It was predicated on a made up story the Pee Pee dosier which everyone knew was full of shit

Ah, no. That is what Trump and followers have been ranting on about for 2 years. You know the "oranges" of the Rusia hoax . The report says the investigation was predicated on among other things information from a friendly intelligence service. That the dossier la "pee pee" info had nothing to do with the "oranges" of the investigation.

So the much heralded report which was to be a new chapter in the Gospels of Donald, wasn't what the believers had faithfully and desperately time after time said would prove their leader's blathering, incoherent, exclamations of paranoid, deep state, anti Donald conspiracy. Sad, so very, very sad.

Swamp protecting swamp. Bunch of careerists trying not to rock the boat of fraud they all are part of.

Judge, jury and an executioner at the same time. Government says government did nothing wrong, boy how unexpectd.

Different branch of Government is overseeing FBI. And IG is not a political appointee .

This whole notion that the Criminals in the Coup attempt had to be biased is a Conard.
Bank Robbers aren't biased.

What they did was unlawful and that Bastard Lindsey Graham ought to be hung with the rest of them when their time comes.
No one can say Lindsey was biased, but he sure as hell has been playing along with the graft and corruption for as long as he's been Congress.

Just now.

"Former FBI Director James Comey said this week that your report vindicates him. Is that a fair assessment?" Sen. Lindsey Graham asks.

"I think the activities we found here don't vindicate anybody who touched this," IG Horowitz replies.

More.

This is noteworthy. Horowitz is NOT saying he has ruled out political bias in the FBI's 17 Carter Page FISA errors. Q: "Can you say it wasn’t because of political bias?" A: "I do not know."

There doesn't need to be bias proven here. Bank robbers aren't biased against the banks the rob. What every bad actor did was abuse their power, biased has nothing to do with it. This isn't show your feelings day. There was serious abuse of powers going on, and an attempted coup against he Elected President of the United States. Fuck their Feelings, I don't give three large flaming Shits, if they were biased when they were COMMITTING Treason or NOT!

The reports that there was sufficient concern to start an investigation. What is not emphasized by the TDS crowd is that the bar for starting an investigation is very low. What is also not emphasized by the TDS crowd is that the investigation continued in spite of "consistently exculpatory findings" at every turn.

Leftists are so easy to poke fun at! It’s all the inconsistency and flat out contradiction in their ideologies. I guess it’s a skill I don’t have... a sort of mental juggling that enables them to simultaneously believe two or three opposite things to such a degree that they are ready to punch anyone who can’t manage it!

If this were real and not a joke, wouldn’t surprise me a bit. Left is suicidal stupid.

fake news

Also from the Babylon Bee today, an article titled Trump's Popularity Surges After Nation Learns He May Have Obstructed Congress

I'm having trouble believing that this story is satire.

NoCoupForYou says

Horowitz found 17 "inaccuracies" in the investigation of Carter Page alone, including refusal to reveal exculpatory information to the FISA Court.

Yes that is correct but no other inaccuracies. And that was just one person.

Now we know who the fall guy will be.

I'm glad that the Great Socialist Paradise has found job placement for insane minors to act as propaganda ministers.

Ceffer says

propaganda ministers

They were called "useful idiots", except she's just useless.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

Page was an entertaining dolt

Yep that is true.

Pretty simple conclusions : First no political bias in beginning the investigation and there were sufficient facts per Justice Dept guidelines to open an investigation.

Second: the FBI was, at best, extremely sloppy in Their FISA applications for Page's surveillance. And the FISA system needs some serious over sight. But this happened after Page left Trump's campaign.

Third: Buttlicker Barr is a criminal and should be removed from his office.

Actually, western countries aren't anywhere near the worst at letting plastic get into the ocean. Not per-capita, not per-GDP, not in any way.

"Not biased against trump" is the authors editorializing (i.e. lying).

The investigation being justified means they could have looked into it and determined the Russian collussion was a fabricated theory in a few weeks.

The investigators broke laws. Trump did not. Period.

We shall see what happens to those who broke the law.

Barr is a criminal

How?

What did he do?

Not expecting a cogent answer.

What did he do?

Entered into a conspiracy with a criminal enterprise to obstruct the course of justice.

That explains the TDS.

Of course not.

All they got left is to call everyone they don't like criminals, racists and nazis.

They are trying to smear Durham too. Just watch.

Great news for Democrats!

I'm watching the impeachment hearings and the democrats just testified that they don't need a high crime or misdemeanor to convict the president.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

Extortion

That would be a high crime. Why aren't they charging him?

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

Completing Russian policy objectives out of the White House works.

FFS - can you name one "policy objective" that has benefited Russia in the last 3 years?

You mooks keep saying the same stupid shit over and over again thinking people don't have a brain to call this stupid shit out.

- Increasing US energy production decreasing the price of oil and money going to Russia and OPEC?
- Increasing US military spending?
- Shaming NATO countries to increase military spending?
- Shipping LNG to Europe?
- Sanctioning Russia?
- Sanctioning Russia's ally Iran?
- Bombing Syria
- Bombing Iran's allies (including Russian mercenaries) in Syria?

What "policy objective" for Putin and Russia was Obama promising here?

Giving away Crimea?

What was Obama's "policy objective" to famously downplay (even mock) Putin and Russia's meddling and aggression around the world during the presidential debates with Romney?

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

The referral will be going to the Senate.

Nope. Gonna be shot down next week. Pelosi has already pledged not to put pressure on moderate Democrats or swing state reps to impeach. That’s code for “I don’t expect this to pass.”

NDrLoR says

They were called "useful idiots",

Do the Dems give gold stars when you are promoted to 'useful idiot' from 'plain idiot'?

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

You might not have noticed but Mattis left after the Syria retreat as it was a pure play for Russia and a disaster for the states and the rest of the world.

Last I checked, I believe Trump has more troops in the Middle East right now than Obama had after he inexplicably fulfilled Russia's "Policy Objective" of removing every last US troop from Iraq letting ISIS take fire in the Region inviting both Russia and Iran into Syria.

Speaking of Russian "Policy Objectives" - I totally forgot this doozy from Obama canceling the missile program in Poland at Putin's request.

There is so much about Trump that is worthy of legitimate complaints on both the Left and Right. But this fucking dumb as shit "Trump is a Russian Asset" bullshit is beyond retarded.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostikovitch says

You might not have noticed but Mattis left after the Syria retreat as it was a pure play for Russia and a disaster for the states and the rest of the world. The creepiest part about it was Trump quoting Russian positions in his pronouncements.

That withdrawal was stupid as in we sell out one of our very few allies in ME (Kurds) so that we would not be trusted by anyone, but I do not see how Russians benefit from it. They are now sucked into Syria quagmire full time.
