1. The article was from CSN Bob: https://www.cnsnews.com/news/articl...j-are-you-telling-me-i-need-shut-down-clinton
2. McCabe pushed back against it and it didn't affect the investigation, and the existence of the FBI's investigation ended up being a factor in the election.
3. No, I think it is fucked up. You okay with the precedent Trump set kicking the VP and AG out of the room so he could ask the head of the FBI to lay off Flynn and the Russia investigation, Trump firing the head of the FBI because of the Russia investigation, legitimately wanting to fire the special counsel appointed to the Russia investigation, legitimately wanting to fire the deputy AG because of the Russia investigation, and trying to bully the AG into resigning because he rightly recused himself from the Russia investigation and could no longer protect Trump?
Those are great talking points, however let’s dig a bit deeper.
Who was it that initiated speaking in private? Comey. On multiple occasions he spoke privately with trump.
Did he order the Flynn investigation stopped? No
Everyone in the country wanted Comey fired. Please don’t make me post the tweets from chuck and Nancy, I’m sure you’re aware of this.
Furthermore, of course it would bother me if I were trump, receiving tons of heat in the press, and the fbi Director refuses to come out and state that the president himself is not under investigation.
Of course he wants to fire Meuller. It’s an ongoing distraction which you know damn well is never gonna touch trump himself.
Protect Trump? From what? He’s about the only guy who hasn’t broken the law in all this.
