... life itself is quite a challenge.

The FBI in late December reviewed intercepts of communications between the Russian ambassador to the United States and retired Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn — national security adviser to then-President-elect Trump — but has not found any evidence of wrongdoing or illicit ties to the Russian government, U.S. officials said.
The calls were picked up as part of routine electronic surveillance of Russian officials and agents in the United States, which is one of the FBI’s responsibilities, according to the U.S. officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss counterintelligence operations.
Nonetheless, the fact that communications by a senior member of Trump’s national security team have been under scrutiny points up the challenge facing the intelligence community as it continues its wide-ranging probe of Russian government influence in the U.S. election and whether there was any improper back-channel contacts between Moscow and Trump associates and acquaintances.

Look how far things have come, look at the enormity of what they’re saying.
What would the Founders say...?
But look at the way people ALREADY are accepting it.
Think I’ll call for a large pepperoni...
BUT LET ME CHECK WITH THE NSA *FIRST*...!
This is just amazing.
... life itself is quite a challenge.
Right after 9-11, there was this weird thing people were saying. A bunch of times:
“Don’t change ANYTHING about the way you live, cuz if you do...? THE TERRORISTS WIN..!”
At first it was reasonable, but soon people applied it to all kinds of silly things:
“Loud, Hawaiian shirt, or sedate one, today, honey..?”
“Loud one!!! If you change anything about the way you live, the terrorists win..!”
And people gradually stopped thinking about it.
YET LOOK HOW MUCH OUR LIVES HAVE CHANGED.
Nice going FBI. Nothing illicit, but we had to expose our monitoring capability of the Russian Ambassador to tell you that.
So, the FBI leaks the info to News Organizations.
Another leaker just compromised. Intelligence gathering sources and methods
These people need to be found charged and arrested
“Nonetheless...” this is a narrative we worked hard to develop, really hard from practically nothing, and we think it’s a great narrative- so there!
Clinton fishing expedition.
This article is false news because CNN exposed Flynn’s violation of the Hatch Act. (stifling belly laughter)
Yep.
Anonymous “US Officials” cited in the Washington Post is not how Trump intends to be informed of the workings of government. Especially on national security matters.
He’s gonna find a leaker and put him in prison for the rest of his life, to set an example.
And yet Saint Hillary has done nothing wrong.
OMG these folks are fools.
If any of U.S. Freepers had admitted to the crimes Clinton did in her eMails, we’d already be up the river.
Yo FBI!
Check emails between Hitlery and Kenyan during Benghazi attacks.
Who told Hitlery to lie about the video?????
Would that be Kenyan worrying about his election?
Treason???
These Feds best get a life.
I want them all to go down, and that includes Bill.
I still say the Clinton’s should make a deal for a prison family discount.
Bill
Hillary
Chelsea
The Foundation should take them all down...
Misappropriation of funds...
So they called Trump national security advisor after Trump became president elect? That’s a complete non story.
I hate our lying media so much. If Trump passed a law requiring them to wear kick me signs, I’d spend my entire day kicking them in the butt every 5 feet.
I want the FIB reviewed for massive corruption.I want comey in JAIL for not hammering Hillary because SHE IS NOT ABOVE THE DANMNED LAW!! I want him indicted and her and Bill indicted ASAP!!And that damned bribe taking Loretta lynch right with them to the pokey for LIFE!!
Don’t forget Lois Lerner.
She didn’t get a pardon either.
