Finally, someone gets it!

When you’re faced with a corrupt and untrustworthy press, you learn to manipulate them before they manipulate you. I’m sure one of the agenda topics at every Trump staff meeting is “OK, now what kind of BS story do we feed the media, so we can proceed to get our real work done?”. Leaks can be useful tools for distracting the silly fools who actually believe that when they are given inside information that just happens to be exactly what they want to hear, that it’s got any semblance to the actual truth.

Priebus or someone in his inner circle might be a problem. I'm wondering about another one who I won't name online.

Just a guess.....I have no information to back my opinion.

Exactly...Far too many people (in here also) underestimate Trump’s strategy...He has shown over and over that he knows exactly what he’s doing...

How many times has the Fake Stream Media and the democrats come out with what some say is damaging news about Trump only to have it thrown back at them later???

Trump sets them up for a slam and they don’t even realize it....

Sessions knew that there's a damn good chance his own calls and e-mails were intercepted, which means he now be a witness in a grand jury proceeding where Obama officials are the targets of the investigation.

The defendant's lawyers aren't even present in a federal grand jury proceeding, much less calling witnesses to give testimony to the grand jury.

Unless Jeff Sessions moonlights as an FBI electronics surveillance tech, he would have no personal knowledge of whether or not his phone was even tapped and could offer no relevant testimony on it.

He may recuse himself as a political decision, however.

As to whether Sessions should recuse himself because Obama is a political opponent of the other party, no one in the Obama administration's ever recused themselves when they went after political opponents like Bob McDonnell governor of Virginia or Dinesh D'Souza the opposition movie maker.

Who would be the leaker?


Maybe this is a false story designed to flush out a leaker?

According to Politico sources, during the 'robust discussion' in the Oval Office among his chief of staff Reince Priebus, senior adviser Jared Kushner, chief strategist Steve Bannon, communications director Mike Dubke, and press secretary Sean Spicer, there were 'fireworks'. His daughter Ivanka was also present.

Priebus, Kushner, Bannon, Spicer, Ivanka AND Dubke were in the room.

Dubke is the the brand new guy they hired (friend of Rove from Crossroads). Hmmm.

That crossed MY beady little mind, too. Recusal was maybe O.K. at first blush; but with the new revelations of Kenyan eavesdropping, etc., all bets could be declared OFF. And just let some ‘Rat bahstid mouth off about it!

“Sessions did not recuse himself from prosecuting the prior administration.

He only recused himself from investigating Russian influence with the Trump campaign.”

That’s what I was thinking. They may be connected, but two different investigations.

And if Sessions has to recuse himself on the Trump campaign investigation, he should recuse #2 man, an Obama official, on the Obama illegal use of power investigation.

I can’t see him ranting at his own, but I can see him (like myself many times) losing it against the marxists. I hope he realizes now that the world’s comrades are against him.

Omg you are so right! Those that remember what the establishment was have infiltrated Trumps admin while a large number of FR members cheered it on is appalling. How quickly most forget how Pubus directed party funds to establishment cock roaches undermining the tea party movement. To a point where tea party candidates got none. He has always been a party guy.

Now folks would have you believe that our president sprinkled magic fairy dust from his posterior and viola Pubus is cured.

Hogwash! I can point to hundreds of anti Pubus posts over the years trashing this little worm for what he is. We have a cheerleading section who encouraged his appointment and now Trump has a big problem on his hands. The leaks are real, they are getting out of control and I think FR members are slowly realizing Trump is not a king and therefore doesn’t have as much control as what the fantasies in their minds would have them believe. He is surrounded by jackels and I believe he is realizing that

It is mostly the so called conservatives who have been never-Trumpers from the day he announced, are the ones.

I am sitting back and enjoying the unfolding drama. The most exciting election ever in my life of 7 decades.

> “I assure you my education is sound and in order.”

In light of your statements and the quality and substance thereof, your self-testimony is not at all assuring.

> “I assure you my education is sound and in order.”

That is not evident in your previous statements.

> “I’m not a sheep and can think beyond 2 dimensional thought. Unlike some who blindly follow”

This mantra is likely the restraint you subject yourself to. You would be advised to reexamine its basis and consider growing out of it.

So... is the Oval Office bugged too?
Or is somebody on the White House staff running to the Daily Mail to report these tidbits?
IF this happened —big if— how would the Daily Mail know ?
