An official at former President Obamas State Department has confirmed a claim made by Republicans that former British spy Christopher Steele and allies of Hillary Clinton gave him intelligence reports claiming that President Trump was compromised by the Russians.
In an op-ed for the Washington Post titled Devin Nunes is investigating me: Heres the Truth, former U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Jonathan Winer says Steele and Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal approached him with separate dossiers claiming malfeasance between President Trump and Russia.
Winers op-ed confirms the chain of events Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) detailed in a criminal referral for Steele, in which he asks the Justice Department to investigate the former intelligence agent for allegedly lying to the FBI about his contacts with the media.
I think the foot dragging on beginning the perp walks is getting to all of us.
That trick dossier gets passed around everywhere, in the Anti-Trump Beltway, gets a fly by at the FBI, then hustled off into the nearest FISA Court, (four times no less), gets repeatedly extended by Trump enemies, and is allowed to lead all of DC on a full assault against a fledgling White House transition team packed with outsiders who don’t yet know “come here” from “sic ‘em”, with no experience. All this, to take out a newly elected president.
It’s time for charges, trials and lock up. Where does this happen? Is Sessions going to play “Judas” for frigging ever? Where are the charges? It’s so maddening to see him sitting, but I remember he was that way in the Senate as well. Then when he said anything at all, he could take your head off and would blow up the opposition’s case.
Please, if you can’t have positive comments, or add value to a post, then refrain.
I know it’s tough, we all feel slighted by justice for the 25 yrs of Clinton. But, I have faith that justice is coming.
If it doesn’t, then we the people are going to be busy in the coming future years as we take it back.
Thank you.
It’s pins and needles times, but man is this fun. The evidence mounts every day, and I can only imagine what we haven’t even seen yet. Just waiting for some secret video and audio files to come out...
I imagine that there is going to be some serious digging into banking transactions and deposits that violate irs rules and money laundering rules. Nothing like a sexy fraud story...
The coup happened on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009.
The really important questions involve how did an ineligible man get there?
BOTH parties colluded to eviscerate the protections of the natural born citizen clause.
The Kenyanesian Usurpation could not have happened without the complete cooperation between them and the Deep State.
Obama was born a British subject.
Anyone born with multiple nationalities is naturally not a natural born citizen.
They ALL KNEW it.
Year and years of broken promises make a person cynical. I hope I’m dead wrong, but getting your hopes up only to have them dashed multiple times takes its toll.
I’d rather be pleasantly surprised than crushed again.
This makes Watergate look like jay walking, people were jailed wrt Watergate, here we have an AG who leads from behind refuses to prosecute proven crimes. I am amazed and severely disappointed in our justice system.
Oops....my pointer was on the word.
So when I scrolled down, I thought it said Blumenhal was an “escort” for the Wash/Po reporters at the time.
ROTFLOL.
I’ll admit I had much higher hopes with Sessions getting in that position, but he seems to be just another establishment squish. Disgraceful.
Add to your wish... “for some secret video and audio files to come out”.
How about that insane Warner— text messaging with the Russians just as he is accusing President Trump of “collusion”! Is that no a HOOT?
I despise that tag team, Burr & Warner. Burr the Republican NeverTrumper defends every single part and parcel of the US COUP attempt against Trump.
Defeatist much?
Good that President Trump doesn’t have such a similar outlook or we truly would be doomed.
I’m a realist. I’d love to get all excited, but recent history teaches me differently.
If Hillary didn’t perp walk on all of the PROVEN crimes that against her, I don’t see how this is any different.
“don’t want a paper trail”
Wow...and that’s supposed to be ok because they are agfraid it might be taken out of context?? Good grief....make some more rope, and pop more popcorn...
Lurkinanloomin, I just want you to know that I agree wholeheartedly with you regarding the Kenyanesian Usurpation. Both parties are culpable for that usurpation and the corruption that we’re seeing unfold daily.
The real victim here was Donald Trump. If nothing comes of it, then take it up with him because he’s the one guy who is actually in a position to do something about it.
Professional,
While I am inspired by your optimism, in 40 years as a Republican I have never seen anything indicating a collective backbone or willingness by the GOP or their governmental affiliates, to demand honest justice for crimes committed by Democrats. They are great at demanding Republicans resign over minor ethical violations, but unwilling to demand criminal prosecution of Democrat or liberal criminals.
So while your post is music to my ears, I expect nothing. No justice.
The only thing different this time is President Trump. But even he seems to be unwilling to see Democrat criminals convicted of their crimes, instead using them for political leverage to accomplish the goals of his agenda.
I pray you are right.
I will believe it when I see it. I will be SHOCKED if any of the corrupt top players in FBI, DOJ, the Obama White House, or Holary’s Global Foundation ever are brought up on charges, let alone convicted and sentenced to years in Club Fed.
The difference is one Donald J Trump.
LOL~!!!
Trump’s campaign slogan was “drain the swamp” and “crooked Hillary,” but dropped that as soon as he was elected.
