Why is Trump even DEALING with Rosenstein?? Why didn’t he get Sessions on this? Obama’s spying has nothing to do with the fake ‘Russia’ nonsense.

Why isn’t anyone asking RINO’s McConnell and Ryan to speak out about this and the IG report ect.? They are the supposed “leaders” of the Republican party.

Just more of the Sessions jerk off. Trump can end it whenever he wants to.

Rudy is advising the President so I can only assume he knows what he is doing. They have already appointed a U.S. Attorney; Huber, I believe so he should get the call as well.

Glad to see this morning that members of the Freedom Caucus are introducing a resolution calling for a second special prosecutor.

Everything the feds do is a ruse when it comes to their unjustified bloated largesse. Except for the tab, which we have to pick up every day for the crap sandwich they feed us every day.

I posted this on another thread, but it is relevant here -

The strangest thing about the statement by him.....

“if anyone did infiltrate or surveil participants in a presidential campaign for inappropriate purposes, we need to know about it and take appropriate action”

He signed one of the FISA warrants. How would he not know because they surely included it in the FISA application? We have heard that there was other intelligence besides the Steele dossier in the application and he signed off on it! This is why they refuse to turn over the FISA application because it is full of engineered sourcing using intelligence operatives who were tasked with making contact and striking up conversation with campaign officials.

“we need to know” - but he did know. His signature says he knew.

The key to that statement is “inappropriate purposes.” Notice how the spin is changing from Clapper...... they are going to try and claim their purpose was noble and appropriate and they were doing it to “protect the nation.” I am not the smartest guy in the room by any stretch, but I have learned a few things and when they “change the narrative of the spin” you have to pay attention.

They are acknowledging that it happened now after over a year of this debacle, but what they are now going to claim is that it was “appropriate” and it was done to protect the President. Yes, it is laughable given the harm it has done to this administration, but it is the kind of justification their supporters will buy and lawyers can hide behind. Clapper recognizes this and his comments on CNN this weekend were a signal to participants to change the narrative from outright denial to one of righteous motivation. It is also a defacto admission that the bigwigs in the previous administration who have testified before congress and made numerous statements that “lacked candor” about this debacle were doing so to protect intelligence assets. They will hide behind that also.

Well, obviously Trump is a stupid idiot who has no idea what he’s doing...at least that’s what you would have to conclude after reading crap like this and most of what is posted by FReepers.

Separate what you “think” from what you actually “know”, e.g. what can be proven by reading primary source information with your own eyes. Everything else is opinion, hearsay, or spin.

Pour another cup and sit back and enjoy the virtue of patience while events play out. No amount of speculation or indignant comments online will have any effect on the outcome anyway.

So...Trump, John Kelly and Dan Coats were deceived by this Rosenstein ruse? Along with the entire White House legal team?

Is that the contention?

Laughable.

The ‘ruse’ about Mueller speaking with Trump is that it gives Mueller a chance to extend his ‘investigation’ due to something Trump states at the meeting.

Seems like we are never going to see the current IG report.

This is just another delay tactic.

Trump needs to rid himself of Rosenstein,the real IG that runs things, and get a new IG.

This IG report was supposed to come out in March. Now they say the release is close at hand AFTER it goes to the DOJ and FBI for review. The take here, is that it will be years before we get to the truth, UNLESS Trump fires Rosenstein and Sessions forthwith. Trump must take action.
