Marc Thiessen: The Trump-Russia collusion hall of shame
Fox News ^ | March 29, 2019 | Marc Thiessen

The news that Special Counsel Robert Mueller "did not find that the Trump campaign, or anyone associated with it, conspired or coordinated with the Russian government" has left a lot of people in Washington with a lot of explaining to do.

Put aside the rogues' gallery of reporters and pundits who assured us that Donald Trump had conspired with Vladimir Putin to steal the presidency. What is most insidious are those who did have access to classified intelligence and led Americans to believe that they had seen what we could not: actual evidence of Trump-Russia collusion.

Recall that in 2016, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., released a letter to FBI Director James Comey claiming the FBI had proof of Trump-Russia collusion. "In my communications with you and other top officials in the national security community, it has become clear that you possess explosive information about close ties and coordination between Donald Trump, his top advisors, and the Russian government," Reid declared. When asked what information Reid was referring to, a spokesman said, "There have been classified briefings on this topic. That is all I can say."

Trump has called for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., to resign. He is absolutely correct. Schiff repeatedly said that his committee had dug up "plenty of evidence of collusion or conspiracy." In March 2017, he said on "Meet the Press," "I can't go into the particulars, but there is more than circumstantial evidence now" and last May he told ABC that Trump's Russia conspiracy is of "a size and scope probably beyond Watergate."

President Trump put it well at the rally:

Collusion delusion.

Some of them knew there was nothing to it and cynically pushed it anyway.

The real crime is that they (including the media) KNEW nothing would be found, but continued to waste time and money on a fraudulent investigation and promote leftist political theater.

Check out Dan Bongino on You Tube. He put together the most comprehensive case on what went down. Has a second book coming out. He makes the case that Mueller knew that the dossier was fake in 2016. and positively in July 2017. He makes it all clear.

It’s time for people to be charged with treason and or sedition. Adam Schiff needs to be run out of congress and he can take that pig Swinewell with him.

When enough people say it, makes it true-at least with mindless sheep. No offense to sheep.
