FBI watched these guys for years and they never knew. These trained Russian spies were watched for a decade without them knowing the FBI knew *everything*.
Gives me hope that Mueller has Trump dead to rights.

(13,925 posts)I did not know where she was going with the spy story. Then BOOM!!! linking a fantastic FBI case Strzok. I thought it interesting that Strzok complained about ALL the candidates, not just tRump. The right wing only looks at the attack on the prez though... Selective truth I guess.

so how long has limbaugh been working for putin?
since turning russian hacked emails into climategate in 2009?
or before that, forcing manafort-managed mccain to choose palin or he wouldnt support him on the eve of the GOP convention in 2008?
or spending over 6 weeks to get the US to default in 2011?
and of course, limbaugh endorsed russian control of crimea today, while trashing NATO and loving trump

(13,526 posts)Heathfield and their children...the FBI investigation is barely mentioned, but just the story of the family alone is unbelievable -
But I wanted to chime in and note that Andrew McCabe statement after his firing began with
I have been an FBI Special Agent for over 21 years. I spent half of that time investigating Russian Organized Crime as a street agent and Supervisor in New York City.
That puts him in NYC aka Trumptown from approximately 1997-2007...so oh hell yeah, Andrew knows some shit, and LOSER45 KNOWS he knows.

Behind the Aegis
(53,988 posts)...I said to my husband, "Wouldn't it be neat if the Congress badgered him so to a point where he asked them for permission (don't know the legality of it) to give them exactly what they want, and then he spills his guts?!" If they demand he give them classified info, then berate him for not doing it, I wonder if there is an out for him to actually give them the info (hopefully without compromising the safety of others) in a public forum!

(32,731 posts)If the FBI suspected someone was killing & chopping up women but didn't have all the evidence yet, would they allow him to kill more and more people for months while they got their shit together? If he's guilty of even a 1/10th of what many people suspect, he should NOT be in office!

Say whaaaat?
Sure! Let's hear it! Maybe he can give them an estimate of how many of their staff are actively sending the russkies info right now. Maybe he can tell them down to the penny how much of their election finances were approved by Putin personally. Maybe he can dramatically point out which congressman or senator asking questions is an active and unknowing dupe.
Tomorrow is must-see TV.

that was one of her best "connect the dots" telecasts. I hope it's repeated instead of those dumb "Dateline" things over the weekend! In fact, MSNBC should do an entire weekend on this story!

(15,290 posts)This couple were trained spies yet they had no idea the FBI had seen the contents of their safe deposit box (twice), bugged their house, entered their house, took photos of their notes and had them under surveillance for years.
This info alone should scare everyone who conspired with Trump and Russia. The FBI counterintelligance division is more than capable of finding out everything the conspirators are trying to hide and probably has.
While I was listening to the opening segment, I really thought Maddow was using it to tie Carter Page into the plot, not Strzok.
