We know that Trump jumped all over his words as "total exoneration" and called the Democrats "treasonous".

But that just seems too obvious, for some odd reason?

I cannot reconcile Rosenstein's sudden change of heart?

Or Mueller's silence?

That Obama bugged him

Now Barr wants to look into it

Even though Barr had zip to back it up and it did get looked into when Trump made that obvious lie

Lots of stuff not adding up.

FBI/CIA might be thought of as 'spying, and don't all campaigns do stuff like that?

There was a Russian presence in the campaign - “manipulating “ the “unwitting”

The Russians were "spying" on the Trump campaign. The Trump campaign were "mostly" unwitting agents, except for a few now in prison or ready to go to prison.

I could be wrong.

I certainly hope that the FBI director would finally stand up for his agents.

CIA too-- we know Barr's a lickspittle, but the agency heads-- don't they care that Trump is accusing their agents of a "coup?"

Now let me interpret for those who don't speak Assholese.

Russians under Fisa warrents were talking to the tRump campaign. So when Jr. and Jared were being traitorous assholes they would have been caught talking to the Russians.

So rather than being honest and saying "these fucking assholes were working with Russians who were under survellience, the spin is, "the tRump campaign was being spied on.

And Russians, and we don’t have ANY charges?

I trust none of them.
Including Mueller.

If the Obama administration didn't do anything about them, then the fix really is in.

He starts with the meeting Trump had with IC briefers on August 17 in the campaign.


1/ Did he tell his briefers about all the ways he knew his campaign had already been infiltrated and solicited?
2/ Did he reveal that he had a self-described “Kremlin intermediary” (George Papadopoulos) on his national security team?
3/ Did he reveal that his top national security adviser, Michael Flynn, had met with the Russian ambassador—and even Putin himself—in December 2015?
4/ Did he reveal that his national security adviser Carter Page had met with a Kremlin official in Moscow?
5/ Did he reveal that his campaign manager Paul Manafort had negotiated a key plank in the Republican platform with a Kremlin spy (Konstantin Kilimnik)?
6/ Did he reveal to his briefers that the Kremlin was trying to set up a secret summit with him?
7/ Did he tell his briefers—in fact—even the *smallest* piece of the veritable *mountain* of information he had about Russia’s covert activities, including outreach to him by Kremlin agents via Rick Dearborn, Paul Erickson, and others?
8/ Did he tell them about the deal he was secretly negotiating with the Kremlin and its agents for a multibillion-dollar tower in Moscow?
9/ When his briefers told him the Kremlin was trying to ingratiate itself with him, did he tell them about a Kremlin-connected Russian oligarch suspiciously overpaying him by *$54 million* for a house earlier this decade?
10/ Did he tell his briefers that a Russian oligarch tried to send hookers to his hotel room (a room he said he knew was wired for sound and audio) *after* he'd decided to run for office but *before* he'd announced?
11/ Did he tell his briefers that he'd secured land, funding, and permits for a tower in Moscow with Putin's favorite real estate guy as his partner in the deal?
12/ Did he reveal all the secret meetings his team had already had with Sergey Kislyak? Did he reveal all the business he'd done in Russia in the 2000s? Did he reveal Putin's invitation to the Olympics, or the invitation by Putin's builder's son to meet Putin at a birthday party?
13/ Did Flynn reveal to the briefers his secret plan to drop sanctions on Russia so that Russian companies could build nuclear reactors in the Middle East (once Trump had given U.S. nuclear tech to the Saudis and Emiratis)?
14/ The briefers had just told Trump that America was under attack—that his campaign was under attack. They wanted intel that could assist in their work. And we already know what Trump told them: no deals, no business, no nothing. He *lied to law enforcement* to cover for Russia.
15/ Why did Trump withhold *everything* he knew about the Russian plot—during the presidential campaign—to protect the Kremlin, even as he was being told that its crimes were ongoing? Why did he lie to U.S. law enforcement? Why did Michael Flynn? We *need* an answer—now. /end

Mueller couldn't come up with conspiracy or obstruction?

Smells real funny.

I tweeted it just now.

He thinks spying "did occur" but he is not ready to open an investigation on the Intelligence agencies at this time. The Inspector General is investigating at present time. Mueller likely concluded that Russia "spied" on the Trump campaign.
