#1 Nothing says 'failure' like Waco, TX Feb 28, 1993 – Apr 19, 1993. Before or after, an organization very difficult to handle from the clean end.

#2 You can never declare something a failure until you know what the real goal was.

I wouldn't trust any claims from these what would you call thems at all now.

#3 Russian involvement? I know that claim has been made repeatedly by our media but I haven't seen any evidence yet. This was largely a home-grown effort by the left/Deepstate (read as previous administration) with some input from foreign sources to keep Trump from getting elected and then take him down after he was elected.

#7 My shocked face is in storage
I smelled a rat from the beginning and knew that some of the last minute order sent out by Rice pointed the way to this being a palace coup

#8 Just in case anyone forgot, Steele's claims we're so f---ing obviously false, even a child with rudimentary knowledge of Russia and Russians could have seen that the man pulled them out of thin air.

Start with the fact that Trump like any westerner has absolutely zero chance of scoring a beneficial real estate deal in the heart of center-city, inner ring Moscow. Add the fact that Trump the germophobic hotel owner could not possibly even imagine soiling the presidential suite of someone else's hotel-- let alone doing so as an idiotic means of spiting an American guest at that hotel.

Who the f--- could come up with such a retarded scenario?

Answer: a pair of drunks at a bar, when one drunk is a mendacious and greedy, incompetent hack on the make and the other is a Russian agent plying the former with Krystal.

#9 "Too good to check" is a journalistic standard, not a law enforcement standard.

#10 Supervisor Special Agent FBI pay $164,028 per GlassDoor. Corrupt politician to over paid corrupt bureaucrat, "Don't forget who got you that kind of income."
