It doesnt matter what you think about Donald Trump revelations that a major partys administration was spying on another one deserve a seriousness thats lacking in major media coverage. A recent piece by CNNs Chris Cillizza encapsulates many of the absurd talking points adopted by an extraordinarily incurious media. And when I say incurious, I mean theyve taken to actively dismissing evidence regarding a story that would be a huge deal in any other era.
The persistent claim that Trump is abusing power for engaging in actions that are well within his purview is especially galling coming from people who would often characterize the previous administrations numerous abuses as nothing. Even today we are relegated to a Clintonian parsing of words to describe events.
Many journalists take umbrage at the contention that there was spying going on, because spying sounds far too serious for their liking. But its the right word. A spy is a person who secretly collects and reports information on the activities, movements, and plans of an enemy or competitor.
Now, perhaps were going to find out that informants were warranted and that their presence did not predate the official launch of the investigation. We might learn that a number of Trumps associates were part of some scheme to work with Russias Vladimir Putin during 2016. There is, to this point, zero evidence that is the case. Its hardly a conspiracy theory, no matter how over-the-top or politically motivated the presidents comments might be, to investigate the Obama administrations actions.
Bad opinions arent illegal. Putins support for a particular campaign doesnt immediately translate into criminality. What kind of precedent are we setting if theres no investigation into the Obama administrations actions?

This only defies logic, until you realize some day, that the Deep State owns/controls the DNC, the DOJ/FBI/CIA, our media and its fake news/lying mediots.
The MEDIA IS THE DEEP STATE.
And who might these three people be you speak of?
At least three could also mean just "three of us" or all the way up to and including all of "us" could aware of this reality.
I think the democRATS and establishment republicans are the legislative arms of the DSM corporations.
Not Defying Logic - when you understand that Leftists Lie as Easily as They Breath, and to them Truth doesnt matter - when it comes to furthering their poisonous agenda.
Disinformation (LIES) are seen as tools by them.
If America ever really wakes up and realizes the betrayal of them by this Left Media - the retribution WILL be terrible and I wouldnt give a plugged-nickel for any of these willful liars lives.
It has been many decades since media has been logical. They are more of a psychotic entity.
David, since when has the media been logical?
Whose logic are you referring to? Certainly real Americans are aware of this lack of veracity by the press and Media as a whole....that just leaves the Obama, his and Michelle's acolytes, that whole administration seems part of the resistance ....their logic???
“I think the democRATS and establishment republicans/GOPE are the legislative arms of the DSM corporations.”
So do I!
Be careful with this thinking.
I have had relatives and friends accuse me of ruining their sleep after I have told them about how deep in America the DSM’s are.
OUTSTANDING!
Can we use elsewhere?
Thanks Robert A Cook PE.
They rail on about how he has “no evidence” anyone has done him wrong and ignore that the whole witch hunt has come up with zero evidence after over a year of digging so many holes the Earth may self-disintegrate..

Is this issue so simple we're missing it? Hiding in plain sight have democrats have become the party of sociopaths, criminals, and totalitarians? Watch who democrats defend, who they attack who they condemn... A tree IS known by it's fruit.
It's not 'a mistake' - maybe it's LOGICAL within the new democrat framework. Maybe it's 'who Democrats are'...who they've become. Maybe it doesn't defy logic after all...
Noted, thank you.
