The original question the FBI investigation of the Trump campaign was to answer was a simple one: Did he do it?
Did Trump, or officials with his knowledge, collude with Vladimir Putin's Russia to hack the emails of John Podesta and the DNC, and leak the contents to damage Hillary Clinton and elect Donald Trump?
A year and a half into the investigation, and, still, no "collusion" has been found. Yet the investigation goes on, at the demand of the never-Trump media and Beltway establishment.
Hence, and understandably, suspicions have arisen.
Are the investigators after the truth, or are they after Trump?
Set aside the Trump-Putin conspiracy theory momentarily, and consider a rival explanation for what is going down here:
That, from the outset, Director James Comey and an FBI camarilla were determined to stop Trump and elect Hillary Clinton. Having failed, they conspired to break Trump's presidency, overturn his mandate and bring him down.
Essential to any such project was first to block any indictment of Hillary for transmitting national security secrets over her private email server. That first objective was achieved 18 months ago.
On July 5, 2016, Comey stepped before a stunned press corps to declare that, given the evidence gathered by the FBI, "no reasonable prosecutor" would indict Clinton. Therefore, that was the course he, Comey, was recommending.
Attorney General Loretta Lynch, compromised by her infamous 35-minute tarmac meeting with Bill Clinton — to discuss golf and grandkids — seconded Comey's decision.
And so Hillary walked. Why is this suspicious?
First, whether or not to indict was a decision that belonged to the Department of Justice, not Jim Comey or the FBI. His preemption of Justice Department authority was astonishing.
Second, while Comey said in his statement that Hillary had been "extremely careless" with security secrets, in his first draft, Clinton was declared guilty of "gross negligence" — the precise language in the statute to justify indictment.
Who talked Comey into softening the language to look less than criminal? One man was FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, whose wife, Jill, a Virginia state senate candidate, received a munificent PAC contribution of $474,000 from Clinton family friend and big bundler Terry McAuliffe.
Also urging Comey to soften the fatal phrase "gross negligence" was key FBI agent Peter Strzok. In text messages to his FBI lover Lisa Page, Strzok repeatedly vented his detestation of the "idiot" Trump.
After one meeting with "Andy" (McCabe), Strzok told Page an "insurance policy" was needed to keep Trump out of the White House.
Also, it appears Comey began drafting his exoneration statement of Hillary before the FBI had even interviewed her. And when the FBI did, Hillary was permitted to have her lawyers present.
One need not be a conspiracy nut to conclude the fix was in, and a pass for Hillary wired from the get-go. Comey, McCabe, Strzok were not going to recommend an indictment that would blow Hillary out of the water and let the Trump Tower crowd waltz into the White House.
Yet, if Special Counsel Robert Mueller cannot find any Trump collusion with the Kremlin to tilt the outcome of the 2016 election, his investigators might have another look at the Clinton campaign.
For there a Russian connection has been established.
Kremlin agents fabricated, faked, forged, or found the dirt on Trump that was passed to ex-British MI6 spy Christopher Steele, and wound up in his "dirty dossier" that was distributed to the mainstream media and the FBI to torpedo Trump.
And who hired Steele to tie Trump to Russia?
Fusion GPS, the oppo research outfit into which the DNC and Clinton campaign pumped millions through law firm Perkins Coie.
Let's review the bidding.
The "dirty dossier," a mixture of fabrications, falsehoods and half-truths, created to destroy Trump and make Hillary president, was the product of a British spy's collusion with Kremlin agents.
In Dec. 26's Washington Times, Rowan Scarborough writes that the FBI relied on this Kremlin-Steele dossier of allegations and lies to base their decision "to open a counterintelligence investigation (of Trump)." And press reports "cite the document's disinformation in requests for court-approved wiretaps."
If this is true, a critical question arises:
Has the Mueller probe been so contaminated by anti-Trump bias and reliance on Kremlin fabrications that any indictment it brings will be suspect in the eyes of the American people?
