He Did It, Not Me!
American Greatness ^ | May 19th, 2019 | Victor David Hanson

Posted on 05/20/2019 1:27:45 PM PDT by detective

There is something Kafkaesque about the current round of investigating possible FBI, CIA, National Security Agency, Justice Department, and National Security Council wrongdoing during the 2016 election, Trump transition, and early presidency.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller had been permitted to range well beyond his mandate of “Russian collusion.” He outsourced much of the selection of his “dream team” and “all-star” staff of attorneys to his deputy, Andrew Weissman. In turn, Weissman—who commiserated with Hillary Clinton at her ill-fated “victory” party on the evening of her defeat—stocked the team with Trump-haters, liberals and progressives, Clinton donors, a few who had previously served as attorneys for the Clinton Foundation, and Clinton or Obama aides. Most of these were themselves briefed during the early dissemination of the fraudulent Steele dossier.

Yet after all the bias, prosecutorial leveraging, the process crimes, the perjury traps, and after 22 months, $34 million, and a 440-plus page report, Mueller’s “hunter-killer” team did not establish that President Trump colluded with the Russians to warp the 2016 election.

In fact, Mueller could not find prosecutable “obstruction” of justice by Trump to impair the investigation of what Mueller concluded was not a crime.

The appointment of William Barr as attorney general has sobered the lawbreakers, and perhaps soon the media, which may not wish to go down the drain with their erstwhile FBI and CIA speaking-truth-to-power heroes.

No longer are Brennan, Clapper, Comey, and McCabe along with a host of others insisting that they acted nobly. No longer are they in solidarity in their defiant opposition to Donald Trump.

Now, for the first time, they are pointing fingers at one another, because they have come to realize that their prior criminality may not be rewarded, praised, or even excused, but rather prosecuted.

This made me think of a rather famous Thomas Nast cartoon featuring all the members of the Tweed Ring standing in a circle, each pointing a finger at his neighbor. I believe it first appeared in Harper’s Weekly in 1871.

The caption: “Who stole the people’s money? Twas him”

I don’t know how to post artwork to this forum, but perhaps some enterprising FRiend might take over for me on this one.

I’d like to see everybody who facilitated the Kenyanesian Usurpation hanged.

McCain already escaped.

McCain already escaped justice was my thought, my fingers only delivered part of it, sorry.

Not an unlikely assumption on his final fate.

Until they point many detailed fingers at Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, they are just the designated fall guys.

McCain shouldn’t be buried in a place of honor.

My take on this … they all claim they had valid reasons and evidence to go after Trump. They did it for the good of the country, etc. etc. And of course, everything they did, they did by the book.

So, my question is, if that’s all true and they believe it is true, then why are they not welcoming an in-depth investigation by AG Barr? He’s only going to find that they are great Americans and great patriots, right?
