The GOP memo proves the ‘deep state' is real
Because of the memo and previous revelations, we know that swamp creatures are embedded in the top of the FBI and the Department of Justice. Some used their power to try to tip a presidential campaign based on their personal politics. They conducted a sham investigation of the Democratic candidate and misled federal judges to spy on at least one associate of her Republican challenger. To block exposure of their misdeeds, these officials falsely claimed that national security would be damaged. Add that despicable lie ‐ issued in the name of the FBI itself ‐ to their shameful records. Thanks to the battle over the memo, we also know with 100 percent certainty that the mainstream media is part of the swamp. The efforts by The New York Times and The Washington Post, among others, to keep the memo from ever seeing sunshine were appalling. ... The choice we face is especially stark given that the case at hand potentially implicates other top aides to former President Barack Obama. Recall that Page and others linked to Trump were accused of having ties to Russia, then their names were leaked to the media in a bid to sway the election and then to topple the president. There may be other flimsy FISA applications covering other Trump associates we don’t yet know about. The memo is a giant step in uncovering what appears to be an unprecedented conspiracy, but it is not the endgame. More documents, congressional hearings, investigations and criminal prosecutions are unavoidable. Hysterical Trump haters greeted the memo’s release by declaring that we face a constitutional crisis. They are right ‐ and they are creating it. Posted by: Anomalous Sources 2018-02-05 |
