I've actually been able to see the anecdotes you hacks pick get debunked as hoaxes in realtime on TWW, it has been very entertaining.

Some of my first "political" posts were in the hoaxes half of you gullible morons fell for regarding clock boy and the Mizzou BS. Most recently it's been even funnier though... we had the Anti-semitism "spike" get debunked as a leftist fake news journalist faking tons of bomb threats. I even predicted the burnt black church with the "VOTE TRUMP" painted on it, that one was as obvious as it gets and all of you hacks wouldn't believe it.

If you want me to actually google some right wing sites that would track a complete list I'm sure I could get you 1000 or so, but the fact that you won't even acknowledge the same anecdotes you post are debunked as hoaxes tells me you are beyond reasoning with.

Rubio, Conway, Huckabee, hannity and more all made comments on record before and after the election that being under FBI investigation made Hilary unfit. We'll see how they weasel out of this.

And at Trumps rally in Kentucky he said he forced keystone to buy American steel which of course is a lie.

So Manafort was extremely compromised, and horribly corrupt. Flynn may have been compromised. And the investigation is still going on to find out what level of communication Roger Stone had with Russian hackers, and more importantly, Trump. The Manafort revelations alone could be the thread that unravels the whole thing, bet so can Stone.

I honestly didn't think in the beginning there would be serious ties between trump and Russia but it's looking like this isn't the case anymore.

Makes me rethink my initial thoughts about the dossier released. Will be interesting to see where this goes.

Here's an interesting little tidbit... Trump and Tillerson had never met before Trump asked him to be Sec State, Tillerson didn't even want the job and was shocked at the offer. Who put this idea into Trump's head I wonder? Since Tillerson does have extensive dealings with Russia energy companies, and an ease in sanctions would be very, very lucrative for Russia especially.

I think it's very easy to believe Tillerson was maneuvered into place to make it more likely Russia could secure more energy export deals.

Last year, Kraig Moss sold the equipment for his construction business in upstate New York and stopped making mortgage payments so he could follow Donald Trump on the campaign trail.

The amateur country crooner sang pro-Trump ditties while strumming a guitar emblazoned with Trump campaign stickers, earning him the moniker "Trump Troubadour."
International media dubbed him "the voice of unheard America."
But now, Moss refuses to play the guitar with the Trump decorations. He's soured on the President because of the newly proposed Republican health care bill.
That legislation, which the president supports, could result in dramatic cuts in addiction treatment services.
Three years ago, Moss found his son, Rob, dead in his bed from a heroin overdose. He was 24.
"The bill is an absolute betrayal of what Trump represented on the campaign trail," he said. "I feel betrayed."

Fox (Murdoch) is trying to take over Sky. It's been sent to regulators in the U.K. government for approval.

Obviously a network accusing British intelligence of falseties would not sit well with the U.K. government.

Nunes just held a presser by himself to say an anonymous source (leak) told him that Trump's transition team and possibly Trump himself were incidentally caught on surveillance by intelligence.

Three questions or thoughts:

1) Isn't this obvious if they reach out to foreign leaders (which is their job to do) who are always under surveillance?

2) Even though this doesn't mean Trump's tweets were correct he will absolutely claim this as some sort of vindication.

3) Nunes was PART of the transition team. How can he be the head of the Intel committee given that fact.

I guess Nunes is okay with leakers in this instance but not in any other instance.

1) It should absolutely be obvious.
2) Yep, it's unfortunate. Thanks a lot Nunes.
3) I did NOT know this. Now I wonder what BS he was involved with in regards to this topic. All the more reason for a completely independent investigation.

GOP = Government of Putin

Quote :
""This is a normal, incidental collection, based on what I could collect," Nunes said today. "This appears to be all legally collected foreign intelligence under FISA."

Alarmed by what? What the contents were or the fact that it was incidentally collected based on legal FISA activity?

Ah, okay. I was confusing his campaign team with transition team.

I still think it's enough of a conflict in general that he shouldn't be involved, but honestly speaking, I'm not as worried about him if his involvement was strictly with the transition team.

To be fair, Nunes said there was absolutely no wiretapping and it didn't come from Trump Tower.

Trump's quote saying he was "vindicated" was the obvious goal of almpr this and it still doesn't make sense.

Does the GOP understand Pence can sign bills too?

So let me get this straight. He says it was all collected legally. But he says he's concerned they were spying on Trump.

The ONLY logical step from that is that if it was legal and it was spying on Trump then there was a reason for it.

I grow increasingly concerned about this guy running an investigation at this point.

Nunes statement makes trump look even worse though doesn't it?

And seems like Nunes is going to get himself in hot water since his actions were very different than normal procedure, which is going to again reflect poorly on Trump.

It's like they literally don't think anything through. It's funny Trump voters perceived this gross incompetence going back to the beginning of the campaign as being an "outsider" and maverick, when it was just stupidity.

Actually, it would be a problem if they unmasked his transition team on legally acquired intel. That would be a gross misuse of power.

But this does NOTHING to "vindicate" Trump. He lied. Got caught. And is now moving goalposts 5;345 miles down the road.

If it was a classified intelligence action, which I'm assuming it was since Comey would go no where near answering those types of questions on Monday, then it's a felony with consequences of 10 years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine. Nunes and Gowdy spouted that off at least 15 times each during Monday's hearing.

What Nunes said compromises his role in the Russia investigation and an independent committee/prosecutor is needed. It does not vindicate Trump at all. It was incidental meaning Trump officials contacted known targets of surveillance. That isn't remotely the same as what Trump tweeted. It begs the question of just who were they talking to?

What are the chances Nunes made all of this up to "vindicate" trump's tweets (that's what they'll claim)? The FBI may not be in a position to refute (they need Justice dept approval) for some time, Nunes didn't share with other cmte members because he has no evidence. They limped along using that "wiretapp" tweetstorm as a distraction/crutch for 2 weeksish, maybe they are hoping to stretch it another 2?

Believing that requires the assumption that the FBI is very close to arresting someone.

The only reason I question it is he was literally bitching about illegal leaks 2 days ago and the 2nd thing he does is call a press conference? No one is that stupid.

Several (maybe all) of the February bomb threats were allegedly made by this man, a former reporter for The Intercept:

However, what JCE#s likes to overlook is that this guy hasn't been tied to Jewish graveyard desecrations or the threats made after the above's apprehension. But that doesn't fit his narrative.
