Rush had it right. You had just one Putin group who just wanted to cause as much discord and trouble as they could. They succeeded spectacularly.
////////////////////////////

The Russia interfered in our election meme is a diversion. Wikileaks published Podesta and DNC emails with the help of an inside the DNC/Hillary campaign source (likely Seth Rich). Assange is not an arm of the Russian government but an independent disseminator of information. The democrats sunk themselves with no help from the Russian government conspiring with the Trump/republican campaign. The deep state communist revolutionaries in the federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies conspired to elect Hillary, defeat Trump and when elected, organized a coup to cover their illegal sedition and to get Trump removed from office. IMHO

As if we never interfered in Russian elections.... This was Bill Clinton's work

The resentment over the American influence on Yeltsin, was one of the key factors in the rise of Vladimir Putin.

And the Russians didn’t have to lift a finger. Isn’t that success? Maximum damage with minimum effort. If they had any collaborators it was in the Obama administration and the Clinton campaign, helping them to create this fake meme.

The US interferes in everyone’s elections. Everyone interferes in the US’ elections. Suddenly, the leftards are smacking their checks and opening their mouths wide, as if this is the first time they ever noticed.

Obama’s Campaign Paid $972,000 to Law Firm that Secretly Paid Fusion GPS in 2016


If anybody needs a no knock FBI raid it is Perkins Coie. Of course they have had years to destroy evidence of their numerous crimes.

Are these guys really trying to start a civil war? Do they think that Trump's supporters will stand idly by while they railroad Trump out of office?

Yes, Papadopoulos was set up by the London FBI legate to go to Rome to meet Mifsud, who was falsely purported to be a Russian intel asset. Mifsud ran the very Center in London for which Papadopoulos already had been working and was about to leave, so what was the necessity go to Rome to meet him? For the added layer of foreign misdirection and greater plausibility of the Russian-connectedness of the claim?

We now know Mifsud's intel founding connections were Western, not Russian. Mifsud's planting the idea that the Russians supposedly had Hillary email dirt was just done (with full FBI knowledge, as it came via the FBI legate) to hear it repeated to-then-by Alex Downer, the Aussie's Intel chief, giving it 5Eyes credibility. How convenient to use a 5Eeyes loophole to spy and report on Papadopoulos, the American, without a FISA warrant!

Of course, the FBI had this info (from both Downer and Papadopoulos) since March of 2016 yet didn't do anything with it until the day after Nellie Ohr met with Christopher Steele in July, with Strzok and McCabe pretending it was Papadopoulos' Hillary-dirt info from Papadopoulos that kicked off the counterintel op. The whole set-up was an FBI echo-chamber, just like feeding the Yahoo-Isikoff interview of Steele to be represented as media corroboration of the Steele dossier for the FISA warrant.

Starting the FBI investigation as a counter-intel op was convenient because of the perception (as by LPage) that it was common for such an operation to be begun on almost no information at all, which is belied by all the legal protections for FISA and against spying on political campaigns. They were just trying to excuse themselves from having to produce Woods procedures information showing probable cause of an actual crime.

And let's not even start on how Carter Page was a previous informant, sent to Russia by the FBI. To pretend he at that stage represents Russian interests as if he's a Russian informant sent to spy on the Trump campaign is a position without any credibility.

Halper can only be considered a decades-long US Deep State (and City of London) asset that Obama Rockefeller would send to Trump to spy on the Trump campaign. The same holds for Sam Clovis who offered the Papadopoulos his Trump campaign advisor job. Obama admitted sending such operatives, ostensibly to protect the Trump Campaign and American interests, but inasmuch as it would have been his, the FBI and DOJ's responsibility to inform Trump and the campaign that that was being done out of concern to protect against inappropriate Russian influence, Obama's actions are outed as lies, certainly doubly so as they're diametrically opposite to his Lynch, Yates, Comey meeting claimedly (per Rice) charging them "to do everything by the book." (Thus we can all see how important Rice's CYA memo to herself was in the hour before PDJT's inauguration.)

The Steele dossier was almost certainly a concoction by several authors on Hillary's payroll. The give away is that it is unverifable, meaning that it is fiction.

Intelligence agencies do not knowingly collect and analyze unverifiable information. The Russians would not have assembled unverified information on Trump as a possible intelligence target. They would have verified and incorporated proof into their internal reports.

80,000 deleted emails were recovered and suppressed by the FBI but he still talks about “8 minutes of erased tapes”.

If Woodward just found “out about this recently”, he is either blind and deaf, or dumber than a box of rocks. I wouldn’t rule out both.

It is evident when you review the “ads” they purchased on fakebook pushing BLM and other leftist agitators.

I never even look at fakebook. I started hating it many years ago. Hope my account no longer exists. But I’ll take your word for it.

I have such faith Barr is going to have a “come to Jesus” meeting with a lot of people. I pray I’m not wrong but we have all had our hopes up so many times. Somebody has to get our country back to the rule of law. I believe in Barr.

The people responsible for knowingly false statements to the FISA court should not be let off the hook. Press it relentlessly and see where the trail leads.

Lisa Page said that the POTUS wanted to be kept informed in one of her text messages.

This ALL obviously leads to Hussein Obama. The Muslim Moron thought he was smart enough to get Trump but he is one day going to have his A$$ handed to him. The only question is Hussein Obama worried yet? or is the fool still thinking that clowns like Schiff and Pelosi are going to be able to keep him hidden?
