no wonder these guys are in last place.
Couldn't agree with you more but unfortunately the option that is needed simply doesn't exist on tv. I flip between F&F, CNN and MSNBC. Yes they are all unwatchable but that doesn't mean that there still isn't lots to be learned..... as in 'what is the spin and the lies they are telling today.' If one watches those in conjunction with having the computer on and with FR up plus a few other websites (plus being willing to spend the time to view original uncut footage where possible), I think that's as good as it gets as far as being informed. The unfortunate part to getting good information though (and no doubt everyone here on FR full understands this) is the time it takes. If I could figure out how to get to the relevant informationthat I believe is solid but do it in 1/10 the time, I would be so happy....but that of course would make me suspicious that I wasn't getting the whole picture. Frustrating....
The MSM reports it...
But the sheeple CHOOSE to believe it.
2 Thessalonians 2:
For the Lord will not come again until many people turn away from God. Then the leader of those who break the law will come. He is the man of sin. 4 He works against and puts himself above every kind of god that is worshiped. He will take his seat in the house of God and say that he himself is God. 5 Do you not remember that while I was with you, I told you this? 6 You know the power that is keeping the man of sin back now. The man of sin will come only when his time is ready. 7 For the secret power of breaking the law is already at work in the world. But that secret power can only do so much until the One Who keeps back the man of sin is taken out of the way. 8 Then this man of sin will come. The Lord Jesus will kill him with the breath of His mouth. The coming of Christ will put an end to him. 9 Satan will use this man of sin. He will have Satan’s power. He will do strange things and many powerful works that will be false. 10 Those who are lost in sin will be fooled by the things he can do. They are lost in sin because they did not love the truth that would save them. 11 For this reason, God will allow them to follow false teaching so they will believe a lie. 12
They will all be guilty as they stand before God because they wanted to do what was wrong.
Unfortunately, until such time as some proof is offered or some action is taken, the story looks bogus. The left can simply claim Rice was investigating Trump’s connections to the Russians and keep that narrative alive. If no action is forthcoming, the only reasonable conclusion is that it probably amount to nothing.
Like union membership.
Not totally, although there is a fact vacuum.
The reports say that the investigators have looked for a "Trump / Russia connection" but there is no evidence of collusion.
If there is no evidence of some wrongdoing (either independently, or within the exchange), there is no justification to unmask the US person side of the exchange.
So, according to the press's own reports, Rice unmasked the US person side, without justification. I don't believe that is a crime, but it is contrary to procedure, and Rice was methodical in this breach.
Sharing the information with people not cleared to have it, leaking, is a felony. There is no question that there was a leak, somebody IN THE GOVERNMENT is a felon. I think Ben Rhodes will be the easiest one to convict, but it is unlikely he is the only leaker.
-- The left can simply claim Rice was investigating Trump's connections to the Russians and keep that narrative alive. --
She's allowed to investigate, but in order to unmask, she needs justification. That will be a fact question, what was said between the parties?
I have yet to hear one single allegation of wrongdoing on the part of the Trump campaign, and the allegation that the Russians hacked the DNC are based on a report that has been discredited.
That said, I agree with you. The press can move the goalposts, erect straw men, and otherwise evade logical and honest evaluation of the evidence it has provided to the public.
Yep, that’s pretty much how it goes on every issue.
If you find a particularly broad minded libtard you might end up with an admission of ‘it’s just how they feel, because they don’t like it.’ It applies to all things Trump.
President Trump could totally flip the script on this whole thing with one tweet....
“For the upcoming 2018 and 2020 elections, I am contemplating using the same intelligence agency resources against the Democrats that #dirtyrice used against me in the 2016 election.”
You would see every single media outlet scrambling to find out exactly what he means by that and what Susan Rice did or did not do. You would have elected Democrats freaking out over the possibility that the intelligence agencies could be used against them in 2018 and 2020.
Whenever anyone from his administration was asked about it they could say, “We have very specific information on the tools and methods that Ms. Rice used to gather and disseminate the intelligence and we intend to use the same techniques as she did. We really don’t want to divulge too much information about it though.”
You would see investigative report after investigative report trying to get to the bottom of exactly what dirty Rice did.
If they get away with this, we will have a loud and proud KGB operating in the open rather than the sneaky one we currently have.
Yes, and soon they would be emboldened to spy on the little people.
They already are spying on “political extremists”.
That is people who are in the alternative media, saying politically incorrect things on a variety of topics - speaking out against deep state unconstitutional activity or globalism/NWO, for example. From what I have gathered, they are particularity brutal to Christians and Libertarians who do this.
The media believes they are the alligators .... LOL
