* All of this is reminiscent of Watergate, in this sense: after the fact, no one could figure out why the Plumbers bugged the Democratic National Committee, given that President Nixon was obviously going to be re-elected anyway. (The answer to that question may still be unknown, but that is another story.) Similarly, Barack Obama and his minion Susan Rice no doubt were confident that Hillary Clinton would win the election and serve Obama’s third term. Yet, they weren’t taking any chances.

Curioser and curioser.

From what I understand Carter Page never was with the campaign or the transition team. The Carter Page thing is another imaginary strawman.

Did they pick Carter Page because they thought he was the Mist likely conduit to the “Russians” or because they wanted someone the FISA court wouldn’t recognize and be able to tap any communications he might have, including Trump himself? If they had asked to tap Trump or someone well known in his inner circle they might have not gotten the usual FISA rubber stamp.

They claimed he was an agent of a foreign power to get that warrant.

Someone should be looking at the info that used to go on that fishing expedition.

They will continue to lie. Comey will continue to side with them and do nothing, which signals the left the lies are to be believed. The media will continue to believe the lies. The dems will not stop and Trump is getting a lesson on how to survive in a hostile world. He needs support and prayers!

This is exactly why Sessions should not have recused himself.

Now he can’t order the FBI to cough up their evidence.

People need to be convicted and sentenced to lifetime or worse for these crimes against the people of the United States.

Sessions just keeps building a case.

Did the FISA warrant include EVERYONE he was in contact with?

I assume this Washington Post story is true: “FBI obtained FISA warrant to monitor former Trump adviser Carter Page.” It confirms what has been sporadically reported since late last year, that the Obama administration sought and ultimately received a FISA order to spy on at least one associate of Donald Trump. So Trump’s famous tweets were, in substance, true.


This paragraph omits the other Trump people who were spied on by the Obama Admin. Did they have the court’s permission to spy on everyone? We know they spied on Flynn.

I can’t wait until this scandal is blown wide open. The backlash guarantees the GOP will gain congressional seats not just in the mid-term elections, but 2020 as well, and guarantees President Trump a second term.

It is frosting on the cake if any Democrats actually go to jail.

I don’t think it is so curious. Look at what they were doing with the IRS to stamp out Tea Party movements. Once Hillary won, they intended to prosecute enough of the Trump team to insure that Republicans never put up more than token opposition in future elections.

Maybe I should say, continue to put up token opposition, as in, Bob Dole, weasel John McCain, and pretty-boy Milk Romney.

So, let me see if I understand this correctly. Obama fabricated BS to get a FISA warrant on some no-name Trump campaign adviser so obama could “legally” spy on the whole Trump organization and turn the information over to Hillary. Then, when they unexpectedly lost they immediately transformed their illegal actions into the false Russian narrative to provide them cover if/when Trump should eventually expose the wiretapping. Remember - they, like 99.9999999999999% of the rest of the world thought Hillary would win, and therefore no one would find out about their illegal spying.

So, as usual ,and despite the usual enemedia jeering, Trump was correct after all: he was being wiretapped.

The Trump - Russians link was contrieved AFTER, the election.

The Dems ops realizing after they lost, that the spying was going to be discovered and how the frigg, were they gonna be able to explain that?

They never considered losing the election so the cover story and necessary ground work, never laid.

"it's the Russians"! - a gift & the chance to escape. That's why the claim "Russians hacked the election" as rediculous as it sounds, was shouted by the dems/left/media.

And any new info that came to light, the "it's the Russians" claim just steered right around it or with it. It must be accepted as post discovery of the original justification otherwise, the truth will stand out -high crimes & treason of 0bama's admimistration.

I'm wondering when bodies will start droppin.

Silent Coup was a book that had some interesting information about the DNC operation.

Mike Flynn and Carter Page can bring civil lawsuits against Rice—and maybe others.
