So now a FBI informant has been exposed (who was working with the FBI as they did what they’re tasked to do).
This guy, and his contacts, were informing the FBI on a number of things related the the US and it’s security/sovereignty. That is bad news for the U.S.
If no Russian conspiracy involving the campaign is proven, then we need to investigate and determine that there was a huge amount of probable cause. If not, this is indeed bad news for the US. How would you consider a similar situation if Nixon had used an FBI mole in McGovern’s campaign?
Government officials used the power of the federal government against US citizens. This is not okay and it’s not going to turn out well for these lawless individuals.
We need to find out. Using the FBI to spy on a Presidential campaign is not the same thing as a crime family. If illegal conspiracies with Russians is actually revealed, that should be evidence enough it was justified. If not, this needs to be examined further unless the current administration is always allowed to use their agencies to spy on political opposition.
It can be. We need to be vigilant that it is not. Remember when it was a big deal that Nixon would infiltrate the anti war movement? Probably not old enough.
