"If you don’t consider FBI lying, concealment of evidence, and manipulation of documents in order to spy on a U.S. citizen in the middle of a presidential campaign to be a major scandal, what is? "

According to some here - secret hand signals apparently.

"But none of this is aberrational: the FBI still has its headquarters in a building named after J. Edgar Hoover – who constantly blackmailed elected officials with dossiers and tried to blackmail Martin Luther King into killing himself – because that’s what these security state agencies are. They are out-of-control, virtually unlimited police state factions that lie, abuse their spying and law enforcement powers, and subvert democracy and civic and political freedoms as a matter of course."

But... but... they're patriots!

Read the whole thing. It's about time Trumps gets serious about these criminals and traitors.

"This system of unlimited domestic spying was built by both parties, which only rouse themselves to object when the power lies in the other side’s hands. Just last year, the vast majority of the GOP caucus joined with a minority of Democrats led by Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff to hand President Trump all-new domestic spying powers while blocking crucial reforms and safeguards to prevent abuse. The spying machinery that Edward Snowden risked his life and liberty to expose always has been, and still is, a bipartisan creation.

Perhaps these revelations will finally lead to a realization about how rogue, and dangerous, these police state agencies have become, and how urgently needed is serious reform. But if nothing else, it must serve as a tonic to the three years of unrelenting media propaganda that has deceived and misled millions of Americans into believing things that are simply untrue.

None of these journalists have acknowledged an iota of error in the wake of this report because they know that lying is not just permitted but encouraged as long as it pleases and vindicates the political beliefs of their audiences. Until that stops, credibility and faith in journalism will never be restored, and – despite how toxic it is to have a media that has no claim on credibility – that despised status will be fully deserved."

um, they were on him before he hooked up with Trump.

"Page was the subject of a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant in 2014, at least two years earlier than was indicated in the stories concerning his role in the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump"

Hey @lennco - you should consider renaming this thread the “yo momma” thread. Because at this point it’s about 10% political discussion and 90% personal insults.

This bill doesn’t stand a chance of passing, but YES! Makes a very valid point.

This impeachment doesn't have a chance of passing but let's spend millions of tax payers dollars and divide a country for political gain!

Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swedish climate activist, apologized Saturday after telling a crowd of young supporters a day earlier -- while speaking in English -- that politicians should be put “against the wall.”

Critics alleged that the remark, delivered in Turin, Italy, meant she was advocating for violence against world leaders who dodge their responsibilities to fight climate change.

“We have to make sure that they cannot do that,” Thunberg told the crowd. “We will make sure they, that we put them against the wall, and that they will have to do their job and to protect our futures.”

Another one bites the dust...

 

[enlytend]

And you're literally trying to defend somebody making white power symbols. It's on video

I bet if you expressed approval of the gesture he’d be all over you condemning you as a white supremacist. Maybe some reverse psychology is in order?

Actually the cadets flashing the white power symbol presents an interesting conundrum in that it’s similar to Colin Kaepernick kneeling during the national anthem...

On one hand, it’s free speech. However it was done while representing an organization (in this case West Point and the US Naval Academy) that not only doesn’t condone the act in question but deems it totally inappropriate.

Similar, but not really equal, because kneeling is not a hate gesture and a football player doesn’t in any way represent the US government. It’s hard to see how anyone could condemn the former (Kaepernick) and condone the latter (cadets.)

"We have to make sure that they cannot do that," she said. "We will make sure they, that we put them against the wall, and that they will have to do their job and to protect our futures."

In Swedish, the phrase "putting someone against the wall" means someone is forced to address difficult questions of a difficult situation."

Scuffles broke out Saturday during a Glendale town hall event on Armenian genocide that was attended by Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Burbank), who is at the center of the effort to impeach President Trump.

The event at the Glendale Central Library was meant for an Armenian organization to thank U.S. government officials for their support of resolutions recognizing the Armenian genocide. Schiff is a co-sponsor of a resolution.

As Schiff began speaking, a man and two women held up signs reading,"Don’t Impeach.” When they were asked to take down the signs, they refused.

Then, about a dozen people scattered throughout the auditorium began yelling, “Liar.”

When some in the audience asked them to refrain from yelling, scuffles broke out throughout the room. The audience members who were yelling at Schiff removed their jackets, revealing shirts supporting President Trump.

After about 15 minutes, the scuffles settled down, and the event continued.

Finally, the people are standing up to the B.S impeachment from the dummycrats headed by Adam shitts.

Yes, Sweden is the only country in the world where you put people "against the wall"
in order to give them a bouquet of roses and a box of candy.

Seems like the Swedish people have "put themselves against the wall" by naively voting for successive left wing governments that opened their borders to millions of freeloader invaders, who in turn have transformed many parts of that once fantastic country into a shithole!

... repeated insults, accusations

How does a conversation about the stock market, inspire you to tell me you're a White Republican? And you're literally trying to defend somebody making white power symbols. It's on video. You're trying your projection stuff again.

As I've explained in previous post, it wasn't about the stock market, it is your behavior, out of control ego and intolerance typical of the far left.

Only people who have a problem with the label "white republican" are bigots like you.

Intolerance? Bigot? If you mean that I have a problem with racists, white nationalists, fundy religious types who like to take rights away from people, etc. Yes. I'm on the right side of that stuff, I don't defend it like you. I remember when you made that comment at the time, that it was out of the blue, but we had a lot of White Nationalists topics in the news at the time and it seemed you were kind of feeling it.

And the reply was made when we were talking about the stock market, I literally linked to the page and the previous comments before you said that.
