged. For what is afoot is a loose but broad conspiracy to break and bring him down, abort his populist agenda, and overturn the results of the 2016 election.
At its heart is the “deep state” — agents of the intel community, their media collaborators, and their amen corner in a Democratic party whose control of our permanent government is all but total.
At the heart of the case against Trump is what appears to be a Big Lie.
It is that Vladimir Putin and Russian intelligence hacked the DNC and John Podesta’s email account, then colluded with Trump’s friends or associates to systematically sabotage Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Therefore, Trump stole the election and is an illegitimate president. In this city, Trump is looked upon as a border-jumper, an illegal alien.
Yet let us consider the constituent components of the charge.
For months, we have heard that U.S. intel agencies agree that the Russians hacked the DNC and Clinton campaign, and gave the fruits of their cybertheft to WikiLeaks, because Putin wanted Trump to win.
For months, this storyline has been investigated by the FBI and the intelligence committees of both houses of Congress.
Yet where is the body of evidence that the Russians did this?
More critically, where is the evidence Trump’s people played an active role in the operation?

If he was, it was for effect. And act as part of a strategy to throw his opponents off their game by misleading them.
Trump is objective driven. He doesn't let emotion get in the way of the goal.
You don't get to be a billionaire by letting your emotions get between you and your objective.
“Steaming, raging, mad”
They overdid it. I don’t think Trump gets “Steaming, raging, mad”. I call BS.
US intel agencies blamed Russia for doing what they were themselves doing. Except they were doing it to Trump and the Trump campaign.
Classic misdirection. Most people fell for it and the ones who didn’t fall for it, still didn’t fully get what the game really was.
Exactly right.
Trump is playing 3-D chess. You don’t get angry...you just plan your next move.
AOL commie news is running a hack piece saying Trump’s chances of impeachment are much better because of his charges of wiretapping against Obama. I won’t justify it with a link.
The Republicans let Schumer call for a special prosecutor and promise to stonewall appointments. Something needs to be done here.
What does ZeroHedge have to do with this?
Thanks.
Impeach for what?
Pat Buchanan bump for later....
President Trump needs to Drain The Swamp before the creatures therein eat him. The Uniparty will not go away quietly.
“Something needs to be done here”.
For sure. It’s all beyond maddening and frustrating.
We must ruthlessly beat them and give them no quarter at all. We must fight “smart”. To hell with “can’t we get along”.
I think this summer things are going hot in more ways than one.
The President knows we have his back and we must not falter.
Why is Comey still director of the FBI?
Fire every person in DC that was put there by Obola. The ones that can’t be fired because of union rules can be rubber roomed - report to work in a plain room with no computer, no cell access, and no landline phones. Bring a stack of magazines, chumps.
