Tom Cotton confirms that the communications between Flynn and Russian ambassador were wiretapped, admits he knows which agency was in charge of the tap and who ordered it.
Cotton also revealed that the DOJ has been leaking classified information received from the FBI to former Obama Administration employees and that they know which former Obama administration employees leaked said info to the press.

“Reading between the lines, sounds like
a) Trump completely cleared of anything.”
That was clear when the Clapper report was released. It had nothing on Trump and was a collection of all the intelligence available, put together by an Obama guy with unlimited clearance.
The leftwing media of course ignored it. They keep calling for an investigation, but the investigation was already done and Clapper released his report.
“I will withhold my enthusiasm until I see federal employees wearing orange jumpsuits.”
Ditto! The fact that this is on O’Reilly means absolutely nothing. When the front pages of the NYT and WaPo carry a story about the imminent arrest of former Obama Cabinet members, I will believe that something is indeed going to come of it. Until then....

To borrow a Watergate meme...
Drip... drip... drip..
Or exercise equipment.
I can suggest some attractive getaways’s to Obama-era fleeing felons.
How about any North African moslem country ?>>>>>>>>>>>>
See below the “nations” with no extradition treaty with the USA.
Suppose you were NSA whistle-blower Edward Snowden, or fictional international spy Jason Bourne, and the most powerful intelligence agencies on the planet were hunting you.
Where would you go?
This is a farfetched scenario for most of us. That’s why it’s only a thought experiment.
On the other hand, for folks like the founder of Liberty Dollar (a gold/silver-backed private currency), whom the U.S. government has labeled a “domestic terrorist,” it might not be implausible.
Regardless of how likely the scenario, if you do need to escape, a crucial factor in deciding where to go is whether or not the country has an extradition treaty with the U.S.
An extradition treaty is the legal mechanism countries use to pull alleged criminals out of other countries. The terms and conditions vary. Some countries, like France and Brazil, won’t extradite their own citizens, no matter the circumstance.
Generally speaking, for an extradition to succeed, the alleged criminal act can’t be political in nature and must be a crime in both jurisdictions, and the suspect cannot be in danger of receiving the death penalty or torture if transferred.
Absent a formal treaty, extraditing a person is much more difficult, but it’s certainly not impossible.

The following countries have been known to refuse U.S. extradition requests, despite having treaties: Bolivia, Ecuador, Iceland, Nicaragua, Switzerland, Venezuela and Zimbabwe.
Escaping to a non-extradition-treaty country does not mean you are home free. It simply puts you at the mercy of your new hosts. You could become a pawn in a larger game and might be traded away for concessions. The political sands are always shifting, and tomorrow’s government may be more accommodating to the U.S.
The CIA could also kidnap you and bring you back to the U.S. without your host government’s consent. Or you might fall within sight of an armed drone. No matter where you go, there is no shortage of ways the U.S. government can hurt you.
While a drone strike is unlikely (for now), the U.S. government would almost certainly cancel your U.S. passport and seize your U.S. bank accounts.
Even so, you can insulate yourself from these tactics by obtaining a second passport.
Second passports are not just for the Edward Snowdens and Jason Bournes of the world. They are completely legal and prudent for anyone who wants freedom from the whims of any one particular government—especially a government that is desperate, bankrupt and totally out of control. Think of it as your “freedom insurance.”

I am too.
Despite BOR’s whiny “the folks have a right to know,” Cotton refused to discuss SCI.
Oreilly is desperate to cling to ratings.

Might be too nice for them. Further south, I think, like Somalia, another muslim country but with worse mosquitos and really nothing to steal. Wikipedia:

Did Cotton say where the Flynn/Russian call took place?
Is Obama going to make Loretta Lynch the fall guy. Or Brennan?
I say Obama himself needs to be held to account.
I am from Missouri. I’ll believe it when I see it. Until names are divulged and people arrested, I will hold my powder. This is not a game that we are playing here, let us see some action, some concrete results.
she won’t give Obama up or Bill Clinton will have her whacked.
You need to “declassify” that information, Senator.
To borrow another one:
I want the Obamatrons to be left " twisting slowly in the wind".
SCI?
This SCI?
SCI: Sensitive Compartmented Information (US government classified information)
Tom Cotton is a Republican and with WikiLeaks today I sense even more the real fight is patriots-people versus globalists, not Democrats versus Republicans.
When you read between the lines of what Cotton told O’Reilly about who leaked the info. to the press or other unathorized persons, the answer comes up:
Loretta Lynch
you got it....it jumped right out at me. Will she protect jug ears...heh heh.
