Rush:
His whole thing is imploding now. The Mueller investigation is, I think, on the verge of it. And, by the way, I’m gonna give you a little heads-up here. Based on a Kimberley Strassel column last week, a Wall Street Journal editorial today and a Washington Post piece earlier this week, I actually believe the FBI planted an informant in the Trump campaign — before Mueller was appointed, obviously.
This was in the summer of 2016, ’cause I think they believe this Russia stuff. I literally think… I’ve gone back and forth on this. I really think they believe… And I think this is why.. You know, there’s a FISA application for the warrant to spy, FISA, and it uses the dossier. But there have to be other things in that application. ...

And the story says the ‘role of the intelligence source’ could further provoke Republicans who have accused Justice and the FBI of engaging in ‘misuse of their surveillance power,'” and, here we go, “hinting that the government may have used the source to snoop on the Trump campaign.” There it is. So it’s a pretty safe bet that the FBI planted an informant in the Trump campaign. Nunes wants to know who it is; the DOJ says, “No way, Jose!”
The Washington Post probably does know who it is. They will not inform. ...these people — Mueller, the FBI, The DOJ, Strzok, Page, Comey, McCabe — it is absolutely incredible but it may well be that they believed this!
Even after learning that the Steele dossier is phony baloney as anything else they could have written, they really believed it. So they had an informant in the Trump campaign who was there to catch and to discover and to witness Trump’s collusion with the Russians.

Was their a plant in the Hillary campaign?
Of course not.
Satan underestimated Trump. He’s attacking Trump from all sides thinking that Trump is distracted while he attacks Israel.
I was highly irritated to hear Rush claim that the FBI planted a mole in Trump’s campaign because they actually believed the Russian collusion theory.
No, the FBI planted a mole in the campaign to accomplish what spies are traditionally tasked with — obtain information to be used against Trump — campaign strategies, etc. Insurance policy.
There was a face plant in the Hillary campaign.
Upon which her handlers tossed her like a side of beef into a van.
Some “Republicans” really aren’t.
They just pretend to be to climb the ladder of power and money.
If the wind is blowing Republican, that’s what will move their career$ forward.
Papadopolous
I think the question is did Obama plant an FBI asset in the Trump campaign.
If the FBI really believed the dossiers, wouldn't they start their investigation by doing surveillance or getting a warrant on Christopher Steele and Cody Shearer to dig out exactly who they talked to and gave them the allegations, tracing it back contact-by-contact to determine who had first-hand knowledge of the claimed events?
It appears they did none of that, but were basically told that the sources are secret and none of your business, so the FBI said okay and instead started spying on the Trump campaign.
I remember, all not too long ago, when the departing administration (Bill Clinton’s) took all the “w’s” off the typewriter and computer key boards as they left the White House.
How times change!
It could be Papadopolous. Sessions and Flynn seemed to spot him being pushy about “getting dirt on Hillary” right away when he showed up to a meeting they were having with Trump and others, but Trump Jr didn’t heed them and was later misled to meet with him anyway.
Papadopolous has UK connections or he wouldn’t have run into the Aussie Amb in London.
“High probability its Carter Page”
Bingo....we have a winner. It’s so obvious. Guy was an FBI plant, informant on another Russian hunt. This old gambit was dusted off and used again.
Can’t wait. This guy was so compromised and goofy in his Fox interviews. Can’t believe he hasn’t be smoke out until now.
Can’t wait till he testifies during the upcoming August hearings on the Hill. Stock up on your popcorn.......
I don’t even know what to say. IF true, we must get this into the open and have these people dealt with.
Bingo!
This makes perfect sense because that explains the Mueller team's refusal to level with Judge Ellis.
Judge Ellis was not buying it one bit. One more week until D-Day.
That is a thought.
I guess what Nixon did was a mere parking ticket compared to a great portion of this government, last administration and Hillary Clinton that should be hung for a coup and treason.
The outlines of a plot to cripple and or drive Trump from office are all out in the open now.
Lot’s of background on the guy.
The FBI uses informants everywhere and why not with Trump.....
We’re getting close to the truth.
I wish Gowdy wasn’t in this, he’s no longer to be trusted. Nunes is a hero.
I’m struck by Rush’s point—the President could declassify any or all of this any time he wants to.
Carter Page?? It was because of HIM that this whole thing started about Russia!! He’s out there with a stupid GRIN like the Cheshire Cat!
