    I've been googling this thing, and I swear, WTF is it? I'm not even seeing any serious red meat here. I'm not talkin' no sauce here, it's more like where's the beef?

    It is a ridiculous "slogan" in search of a scandal that is being written off as a complete joke (by everyone outside of the Faux/Trump Bubble).

    "Obamagate" is Already Dying:

    “Look, I got a article from corporate garbage media, that has no credibility, and absolutely no trust by the public to back my total lack of self awareness, because for over three years I was screaming at the sky, about how Trump was a Russian asset, and now I have the nerve to post this even after the Russia hoax turned out to be complete unadulterated bullshit.”- the OP

    Obamagate is indeed a Republican fabricated scandal. It is born out of the Trumpian scheme to pretend Trump never colluded with Russians. It plays upon the base's hatred of Obama for having not been the Right kind of president. It's timed to take the base's mind off of the piss poor leadership Trump has shown during the Covid 19 crisis. After all, one can only defend his ineptitude for so long.

    In simple terms, Obamagate is the name they are giving their narrative that Trump and all his people are good and upstanding and that it has been the deep state, secretly led by Obama to take down a duly elected president.

    It is just more of the conservative habit of trying to pretend things are other than they are. Barr dismissing the charges against Flynn is just the first or second act of this play. It plays into the narrative, that Obama had fired Flynn, more or less for insubordination.

    Some even claim that Obama, from his hidden bunker in Kenya, orchestrated the impeachment of Donald Trump, the president of low expectations. It includes having funded the Chinese laboratory that created the Covid 19 virus, with the express purpose of ruining the economy and making Trump look bad.

    And after all that, you haven't made a valid counter argument to the article's accurate assessment of Obamagate.

    You remind me of the lawyer who didn't have the facts, nor the evidence, nor the logic, whereupon the only thing he could do before the jury was pound the table.

    As for Trump being a Russian Asset. Maybe not to you, but to Russia, I'd say he's more accurately depicted as Putin's useful idiot, Putin's Puppet.

    The rest of your comment is without merit, and is your usual right wing cop out to avoid reading substantive refutation of a narrative whose sole purpose is to deflect from
    Trump's borderline criminal and disasterous handling of the coronavirus, the whole affair of which is what is actually doing the screaming, and no amount of hullabaloo from the WH changes that fact, and point sorely absent from right wing commentary.

    Mueller Report --- over 400 pages of some real serious ****, to wit (not to mention 10 clear cut cases of obstruction ).

    Obamagate is such an issue that not one person has been able to provide any documentation describing what it is. You’d think people would be able to supply link after link after link of credible factual documentation on it.

    They detail a Whitehouse meeting at which were Comey, Obama and other topic of discussion was nailing General Flynn's hide to the door by any means necessary. The primary reason being that him being part of the incoming administration would in short order put the kibosh and the whole Russiagate conspiracy theory and could tip Flynn off to the real Russian collusian crime Hillary and fusion GPS.

    OK - that is interesting - but - I thought the poster I was responding to was claiming these documents did not implicate Obama.

    Problem 1 : None of the charges in list you put up - (talking the non Russians here) - had anything to do with the legitimate scope of the investigation.

    Problem 2: Many of the Charges were obtained using coercion and nefarious tactics - up to and including Entrapment.

    And Trump made a couple drink fish tank cleaner. Riiiiiiight. Can't wait for Trump vs. "Weekend at Bernie's" Dem candidate debates. This is going to be so good it is almost painful.

    So spying on a political opponent then trying to take down a sitting President using unelected bureaucrats is nothing? Fascinating!

    Huber's job. While others have put together the time line and happenings along with the publicly released information as more documents are released the more damning it gets.

    Well, except for all the damning evidence, you might have something.

    giggle giggle. Conservatives can be so funny at times. The funniest parts are when the talking heads are exploding over obviously fabricated "theories".
