F.B.I. Opened Inquiry Into Whether Trump Was Secretly Working on Behalf of Russia

NY Times ^

NYT does not seem to want to tell us that this “investigation” was opened by McCabe and Strzok. We know how honest and unbiased they were.

I always said we should send Stormy Daniels gift certificates to Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan.

“We can’t spare this man. He fights.”

I believe it was the known conspirators (Comey, McCabe, Page, etc.) investigating a connection as part of their master scheme to overthrow a legitimate government - a crime for which they should face their day in court. I feel confident no one outside the FBI headquarters knew anything about it.

Agents and senior F.B.I. officials had grown suspicious of Mr. Trump’s ties to Russia during the 2016 campaign but held off on opening an investigation into him, the people said, in part because they were uncertain how to proceed with an inquiry of such sensitivity and magnitude

Well, no. That's the opposite of the truth (as Mark Levin pointed out tonight). The FBI inserted agents into the Trump campaign and, with the DoJ, colluded with the Hillary campaign, the Brits and even the Russians in a variety of efforts to extrap and subvert Trump campaign staffers and develop a Russian collusion narrative to use as October surprises and insurance policies.

By the time Trump fired Comey, Comey was up to his eyeballs in the resultant mess of illegal domestic spying based on fraudulent FISA warrants, etc and would not stop. Comey was out of control along with the rest of the corrupt FBI like McCabe, Strzok and on down the list. The FBI did nothing, and still has done nothing, to clean up their ranks.

The NYTimes is perfectly fine with that. Banana republic corruption of the highest law enforcement agency has to be celebrated and lied about. "Agents" were suspicious? Like Strzok? Those agents? Try corrupt and seditious.

Bingo. What a pathetic state of affairs.

He’s probably the cleanest president since Harry Truman .. er... Maybe Calvin Coolidge? Hell, he hasn’t ever held public office prior to a few years ago.

What a bunch of wankers

NY SLIMES disembelling the Page testimony to grease the skids for the mueller report

[Stingray51]

Cutting through the spin, the real takeaways from the article are that the FBI, on its own, initIated criminal and counterintelligence investigations of the President a) in reliance on the fake opposition research Steele Dossier; b) because they disagreed with the President’s political positions, which they believed were too pro-Russian; and c) because they feared the appointment of a new Director who might align politically with the President. This ought to scare and and appall every American.

[bkopto]

law enforcement officials became so concerned by the president’s behavior that they began investigating whether he had been working on behalf of Russia

Your Narrative Engineers at the NYT came up with this gem.

[central_va]

FBI tactics are no better then the Gestapo’s tactics.

[central_va]

Explain. What is non sense?

[central_va]

Ok, what gives the NYT is exposing FBI corruption (finally) and you call it fake news? Really?

[Trumpisourlastchance]

Trump still hasn’t purged the vipers in the Deep State & FBI. It’s needed or they will take him out.

[JoSixChip]

they began investigating whether he had been working on behalf of Russia against American interests

Based on what evidence or even hint of wrongdoing on Trump's part? After two years there has not been a shred of evidence produced to justify even the accusation. They have put people in solitary confinement, financially ruined others and violated every constitutional right Trumps has in an effort to manufacture evidence, and yet they still have none. The fact that congress, especially the gang of 8, know all this and still back mueller tells me everything I need to know about DC. Now we have reached the point that the nyt times would print the silliest story I have ever seen in print media.

[central_va]

No evidence has emerged publicly that Mr. Trump was secretly in contact with or took direction from Russian government officials. An F.B.I. spokeswoman and a spokesman for the special counsel’s office both declined to comment.

LAST PARAGRAPH.

[Jeff Chandler]

he called on Russia during a campaign news conference in July 2016 to hack into the emails of his opponent, Hillary Clinton.

That's a lie.

[JoSixChip]

I feel confident no one outside the FBI headquarters knew anything about it.

Garbage, we have already seen testimony that at least some members of the gang of 8 were briefed on the investigation even before Trump won the election. And after all that has transpired over the last two years, congress knows exactly what is going on. Yet they still back the investigation.

[odawg]

“Mr. Trump had caught the attention of F.B.I. counterintelligence agents when he called on Russia during a campaign news conference in July 2016 to hack into the emails of his opponent, Hillary Clinton.”

hack into?????

No, no, Trump suggested that the Russians FIND the MISSING emails. The server had long been shut down, and the witch was no longer a government official.

And also it was tongue-in-cheek. Did the FBI really think that Trump would signal to the ENTIRE WORLD his supposed ties to the Russians?

These FBI people are nothing more than despicable, deceitful white trash and they were manufacturing a reason to justify what they had previously, already started, which was illegally targeting Trump.

May I have extra pickles on this Nothing Burger?

This only confirms that the FBI was infested with Democrat hacks.

Were the agents Page and Stroked?
