So you believe in a police state.
Thanks for your opinion.
Nope. That’s not even close to what is being said. Avis this Conan. Try harder.
Your opinion article is full of allegations and unnamed sources. Amazing you’d share that one, considering how much you hate allegations and unnamed sources.
You’ve heard of probable cause, haven’t you?
Surveilling the actions of Russians that were actively seeking to gain access to the Trump campaign, and more than likely did, is not “spying on Trump”. It is surveillance of a hostile foreign power’s actions during an election.
Another juicy tidbit just dropped regarding Cohen’s pay-for-play operation - wonder what Trump’s cut was?
Thank goodness we have people investigating these criminals. Can’t wait for the penalty phase!!

Did you support an investigation into the Clinton Foundation?
If so, you believe in a police state.
Probable cause for what?
In a free society first a crime is alleged then the investigation finds out whodunnit?
In this case, (as with whitewater, karl rove and driving while black), we begin with “I don’t like him. Let’s fish until we find something.”

Nobody is this naive. Or are you?
Incorrect. Probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. In this case, Trump’s campaign participating with the illegal Russian involvement in the campaign.

The scope has been widened a bit a criminal conduct was uncovered, however Rosenstein followed DoJ protocol in doing so.
Now don’t all you righties feel stupid for not going to the source documents?
No, they don’t feel stupid. They are comfortably numb.

This isn’t a thread about discussion. It’s intended as an opportunity to call people names and leave.
No. This thread is all about the OP getting a second opinion on something he was already schooled on in another thread.

Or maybe I wasn’t talking about Mueller. The investigation and spy on Trump started almost a year earlier.
Don’t you feel stupid now?
You ain’t smart enough to school me lib.
You don’t get schooled because you never show up to class.
Tuck and run isn’t the same as winning an argument.

You may be a genius just like Trump. I’ll want to see a list of your “best words” though to be sure.
