FISA Abuse Memo, prediction thread (update post 120 maybe)

Obama...death penalty...

C'mon son, I really shouldn't have to clear that up.

I dunno man...

You and @ripskater were thick as thieves and he was CONVINCED that Pres. Obama was going to run for a third term...

I’m glad Nancy is a democrat and not a Republican especially after watching that interview wow it sounded like broken Marco at the debates. It’s weird at the last minute there is a “democrat” memo rebuttal, why wouldn’t they do that from the start if it was such a partisan thing. The issue people have with the dossier is if that is what got the go ahead to conduct surveillance on Trumps campaign then that is working off of a lie. I think the memo isn’t so much about the Muller investigation but more about the collusion efforts to stop Trump while people in the intel community were on duty and probably protection for Hillary with the email investigator.... also the WR pres losing it in this thread reminds me of the Las Vegas shooting thread he took a exposed turnbuckle to the face then lol

No. You're just putting conservative posters in the same pool, and making up your own narrative. I never communicated with Rip too much, and certainly never lent any credibility to an Obama third term.

Nice try, but the fact of the matter is, you just thought my blatant joke was serious, because you're that tightly wound right now.

"Evidence of potential collusion between the Trump camp and Russia has always gone beyond the dossier, including contacts that have been revealed in court documents as part of the investigation by Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller.

And Washington has already previously hashed out complaints by Trump and Nunes about the abuse of surveillance powers, from Trump's claim that Trump Tower was wiretapped to Nunes' charge that people in the Trump orbit were wrongly "unmasked" by Obama administration officials."

Yea so why do people think this will make Muller go away some how ?

 

[Fawlty]

A quality article that people might want to read about the history of special prosecutors, and the precedent for investigations continuing even through executive obstruction of justice:

Huh? I was just pointing out that the dossier wasn't the reason trumps administration was being investigated or trump having his accounts looked at.

Regarding Mueller, some people believe Trump will use the partisan memo as an excuse to fire Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and place a shill in his place to reign in Mueller or fire Mueller to stifle his investigation.

Will this happen? I doubt it. This investigation will continue, and indictments will occur. This isn't going to end well for any corrupt officials

Now kiss.

Lmfao

So what about the Trump campaign insider that contacted the FBI about Russia? Was that part of the conspiracy as well?

What's their name?

 

[Gunny]

I sought out this article as I wanted to hear the argument from the left (Washington Post) on why we shouldn’t believe the Memo. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wa...eptical-of-this-gop-memo-criticizing-the-fbi/

Check it out if you’re interested. I’d say two of her three points can be reduced to “we should be suspicious of the serious claims the memo makes because it makes such serious claims.” The third is essentially “the Republicans were out to get Trump too.”

 

[Tekk]

Without any evidence to back up such serious claims.

 

[PainIsLIfe]

You'll have to ask the fbi. It came up in the Senate inquiry though. Of course the GOP tried to keep it hushed.

Wow, quoting someone who doesn't exist to make a point you can't back up with evidence. I'm sure everything in this conversation is being expressed in good faith.

 

[HereticBD]

They're going to torpedo transparency by offering an alternative explanation?

A last minute rebuttal to a memo they desperately don't want released, and have done everything in their power to block?

Yeah, motion denied, Councillor.

 

[Fawlty]

I've never seen a group of people so convinced about the content of something unknown. It's quite the event. Parasols and roasted peanuts required.

Those are just things you think affect the relative credibility of the rebuttal memo (they don't - it doesn't take long to create a rebuttal to a 4-page initial memo). But even if they did, that's unrelated to transparency.

Don't worry cupcake, we're going to see it soon.

What it is it that you think I have to worry about? Seems like you're the one with expectations in peril, not me.

Just for now, I'm dubbing it The Ark of the Covfefe.

You do understand the deputy director of the fbi was just removed from his position over what is in the memo?


Have you seen the news in the last day? They are freaked out, and pulling in guests like john fucking kasich (what a loser) to cry, and running gossip headlines about Melania.



There’s something in there.
