I’m starting to form a really wicked theory about this. It’s just too juicy.

The Blizzard of Lies continues.
It’s getting more difficult to know what’s true.
The prior report sounded credible, but we must still question it, due to all the sour-grape Hillary Zombies out there.

They just keep making stuff up.
1. Comey asked for more resources and money for the Russian investigation. I watched part of the Senate hearing today and McCabe said they had all the needed resources and that if they did need more resources,they would have to ask Congress and not Justice Dept. Also Justice department denies any request was made to them.

2. Deputy AG threatened to resign. Deputy AG says that is false.

People are just throwing Poo on the wall and the MSM is doing their best to make it stick.

Isn’t it the Compost that just recently adopted some smug banner on their newspaper like “Compost requires darkness”.

It’s a fake news hat trick.

First they said Comey was expanding the investigation.
Then they said Comey had asked for more resources.
Next they said that the AAG had threatened to quit.

All fake news.

The ComPost quoted Jim Acosta who cited "inside sources" who "wished to remain anonymous" as is always the case.

In other words, Acosta just made it up and the Post ran with it.

Rosenstein turns out to be a good pickup for Trump.

Shortly after the news of Comey’s firing came out, newsies got ahead of themselves again by claiming Rosenstein did threaten to quit.

They have gotten in the habit of ‘reporting’ what they want to happen or hope happens, rather than what actually does happen.

BREAKING NEWS:

The Washington Compost just announced that the Deputy AG Rosenstein is quitting.... an ANNOMOUS source said that in the heat of an meeting he was having with President Trump, he told him straight up: “It's either ME or Comey, your not going to have both of us”...

My ‘fake news’ story sounds better, I think we all should start writing articles and posting them here under their headers and erasing what they say and put in our own stories!!!

Rosenstein is a true American Hero. Let’s hope the administration will stand tall for this guy should the necessity arise.
