#1 It is very likely the FBI and others were and continue to be involved in a clandestine intelligence collection effort and disinformation campaign against candidate and now President Donald Trump.

The larger question is, did they use a foreign intelligence agency (Christopher Steele and MI6) to help facilitate a classic 'false flag' effort ?

The evidence is certainly pointing in that direction.

#5 Rosenstein made an enemy in Jordan, which a wise bureaucrat would not have done. There is a move to replace Ryan with Jordan, and though that seems unlikely at present, Jordan should have a bright career.

#6 Have we crossed the 'obstruction of justice' point yet?

#7 Maybe at this point Trump should just de-classify the whole shebang and release it to Congress and eventually the American people? I'm thinking the reason that he doesn't is there might be a lot in the documents that would jeopardize a criminal investigation or unsealed grand jury indictments.

#8 @JohnQC - It's also too soon. Dragging this mess into the sunlight is a move that could save a Republican House in '18 or shore up a 2nd Trump term in '20 if well-timed (read "dropped very close to election day).

#9 Yes. The case is fabricated. Now Trump can play it for as long as he wants, any way he wants. Win-win-win.

#10 Wake me when the GOP idiots demand firings not impeachment. When they demand charges of sedation treason (with long prison) not "house cleaning".

Spineless twits never will.

#11

When you wake Woodrow at #10, wake me as well. (Caution - use a phone)

#12 MI6 can spy on Americans; the US agencies can spy on Brits. As fellow Echelon members they can trade info. Having the info isn't against the arcane rules if you've obtained it "legally"

#13 Ref #12. Unless something has changed over the past 20 years, one small problem. Executive Order (EO) 12333 prohibits collection on US Citizens. Circumventing 12333 for the purpose of collection is a big no, no.

Using information collected by a foreign intelligence entity for the purpose of legal action against a US Citizen, also a no, no. Again, unless something has drastically changed.

#15 Since when did these pigs in Washington let laws get in the way of things?
