What if a president used his power to interfere with a federal investigation involving foreign powers committing serious crimes in the United States as well as elsewhere? Such a thing would be considered a terrible scandal and, no doubt, lead to a federal probe by a special counsel who would be expected to get to the bottom of such a mess. But if you think this is a reference to the investigation led by Robert Mueller into possible collusion with Russia during the 2016 campaign and obstruction of justice once President Trump took office, youre wrong. While proof that the Trump campaign actually plotted with Russia still has yet to be presented, evidence of another scandal involving President Barack Obama and Hezbollah, Iran and the Russians has just been uncovered in an investigative story by Politico. The tale involves an administration decision to spike Project Cassandra, a federal probe into international drug smuggling, money laundering and terrorism by Hezbollah.
The motive for interference with the justice system was to appease both Moscow and Tehran during Obamas quest for a nuclear deal with Iran. It happened because, as Politicos sources made clear, a decision was made at the highest levels of the Obama administration to prioritize making nice with Iran and Russia over the federal governments obligation to protect US citizens.
Its the sort of thing that ought to rock Washington. An actual plot that placed the interests of foreign powers over those of the US by Obama.

Barack Hussein Obama and pretty much his whole administration belong in federal prison.
I wonder if hillary would have been a gracious loser, and the dems let their loss go, would these things have come to light?
“Damn - youre right. Hezbollah was able to traffic drugs with impunity because Obama spiked Project Cassandra to help Irans nuclear program. So with the increased supply of heroin, there was an increase in the number of deaths.”
Anyone want to wager that it was Hezbollah who was pushing Fentanyl to create the Opioid epidemic? Now that would be a good fake news report to go after Obama with.
“Its the sort of thing that ought to rock Washington.”
Why? They all probably knew about it. Why do you think no one stepped forward about the release of huge amounts of bank held funds that had been frozen for years from Iran when Obama and Clinton made their historic “deal.” Simple. Because they didn’t want to get caught in it if it broke and someone cared. So far. no one has cared. (They should)

If he deserves it.( fair trail and all that.) I think it would send just the right message.I dont need to see Obama go to jail — The Fop
IMHO convicting The One — or Hillary! — of a crime would have to anticlimactic. You would need to make such a powerful PR case in favor of it that when it actually happened it would be a foregone conclusion. You would essentially have to delegitimate the Democrat Party as an entity in order to accomplish that.And since at this point the Democrat Party is a creature of the MSM, your first step would have to be to persuade the public of the truth that although the MSM is free, its members are not independent. That, IOW, the public has been seduced into relying on publications which espouse a single, pseudo-objective, opinion. And considering that
The natural disposition is always to believe. It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing.that case, although readily supported with facts and logic, is not easily embedded in the public consciousness.The man whom we believe is necessarily, in the things concerning which we believe him, our leader and director, and we look up to him with a certain degree of esteem and respect. But as from admiring other people we come to wish to be admired ourselves; so from being led and directed by other people we learn to wish to become ourselves leaders and directors.
. . . The desire of being believed, the desire of persuading, of leading and directing other people, seems to be one of the strongest of all our natural desires. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)
Try to indict the last two nominees of the Democrat Party without first delegitimating the Democrat Party, and you got trouble. Right here in River City.
The criminals hide behind the Democrat Party like it’s some kind of golden shield that allows them to lie, cheat, steal and murder.
It’s not a golden shield.
It’s a union of criminals.
The Fentanyl would have a different source than the ME. That idea probably originated among our Leftist American friends.
There are those of us who have never believed that the democrat party has been legitimate for the last 150 years.
We just look at who they nominate and elect, criminals all.
Since the days of Tammany Hall, the Democrat Party has elected no one who was not connected to their politically, morally, ethically, corrupt organization for any office, no matter how great or small.
Mayor and city councils: look at the cities they run.
Governor: look at the states they run.
Congress and Senate: look at the corrupt agendas they push.
President: Look at Clinton and Obama.
Candidates for the Presidency: look at Hillary Clinton.
The history lesson is over.
Dinesh DSouza would carry that argument all the way back to Andrew Jackson.
