Maggie's FarmWe are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for. |

So it now appears that it was Hillary and the Democrats, along with the Obama FBI/Justice Department, who were colluding with the Russians.
Why should we be surprised? Isikoff surprised? You have to be kidding. Yahoo is the home of the democratic socialist/communist fake news empire.
Yeah, surprised like Capt Renault in "Casablanca" : "I'm shocked, SHOCKED to find gambling in this establishment!" ("Your winnings, Captain.")
Isikoff : "I'm really surprised they used my article to get a FISA warrant!" ('Your payoff for writing that article , Mr. Isikoff.") QUOTE: The most unforgivable idiocy of the FBI Director, his deputies, and the Attorney General is this: They struck at the king and missed. Now it is time for vengeance. https://darktriadman.com/2018/02/02/the-fbi-memo-in-plain-and-simple-english/ IF Putin truly owned the White House the absolute first thing he would do is shut down all US oil company fracking by means of or EO's and EPA regs, to the HUGE benefit and relief of Russia's financial situation! (Hmmmm, I recall a POTUS doing that very thing...some guy named Barry...)
Oil is al the Russians have to sell. They need prices as high as possible and all competitors out of the market. Problem with the collectivists at MSNBC is they don't understand basic economics! And then there's this ditty from RT (that's right Russian TV) where Adam Schiff talks about greater transparency in the FISA process:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?t=323s&v=49FcGGUx-Z8 You can't make this up! And then there's this ditty from RT (that's right Russian TV) where Adam Schiff talks about greater transparency in the FISA process:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?t=323s&v=49FcGGUx-Z8 It appears there are two possibilities. Either there are a few bad characters who have worked themselves into higher positions in the DOJ, FBI, and IRS. Or, the agencies are full of people who believe they are entitled to enforce their version of the law even if it means breaking the law. Either way, this is exactly the behaviors that makes us say drain the swamp. Whether it's a few or all- just go away.
Stunning is the allegiance to the fibbin'FBI and not to the Country or to the Constitution. That alone makes them Oath Breakers.
This latest revelation is just the tip of the iceberg. It would appear that Obama weaponized the IRS, DOJ, CIA, NSA, FBI, State Dept. and others yet to be exposed in a massive anti-American, anti-constitutional coup. The Dems in congress were in on the plot and now they are in full offense mode to try to bury this huge takeover plot. The fight is still on, the dems think they can divert our attention from their crimes by pushing the Russian collusion meme even harder. This is the single largest constitutional crisis in our history and it is still a tossup over who will win/survive. If the Republicans can follow the leads and the law people will go to jail. Obama could go to jail (I don't think he or Hillary will but if we only followed the law and not politics they would). The only way to assure that a legal/criminal outcome will be pursued in this is by appointing a special prosecutor. If the Dems can delay all of this until after the elections they could take over congress and scuttle this. If the Republicans fiddle-duck around long enough the Dems lie,delay and confuse tactics can win the day. Without an authority with the ability to arrest and bring charges in a court of law this will all go nowhere.
What worries me the most is the MSM. If the free press is no longer doing their job and have in fact gone over to the dark side we are lost. IMHO it does not look good for justice right now. For some daily humor:
Jungle Trader QUOTE: Maryland Department of Natural Resources: That is one danger of hunting that is not discussed very much.An Eastern Shore waterfowl hunter is in stable condition at University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center after he was knocked unconscious by a dead goose falling from the sky. Robert Meilhammer, 51, of Crapo, was hunting with others shortly before 5 p.m. in the 25000 block of Voit Road in Easton, near Miles River, when the group fired on a flock of geese overhead. One goose fell about 90 feet to the ground and struck Meilhammer, knocking him out and causing head and facial injuries. When he came to, he was able to say who he was but was hazy about other details. QUOTE: Rod Rosenstein Threatened Chairman Nunes and House Intel Members in a Meeting 3 Weeks Ago And yet none of the members of the committee have confirmed the accusation, which is something that could be quickly and easily declassified, and in any case, something which members of the committee would immediate take action on. The News Junkie: It feels like political corruption all the way down. Why? Possibly due to your political predispositions along with a lack of skepticism leaving you isolated in your echochamber. QUOTE: Nunes Memo: Yet, in early January 2017, Director Comey briefed President-elect Trump on a summary of the Steele dossier, even though it was—according to his June 2017 testimony—“salacious and unverified.” But that is not correct. Comey's testimony said that parts of the dossier were "salacious and unverified", leaving open that other parts were not. Given such obvious propaganda in a document weeks in the making, one should be quite skeptical about the rest of the contents of the memo. QUOTE: Nunes Memo: Neither the initial application in October 2016, nor any of the renewals, disclose or reference the role of the DNC, Clinton campaign, or any party/campaign in funding Steele’s efforts, even though the political origins of the Steele dossier were then known to senior DOJ and FBI officials. Multiple reports confirm that the FISC was informed that the dossier had political origins. Also, keep in mind that Carter Page was associating with known Russian agents who were trying to recruit him. The FBI presumably has additional information not in the public domain. In any case, the entire argument doesn't make a lot of sense. If the dossier was a pack of lies compiled by the Clinton campaign to sink Trump, then it makes no sense they didn't release it. "The whole point of the doomsday machine is lost if you keep it a secret! Why didn't you tell the world, heh!" The Memo translated:
This memo is from the workers of those special Congressmen to their bosses. It’s about how the FBI broke the law about using secret courts to spy on Americans. It’s about how the FBI was using secret courts to try to overthrow Donald Trump. The memo says that the FBI lied with fake secrets and hid the real truth. The FBI didn’t tell the secret court that Hillary paid to have those lies made up. The FBI didn’t tell the secret court that the Democrats were laundering the payments. The FBI didn’t tell the secret court that it was a smear job on Donald Trump. The FBI Director knew the secret lies weren’t real and used them anyway. The Attorney General knew the secret lies weren’t real and used them anyway. The FBI Director and the Attorney General hid the money laundering from the court. The FBI knew the lies were paid for by money laundering. The FBI didn’t tell the secret court that Hillary and the Democrats were behind it. The FBI didn’t tell the secret court that the FBI was also paying for it. The FBI asked the secret court to let them spy because of a news article. The FBI didn’t tell the court that they planted that news article! And Hillary’s lawyer and consultants held meetings to make it happen. The FBI fired the man making up the lies but that didn’t stop it. The man making up the lies was lying to the FBI about himself, too. The FBI knew he was a liar before they ever went to the secret courts. The FBI had meetings with the man before and after he was fired. Senior executives at the FBI constantly talked with him about how they hated Trump. The FBI hid these conspiracy meetings from the secret courts. The wife of a senior FBI executive worked for the money laundering schemers. She collected lies paid for by Hillary and the Democrats and gave them to her husband. Then he gave them to the secret court and swore that the lies were true! The FBI knew the lies were bought and paid for from the beginning. The FBI director knew they were lies and accused Trump anyway. The special Congressmen heard how they fooled the secret courts. The FBI agent investigating Hillary’s crimes was having sex with an FBI Attorney. The FBI agents were exposed for leaking lies to the media to destroy Trump. Senior executives at the FBI met with them to discuss how to destroy Trump. Under a Title 1 surveillance request every single piece of evidence must be verified when presented to the court. Also the individual must be presented to the court as a foreign agent. No guessing is allowed under Title 1. Each and every individual who signed on to these surveillance requests committed perjury to a federal court judge each of the 4 times they filed the request. There are many, many, many years of nooses, nooses, nooses that must be attached to each of these lawbreakers. The blog, "The Last Refuge", still provides the best description of the rules and who broke them.
