The Federalist Co-Founder Sean Davis called for accountability of U.S. officials involved in the Russian collusion hoax on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight” on Tuesday.
Despite the widespread knowledge of a false campaign against Trump among U.S. officials, Davis said many have yet to pay for their actions which could yield extensive consequences for the nation.
“If nobody is made to pay for this, if nobody goes to prison, it’s going to happen again,” Davis said. “And when it happens again, because these people are going to be completely emboldened by the lack of accountability, it will be far worse, even though that may be hard to imagine. Far worse than what they did in 2016, which itself was criminal.”

Davis discussed the recent release of declassified information indicating that the CIA director knew about “Russian knowledge of Hillary Clinton’s anti-Trump collusion smear operation” and that former President Barack Obama was briefed about it, but did nothing.
“It wasn’t just at the FBI. The CIA knew it, the CIA director knew it. The President of the United States was briefed on it in the Oval Office and the Russians knew it,” Davis said. “That’s important because as the FBI was pretending to look into whether Trump was colluding with the Russians, our own intelligence services knew that Russia was aware of Clinton’s plans and therefore able, and possibly likely, to start injecting disinformation of their own into her entire process, which is what actually happened.”
This lack of accountability, according to both Carlson and Davis is “undermining democracy” in the U.S. and should raise significant concerns for the future.
“This wasn’t just some sort of silly game that had no real consequences or implications. These people used this to cast doubt on our election. They talk about the integrity of our democracy. They were the ones crapping all over it,” Davis said. “After Trump was inaugurated, they went and hijacked the presidency, they tried to cripple it. They put in this completely bogus special counsel based on false pretenses to cripple the administration heading right into the 2018 elections.”
“You want to live in a place where the CIA operates indefinitely from the president against the favored party’s political enemies? I can’t imagine anything more third-world,” Carlson added.
Ping me as soon as the swamp cuffs one of their own .....
I know where they can start and work their way down.
“This wasn’t just some sort of silly game that had no real consequences or implications...
And “If nobody goes to prison...”, if one was a pessimist, could read “WHEN nobody goes to prison” save some low level nobody.
But I will be an optimist. And hope DOJ does the right thing,.
Stop laughing at me :)
I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if the FBI, CIA etc., are working closely with the Media/Dem Party in an attempt to oust Trump in 2020.
Nobody is going to prison. And it will happen again. Good night. Tip your waitress.
If no one goes to jail for treasonous acts against the president we will have zero law and order. We’ll have chaos in the streets...oh. Hmm
We’ll have no valid election
Russia Hoax is a treason event. People need to hang.
One of the greatest mysteries of my life is how Hillary, Comey, Brennan, Lerner, Clapper, and a host of others, are not in jail. How does this happen.
I am very saddened to say that this once great country is utterly corrupt. For four plus years people with the ability to apply justice have simply decided not to. That is corruption of the highest order.
WE can dirty Biden up because he knew everything. Start banging the drum because it will be true eventually.
Barr and Durham will get right on this.
TRUE.
“Ping me as soon as the swamp cuffs one of their own .....”

Well, Trump’s given them the authority to declassify docs and info that will put themselves and their buddies behind bars, so I expect they’ll get right on that any day now!
If Guiliani had been FBI director Biden, Obama, Clapper, Brennan, Comey, etc would already be in jail
Not only that, but the people who helped commit the hoax then went on to ‘investigate’ Trump for 2 years for a crime they knew did not happen... And refused to investigate the perpetrator of the real crime- who they all personally knew.
This is 100% correct. The media isn’t going to shame the Democrats into leaving. That only works one way. Law enforcement will have to prosecute people with the media contesting it the entire way. This idea of a “Watergate” going the other way is never going to happen. Is William Barr the man to withstand the slings and arrows in order to bring the hoaxers to justice? I’m not very confident about that.
When?
If you leave the organizational structures and power in powers in place - it will happen again.
And it will happen again to a republican administration. Personally I think that crime and punishment has become an outdated concept in America.
Ping me when it happens