Director Comey has been fired. FBI No. 2 McCabe is now being retired under a cloud. Mueller's top FBI investigator, Peter Strzok, and lover Lisa, have been discharged. And Mueller is left to rely upon a passel of prosecutors whose common denominator appears to be that they loathe Trump and made contributions to Hillary.
Attorney General Bobby Kennedy had his "Get Hoffa Squad" to take down Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa. J. Edgar Hoover had his vendetta against Dr. Martin Luther King.
Is history repeating itself — with the designated target of an elite FBI cabal being the President of the United States?
Back when Bill Clinton was stuffing cigars up teenagers we assumed the FBI would NOT use what they know against private citizens. We saw them as a law enforcement organization - NOT as opposition research thugs working for liberal 'elites'...
When the FBI decided their role was to protect liberal elites and bully private citizens AND republicans the FBI became a criminal organization.
Many in the FBI should be tried for treason...
It's time for the public to know the truth. The FBI was assisting with a coup against our form of government. They WERE THE PEOPLE attempted to steal an election and nullified the votes of the American people. The FBI was working for democrats.
Sean Hannity is a lucky retard.
My fingers are crossed. Sessions gave the camarilla all the time they need to hang themselves. I hope for a full broadside of grand juries, special counsels after the DOJ IG releases his report.
camarilla: noun
1. A small group of people, especially a group of advisers to a ruler or politician, with a shared, typically nefarious, purpose.
That is our FBI, an institution that turned on the American people. High criminals all!
Bingo! Excellent post.
Trump needs to think about putting together a branch of DHS stuffed with loyalists and tasked to arrest domestic enemy traitors at all executive agencies, especially the FBI, CIA, etc.
Arrest these bastards and bring them in for questioning.
Right now Trump has nothing but the Marines under his control.
That ought to scare the hell out of normal Americans nationwide.
Best question posted...
Is Mueller the ‘insurance policy’?
Skippy opened a spam and the spam-hacker got him. Skippy is responsible for his own hacking.
I know things are traditionally slower moving down south...probably because of the heat. But not this slow!!
every thing based on Trump’s actions suggests otherwise. he’s known all this for more of a year, yet it’s not until he begins to leak little by little.
We’ll see, time will tell. I hope I’m wrong.
Imho, the evidence so far suggests treason.
5.56mm
Yes, though I suspect this so-called investigation is going into more of CYA mode.
Did the FBI Conspire to Stop Trump?
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
After all this time and congressional probing, do we still have to ask the question?
Er...I forgot that we are such a dumb nation that we elected Obama TWICE!!
YES! ..and if Mueller ever ends the “investigation”...They will ALL hang!...(a real investigation can then begin)..and they ALL know it....
their only hope is that the truth can be postponed and the albatrose of “Special Proscuter” hung around Muellers neck will last for 8 yrs!!!!!!!!!......hope Mueller is familiar with Sisyphus * He has a lifetime appointment!...
“Sundance from the conservative Treehouse claims that Trump and sessions are putting together a justice infrastructure before they strike.”
He’s not wrong and the Conservative Treehouse gets a lot correct.
Remember, AG Sessions has been in office less than a year. He’s been blocked from naming a criminal division head and was held back from doing so until April.
There is a whole lot coming together. It’s happening. Now pray, sit by with a little more patience and see the strike back.
God will be with us.
Is the communist a pope?
Please copy and paste to me what I have said that either cheered or enabled Sessions. Oh, and Happy new year. How was 2018 for you? I’m sure you are done with the year by now.
2018 was good! So far I woke up, policed my back yard for fallen rocket parts while the German Shepherds played, then I investigated my frozen water spigot in the front yard. I hope it thaws without incident.
Then I made a delicious cup of Southern Pecan coffee. Drinking it right now whilst I cruise the interweb. Boy that stuff is good, especially on a freezing cold day!
So 2018, so far, awesome!
As far as copy and paste on Sessions goes, maybe I got you mixed up with some of the other Sessions zealots around here. Not sure, but if I did, I apologize.
Happy new year again...and best wishes for your frozen spigot!
Thank you very much!
I even had water running through it last night, and that sucker still froze.
Way, waaay too cold for Florida.
Happy New Year to you too!
