So our CIA thugs crowned themselves ‘smartest people in the room’ and sh*t on the Constitution and American people... and gave themselves power to choose a leader...it was treason.
All CIA thugs in on the cabal should be ferreted out, tried for treason and put to death‘
It just may be.
Two words: Deep State.
Ya think?
Yeah, overthrow an election,toss a duly elected President to get a woman in office who will give ‘intelligence thugs’ free passes, lots of money, power, and larger fiefdoms.
Then pretend it's just 'bias'... This ‘bias’ is self-serving. It's not a disintrested theoretical choice. It's "you give to me,I give to you" old fashion criminal thuggery.
Find, em, jail, em, and when proved guilty - put the traitors to death.
