REPORT: House Republicans Holding ‘Secret Talks’ To Build Criminal Case Against Senior FBI DOJ
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 12/20/2017 | Joshua Caplan

As of late, we have watched Republican lawmakers point a lot of fingers and toss out a bunch of theories as to who should be held responsible for sourcing, procuring and disseminating the discredited ‘Trump dossier.’ A new report reveals lawmakers are secretly building a criminal case against top Justice Department and FBI officials for mishandling “the contents of a dossier that describes alleged ties between President Donald Trump and Russia.”

POLITICO reports:

A group of House Republicans has gathered secretly for weeks in the Capitol in an effort to build a case that senior leaders of the Justice Department and FBI improperly — and perhaps criminally — mishandled the contents of a dossier that describes alleged ties between President Donald Trump and Russia, according to four people familiar with their plans.

A subset of the Republican members of the House intelligence committee, led by Chairman Devin Nunes of California, has been quietly working parallel to the committee’s high-profile inquiry into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. […]....

The leftist Democrats, thinking that they had a “permanent majority” felt way too bold and their feelings of invulnerability fooled them into dropping their masks and committing treason.

The “chickens are coming home to roost.”

Why so secret? Get it out there. The cronies will start killing each other off. Save the taxpayer the cost of a prosecution case. Dems have never hesitated killing their own.

You can say that again. I wonder how their work fits in with the Inspector General's report supposedly due in January.

“Apologies if I don’t hold my breath”

Exactly. For one thing, Sessions would never allow it.

That’s great - now all they have to do is find somebody to prosecute the case - from among senior DOJ officials.....

And afterwards, the FBI as a whole will need to be punished or diminished in some way. Top to bottom in that organization need to be responsible for allowing criminality to occur there.

We’ve had years and years of House Committee hearings and have seen Obama appointees repeatedly taking the Fifth. We’ve seen FBI directors and IRS muckety-mucks and even U.S. attorneys general thumb their noses at the law. Yet in all this time there have been NO indictments, NO arrests, NO convictions as a result of these so-called hearings. It’s time to indict the popcorn sellers for fraud.

Previous thread for the original Politico article, and links to several interviews from today with some of the the Congressmen in question.

This is but a small piece of the biggest scandal in our history.

The Kenyanesian Usurpation was treason.

Barack Obama is NOT a natural born citizen.

Barack Obama is NOT a natural born citizen.

This can be proven trivially.

1) He's Ivy League educated. (Columbia / Harvard).

2) He's a lawyer.

Therefore, he cannot be a natural born-citizen.

In fact, he was never born at all.

He hatched.

Jane...because Politico is pushing this story I’d have great reservations since they push for the GOPe....and Deo’s. Better to wonder why they’re pushing it out there.
