‘There’s going to be hell to pay and sadly, for many of our FRiends here, a lifetime of egg on the face.’

Please elaborate. What exactly do you expect to happen when Horowitz finally releases his report? The more specific you can be, the better.

Sessions is the Plug in the Drain of the Swamp.

Oh, but it is 4.5D Chess...

That’s a good word for it. I struggled at the time to figure out what Sessions was up to. For a few months any suggestion that Cruz *didn’t* singlehandedly stop amnesty elicited indescribable wrath from Cruz supporters. Eventually Sessions corrected the record but Cruz’ supporters clung to the myth. Very unsettling to say the least.

Trying to comprehend Sesssions is impossible.

The main puzzle is why Trump has HIMSELF has appointed SO MANY slimebags who work so clearly and directly against Trump and his followers’ interests.

My personal opinion is that Trump simply had no idea of the size and power of the Swamp and/or Deep State. To Trump’s credit he did speak early on of canning Sessions but the Senate GOP—including the so-called conservatives—promised to rain down fire and brimstone on Trump’s head if he followed through. With zero allies in the Senate, Trump is in a difficult position.

In May, the DOJ IG Report will issue Pt. 2. It’s thought this will specify the actions of senior DOJ and FBI officials handling of the Hillary Clinton email server.

Earlier this evening, Sara A. Carter published a report Andy McCabe ordered in official communications for FBI agents to “stand down” on the investigation.

One should expect it doesn’t begin or end with McCabe.

We also learned today that tens of thousands of emails will be handed over on internal text messages.

Again, it will lead to further illumination on a massive case of illegality up the ladder involving numerous parties.

In addition, I expect that other lines of investigation announced earlier by AG Sessions will lead to prosecution.

The names involved will cover senior levels of the FBI, DOJ and Obama White House.

There’s far more to come.

I’m not going to have egg on my face if there are more revelations. We already know enough to lock up half of DC. Revelations about Democrats get us nowhere; under Sessions’ DOJ they get a pass.

“Revelations about Democrats get us nowhere; under Sessions’ DOJ they get a pass.”

Yeah, I disagree. Obviously.

Btw, I forgot to thank you for the time you put into your prior post. It was appreciated.

Our problem is not a lack of information. It’s a lack of indictments. Take the case of Deep State Trump-hater James Clapper. He committed flagrant perjury on camera. It was all right there, low hanging fruit just begging for consequences.

But of course Sessions gave Clapper a free pass. Unlike Flynn, Clapper has never supported Trump so perjury for him is not a crime.

“Our problem is not a lack of information. It’s a lack of indictments. Take the case of Deep State Trump-hater James Clapper.”

None of these intel heads are out of the woods. Clapper may skate in the end but only because John “I love Gus Hall” Brennan is in so deep.

But they are all in a world of trouble. You can name the names all day and not run out of criminal seditionists/traitors.

No complex prosecution is put together overnight and this one will be the biggest political scandal in US history and years to unwind. The Rats will suffer badly in this, the summer of their seditious contempt.

Keep the faith. America is fighting back.

Clapper would not have been a complex prosecution. There was no reason in the world not to indict him except that he is Deep State. Sessions’ DOJ investigates Trump and his associates to within an inch of their lives but gives the Deep State a pass.

No, I don’t want to hear about the fairytale prosecutions that people imagine will happen in some distant future. I see plenty of prosecutions right now—every one of them aimed at destroying Trump.

“There was no reason in the world not to indict him except that he is Deep State. Sessions’ DOJ investigates Trump and his associates to within an inch of their lives but gives the Deep State a pass.”

Letting Clapper escape with a slap on the wrist is not justice. At a minimum flip him for justice on far bigger matters. That’s what’s happening right now in the FBI and DOJ senior circles.

There is no pass coming. There’s big trouble brewing right up the ladder as well it should.

Confirmation from a former FBI guy. I’ve pegged this for months, now it’s out there on the vine. It’s growing. Neither Rome nor very complex prosecutions are built in a day. The karmic boomerang begins:

Flynn losing his house was no slap on the wrist. For a far worse offense Clapper went Scott free. There is no evidence that any future charges are in store for him—zero. And anyway, being indicted for perjury does not indemnify a person against additional charges. It would simply have sent the message that Sessions’ just-us DOJ is not a two-tiered system in which Trump-supporters are ruined and Deep Staters skate.

“That’s what’s happening right now in the FBI and DOJ senior circles.”

Well, that’s what you imagine is happening at least. We’ve heard this song and dance for a long time, but so far, it’s resulted in only a single referral for prosecution (not even one actual prosecution yet), and even that referral was for pretty small potatoes stuff that probably won’t even result in jail time.

“Confirmation from a former FBI guy.”

Meh, unverifiable stories from “anonymous sources”, published on a website that publishes all sorts of tinfoil hat stuff with no attribution.

What is SES?

Not my imagination. There’s a reason why Congress saw withdrawn requests to have testimony from Lisa Page, Peter Strzok and Bill Priestap.

If you can’t see it, I’m not going to insist on explaining it. Those facts have been and are hanging out there for anyone who wishes to put two and two together.

Of course, it must all be a coincidence why these people remain on the FBI and DOJ payroll while they are at the epicenter of public scrutiny.

SMH.
