Maggie's Farm

We 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.

FBI and DOJ Officials Broke The Law And Tried To Decide The Election - an Annotated Timeline

FBI and DOJ Officials Broke The Law And Tried To Decide The Election - an Annotated Timeline (h/t reader) 


Two points were missed there. First, the info that Carter Page was an FBI agent/spy, and, second, the fact that Loretta Lynch has no grandkids to discuss on the tarmac.

The big question is, what did Obama know and when did he know it?

Again, paranoid right-wing conspiracy theorists turn out to be right.

great summary timeline. back in watergate days my buddy and me would say " truth is stranger than fiction" as we watched the hearings on tv onhot summer days.
Little did we know, though we had a good inkling

So as I understand this, the Clinton campaign fed lies to Russian agents and paid someone to feed them back to the FBI in order to inspire surveillance of the other candidate in the presidential race--and it's the Trump campaign that needs to be investigated by the FBI for collusion with the Russians?

That sums it up.

Carter Page shoots down speculation that he worked undercover for the FBI.

QUOTE:

"Our conversation was a great deal about his grandchildren," Lynch told reporters in Phoenix on Tuesday afternoon.

Just because Page claims he was not working undercover for the FBI doesn't make it true. On Ingraham's show the other day he did admit he was a 'witness' in an FBI case...one step closer to finding out that, yes, he was an informant and not just a witness.

You can keep trying Zachriel, but you aren't going to win.

Reminder: Nunes specifically said that the memo was about 702 violations, not Trump. The case of Carter Page was just the WORST example b/c it allowed for unmasking of anyone within his circle and beyond. This is about more than ONE case brought to the FISA court.

Sharyl Atkisson was on Tucker Carlson's show last night and very distinctly explained she has heard from more than one source that there have been many FISA court abuses of this nature...targeting the person you CAN target in order to get at the person you really want to get to...the 'incidental collection.

This is identical to what Nunes stated he saw at the WH SCIF last year...unmasked conversations of Trump campaign people & family that had NOTHING to do with Russia.

Pieces starting to fill in yet...?

MissT: Just because Page claims he was not working undercover for the FBI doesn't make it true.

It's evidence against the proposition.

MissT: Nunes specifically said that the memo was about 702 violations, not Trump.

Sure, but the memo includes demonstrable falsehoods, such as that Comey said the dossier was "salacious and unverified" when public records show that he was referring to only part of the dossier and left open that some of the dossier had been verified.

MissT: The case of Carter Page was just the WORST example b/c it allowed for unmasking of anyone within his circle and beyond.

Page was associating with Russian spies. And that's just what we know publicly.

MissT: This is identical to what Nunes stated

And Nunes misrepresented Comey's statements concerning the dossier, and also falsely said Trump never met Papadopoulos, so his statements are hardly definitive.

Zzzz:... he was referring to only part of the dossier and left open that some of the dossier had been verified.

Again with the misdirection, Comey never testified that anything was verified in the dossier.

Back to the sandbox, kiddiez.
