    Well, its about time. I am sure everyone is happy that allegations of abuse of government surveillance powers are taken seriously and investigated.

    Fine.... clear the air..... go for it.... I'm sure the DOJ is just sitting around twiddling it's thumbs....

    However, note that only one memo alleges government abuse..... while one memo defends the process in full.... When this investigation goes nowhere, remember this witch hunt was started by only one side... I know I will....

    Sadly the second memo didn't dispute the facts of the first... thereby corroborating the first, launching an investigation.

    You really have the balls to bring up witch hunts with the Mueller BS?

    The FISA investigation is tied to the witchhunt, it is not the source.

    I would prefer a special prosecuter to also include the DNC and Clinton campaigns collusion with a foreign national and use of phony information from Russia to try and undermine the election.

    I’m betting this thread gets locked unless an edit is made to the OP.

    Everything in due freaking time. If there are things the Trump Campaign did that were wrong, it's also now glaringly obvious that there are things the Clinton Campaign did, that were wrong as well. Which sums up what the 2016 Elections were.

    That said, Trump hasn't been that bad. Now Congress is another story entirely, and I'm far from a dye-in-the-wood conservative.

    I would, but time has expired. I always begin posts with links, looks like I overwrote it.

    Couldn't agree more... but which of the three do you expect to escape justice.

    I agree, a link has been provided on the 5th post. I think a moderator should sooner edit the link in your post than to close the thread. But that's their call not mine.

    When certain people in the FBI changed "extreme recklessness" to "carelessness", we knew that there were two sides of political justice in America. Us little guys, and the plutocracy. So I perfectly agree with you.

    So who will get blamed when nothing comes from this? Sessions? The IG? The deep state?
    Or will righties actually admit they were duped?

    If nothing comes from this, then yes I'll be satisfied. They are agents of the law, they determine whether or not actors can be criminally liable or not. I honestly want these kind of probes every year, that way no alleged abuse can occur. It can no longer be trusted to have a secret court in America.

    You’ll be satisfied? You’ve been accusing them of a variety of crimes thanks to the disinformation put out by Nunes. I assume he’ll lost all credibility in your eyes right? And Trump?

    Schiffs memo was a clever feinting maneuver,as Adam now claims Trumps people will "sooon" be indicted for colluding with the 13 absentee trolls. You'd think Mueller would want to keep something like that a secret ... especially considering the national security implications. :roflol:

    While Trump is correct, I disagree with him Tweeting this because it could be made to appear the only reason this is being done is because of political pressure instead of it being the right thing to do.
