Stopping Robert Mueller to protect us all

[Common]

This is one of the best breakdowns and explanations of the entire coup on trump starting with his campaign.



The “deep state” is in a deep state of desperation. With little time left before the Justice Department inspector general’s report becomes public, and with special counsel Robert Mueller having failed to bring down Donald Trump after a year of trying, they know a reckoning is coming.



At this point, there is little doubt that the highest echelons of the FBI and the Justice Department broke their own rules to end the Hillary Clinton “matter,” but we can expect the inspector general to document what was done or, more pointedly, not done. It is hard to see how a year-long investigation of this won’t come down hard on former FBI Director James Comey and perhaps even former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who definitely wasn’t playing mahjong in a secret “no aides allowed” meeting with former President Clinton on a Phoenix airport tarmac.



With this report on the way and congressional investigators beginning to zero in on the lack of hard, verified evidence for starting the Trump probe, current and former intelligence and Justice Department officials are dumping everything they can think of to save their reputations.


But it is backfiring. They started by telling the story of Alexander Downer, an Australian diplomat, as having remembered a bar conversation with George Papadopoulos, a foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign. But how did the FBI know they should talk to him? That’s left out of their narrative. Downer’s signature appears on a $25 million contribution to the Clinton Foundation.

You don’t need much imagination to figure that he was close with Clinton Foundation operatives who relayed information to the State Department, which then called the FBI to complete the loop. This wasn’t intelligence. It was likely opposition research from the start.



In no way would a fourth-hand report from a Maltese professor justify wholesale targeting of four or five members of the Trump campaign. It took Christopher Steele, with his funding concealed through false campaign filings, to be incredibly successful at creating a vast echo chamber around his unverified, fanciful dossier, bouncing it back and forth between the press and the FBI so it appeared that there were multiple sources all coming to the same conclusion.



Time and time again, investigators came up empty. Even several sting operations with an FBI spy we just learned about failed to produce a Delorean-like video with cash on the table. But rather than close the probe, the deep state just expanded it.

All they had were a few isolated contacts with Russians and absolutely nothing related to Trump himself, yet they pressed forward. Egged on by Steele, they simply believed Trump and his team must be dirty. They just needed to dig deep enough.



Perhaps the murkiest event in the timeline is Rod Rosenstein’s appointment of a special counsel after he personally recommended Comey’s firing in blistering terms. With Attorney General Jeff Sessions shoved out of the way, Rosenstein and Mueller then ignored their own conflicts and took charge anyway. Rosenstein is a fact witness, and
Mueller is a friend of Comey, disqualifying them both.


Flush with 16 prosecutors, including a former lawyer for the Clinton Foundation, and an undisclosed budget, the Mueller investigation has been a scorched-earth effort to investigate the entirety of the Trump campaign, Trump business dealings, the entire administration and now, if it was not Russia, maybe it’s some other country.

The FBI called it “Operation Crossfire Hurricane.” It involved a wide-ranging Obama administration operation to spy on the Trump campaign, including wiretaps and even a spy embedded in the campaign, not to mention the Clinton-funded fake dossier they used to justify the whole thing.

Oh, there was “collusion” in the 2016 campaign, all right — but not between Trump and the Russians.

Slow but sure its all coming out in the light

Look up Lee Smith of the Tablet. He can take you thru all that has come out with the Deep State and the DOJ. Showing why its all a cover up, so nothing would be focused on the Democrats, Hillary, and BO the Peep.


Hillary was suppose to get elected and make sure that nothing was discovered and swept under the carpet.

The MSM in general will ignore this story.

Not just collusion.....but also major laws were broken with the CIA getting involved domestically. They aren't even allowed to operate in the US to go after other Spies. They were suppose to hand off to NSA and later it would be changed to Homeland Security.

The FBI is not corrupt, if someone broke the rules they will deal with it.

The "deep state" is nothing more than a conservative boogyman with no actual existence out here in reality.

Robert Mueller and his investigation team are protecting us all. You say "time and time again he's come up empty" but you have no facts to base that on and considerable evidence to the contrary. You dismiss the guilty pleas and plea bargains as "proceedural" as if you didn't realize that people please guilty to lessor crimes to avoid the big ones and imediatley fall for the rwnj media's cries of "but Hillary!" With a huge sigh of relief.

Open your eyes, come up for air, and look around at what is really happening. This is no witch hunt, no conspiracy. It's reality and you really should try facing it for a change.

The Gay Glenn Greenwald of the Intercept is not a conservative. He is one of your kind. Try reading up on what he says about the Deep state.

This way you can prevent yourself from showing that you aren't all that much in tune with reality.

The term deep state is used primarily in two different ways:

1. Many use it to refer to the entrenched high level career feds who can block the goals of elected and politically appointed officials simply because they know the system and are there for the log term.

2. Conspiracy theorist use it to mean a shadow government or control group outside of government but that exerts control over the government in matters important to them.
