Schutze is one of my favorite liberals. Hates Trump, mocks conservatives but he does find acorns.
An interesting read for thoughts from the other side.
Trump didn’t call all FBI personnel scum. This is the usual misquoting by another lying leftist.
I blew him off completely by his mischaracterization of President Trump referring to FBI agents as SCUM, which they are, the ones who conspired with Cllinton, Clapper, Comey, et. al., to bring down a sitting, duly-elected President.
Eff him and his liberalism and acorns.
He needs to listen to that small voice of reason.
“I wanted to believe every word, because he was essentially calling President DonaldTrump an idiot, which I believe.”
Err, umm... , you really want to confess this in public?
First off he was talking about the leadership of Comey & McCabe, and both truly are scum. He also said there are many fine people in the FBI. So I side with President Trump, they are indeed scum.
The acorn of that story is that after Lucas was convicted of killing his mother and after serving 10 years they let him out. Luca begged prison officials not to let him out because he would “kill again”, he pleaded. Guess what, the liberals let him out and then the killing spree started. I am not sure what you find “interesting” about what this liberal writer has to say about anything.
>>Trump crudely and unfairly maligned a great American institution when he called FBI agents “scum.” That part I still believe.
Ask the writer what he thought of Hollywood’s treatment of J. Edgar Hoover. What does he think of G.Gordon Liddy?
I’m sure there are heads of the FBI and agents that he thoroughly is disgusted by.
So why when Communists were in the FBI should they be shielded by the scum label?
“Calling F.B.I. professionals ‘scum,’ as the president did, is a slur against people who risk their lives to keep us safe. Mr. Barr’s charges of bias within the F.B.I., made without providing any evidence and in direct dispute of the findings of the nonpartisan inspector general, risk inflicting enduring damage on this critically important institution.”
Tell this turkey to go see the Richard Jewell movie which covers a real life case where FBI agents attempted to railroad an innocent man so they could wash their hands of a case and play the hero, accuracy in conviction be damned.
“I wanted to believe every word, because he was essentially calling President DonaldTrump an idiot, which I believe.”
Yeah? Where’s your ten billion dollars in assets, genius?
>>Lucas, who died of natural causes in prison at age 65 in 2001, confessed to more than 100 murders and was supposedly a strong suspect in 500 more. He was convicted and sentenced to death in one of those killings, but his execution was commuted by Texas Gov. George W. Bush after a Times Herald investigation proved Lucas was innocent of that murder.
This is an old prosecutor trick. Ball up a lot of charges, get someone who is guilty of some charges, to confess to all of them so they can close the books and in exchange he can get life in prison instead of the death penalty. It happened in the Pacific Northwest with the Green River killer.
I think it is a travesty of justice to say that Henry Lee Lucas couldn’t be executed because one of a number of capital offenses was ‘wrongfully confessed’. He was guilty as sin in horrible murders and there is no doubt in that regard.
>>Lucas was confessing to dozens and dozens of murders he had nothing to do with and would have known nothing about had he not been coached.
There have been instances of some people confessing to crimes they’ve heard about while in prison to let some other criminals go free.
>>The Church committee called Adams and other top FBI officials to task for the FBI’s egregious abuses of power in a top secret program called COINTELPRO
They got the charges against Bill Ayers for bombing the Pentagon dropped because they believed the Weathermen’s rights had been violated.
Guilty as sin yet free as a bird
>>I’m still going to bet on the FBI and the press. But I may not bet the entire farm.
So when the FBI was chasing Communists they were bad but now they they hire Communists (along with the CIA) they are good guys?
The only thing the Observer is good for is toilet paper, but I would never subject my ass to that worthless rag!
