More on The Report: FBI Had Mole Spying on 2016 Trump Campaign
2018-05-12
BLUF:
[PJ] Also potentially problematic is the timing of the spy operation, because it could indicate that the FBI has not been straight with congressional investigators about when their counterintelligence investigation started. The bureau insists that the basis for their probe was George Papadopoulos' drunken ramblings in July of 2016. But if the spy was put in place prior to that, the FBI has some explaining to do.

We just received internet in our mountain valley and we have been watching “Game of Thrones”. In light of our current political situation, I have started comparing the program’s characters with our current politicians.
Tyron Lannister = Trump - both are intelligent, daring and slightly flawed individuals.

Lysa Arryn = Hillary Clinton
Robin Arryn = Bill Clinton - Lysa nursed Robin much to long - she was in love with power and died because of it.

Theon greyjoy=mueller - a nutless traitor to our nation

Viserys Targaryen = Obama

Yes.

"Civil service reform" gave us "multi[arty" politics and single party government.

Thanks, Rutherford B. Hayes!

#5  to collect on US Persons involved in a presidential election campaign is very serious business.

But.... but... but... Stormy!

This is why the media is in a tizzy over some minor affair which nobody really cares about. As this widens watch for something 'big' to be staged to distract the public.

#4  POTUS needs to have little sit down with NSA Director ADM Mike Rogers.
This to be closely followed by a sit down with Sessions, Rosenstein, and FBI Diector Wray. Both COS Kelly and Rudy Giuliani need to also be in the room.

If Sessions, Rosenstein, and Wray do not have the correct answers, all three should be fired on the spot.

Using GCHQ (British Signals Intelligence) as a 'cut out' to collect on US Persons involved in a presidential election campaign is very serious business.

I'd go ape on them in a way that would make Erdogan jealous.

#2  The traps need to be run on both the Stefan Halper and Carter Page potential involvement. I'm not at all certain everyone on Capital Hill actually wants to know however.
