    That doesn't take much.

    It is notable that throughout all this circus with the Justice Department, the Attorney General was very conspiculously absent from public view.

    I'm quite sure that Jeff Sessions is well aware of the nature of the Faustian bargain he made in order to get the job.

    There was an old saying that fits as a response to this thread. "NO SH!T SHERLOCK"

    It makes no sense because none of this leaked out before the election.

    If anyone was doing what Trump and his cultists now claim was being done, he would have been smeared before the election.

    Your not aware of Holding trying to get some attention? Imagine that. Considering he vying for air time with Biden, Bernie, and Kamala Harris.

    Of course the DOJ wasn't making it an objective to investigate itself or its people. Their objective was to assist in the cover up of anything getting back to BO the Peep.



    Grassley rips Strzok-Page redactions amid mystery text: Obama 'White House is running this'.....


    A top Senate Republican is challenging the Justice Department over extensive redactions made in files showing text messages between anti-Trump FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page.



    Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, drew particular attention to one text that suggested the Obama “White House is running this,” in reference to an unspecified investigation.

    But, like in so many of the files, a name was redacted and the context was unclear, though one report suggests that was related to the Russia probe.

    In a letter sent Wednesday to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, Grassley called for all redactions to be removed.

    “The manner in which some redactions have been used casts doubt on whether the remaining redactions are necessary and defensible,” Grassley wrote.

    As two examples of texts with unexplained redactions, he mentioned a text that had redacted the price of former deputy director Andrew McCabe's "$70,000 conference table" as well as the "text about the Obama White House ‘running’ an investigation, although it is unclear to which investigation they were referring.”

    Grassley added: “I am unaware of any legitimate basis on which the cost of a conference table should be redacted. Embarrassment is not a good enough reason.”

    A National Review story suggested that was indeed a reference to the Russia probe.

    The day after, Page also sent a link to a Glamour article about then-President Barack Obama......snip~

    Because it was UNKNOWN, as it was HIDDEN by the Obama Swamp KGB-FBI/DOJ, just like the "exonerate Hillary" texts, etc.

    And NOT ONE of the Leftbubble, here , or elsewhere, CAN ANSWER THIS, in any reasonable way:


    The Clinton Campaign, DESPITE spending $MLLIONS to contact the Russians for "dirt" on Trump, somehow, didn't need the same "protection from the Russians" as the Trump campaign allegedly did,

    Oh..ok.

    Then ANSWER THIS, PLEASE:


    Why didn't the Clinton Campaign, which spent $MLLIONS to contact the Russians for "dirt" on Trump, somehow, need the same "protection from the Russians" as the Trump campaign allegedly did, despite NO EVIDENCE ANYWHERE, of their APPROACHING THE RUSSIANS FOR ANYTHING?

    ok because you listed them makes them factual? where is the sourcing where is you evidence where is the proof
    me saying what you wrote is credible with no sourcing evidence or proof is the same a trusting a fat kid running a candy store

    every claim and assertion made in that time line is backed up by credible vetted sources and main stream media news articles which includes liberal ones like CNN and NYT which Atkinson provides through out the time line



    proves you are full of crap Atkinson does provide links through out her time line directing you to the sources of her claim proving you didn't even read the time line which discredits you commenting on it

    Yeah - that's kind of my point.

    If you were going to do something like this for political purposes, you would NOT hide it before the election. You would use it before the election.

    That didn't happen, which pretty much confirms that whatever investigations were taking place, were NOT being undertaken for political reasons.

    Seriously, the Trumpbot thinking seems to be that the Obama administration's thinking was, "Let's dig up some dirt on Trump. If we can't dig it up, we'll create some. And then, we WON'T use it as an October surprise! We will hold off until a year or two after Trump wins the election, and then slowly drip things out to undermine his presidency. That will be SO MUCH better than actually winning the presidency!"

    Just because Holder resigned, rather than face impeachment doesn't make him better.

    Say what.....Try again. He couldn't win before the election. Moreover Hillary's Book on What Happened, puts that reality check in play.

    Bullshit. They FOUND NOTHING, other than what they themselves had planted.

    They were ILLEGALLY approaching the Trump campaign for incriminating evidence. WHY TF would they expose themselves COMMTTING CRIMES (again) before the election?

    And , by all means, let's see if YOU can ANSWER THIS:

    Why didn't Clinton Campaign, which spent $MILLIONS to contact the Russians for "dirt" on Trump, somehow, need the same "protection from the Russians" as the Trump campaign allegedly did, despite NO EVIDENCE ANYWHERE, of their APPROACHING THE RUSSIANS FOR ANYTHING.

    WTF?

    So they were doing something illegal, but even if they found anything they wouldn't be able to use it because it would expose their own illegal activity? You really have drunk the kool-aid.

    I am still waiting for a cogent and logical explanation of how all of this was supposed to end up as a political tool when (1) it wasn't used before the election and (2) couldn't be used for fear of exposing their own criminal activity.

    In short, what was the supposed purpose of what (you think) was happening?

    And you are going to have to back up your assertion that the Clinton Campaign spent millions to donate the Russians for dirt on Trump. That is BS. It did not happen.

    NO ONE WAS "DOING ANYTHING ILLEGAL, except the Obama Swamp.

    Of course that's total BS..

    People involved in the matter said that they would not disclose the dollar amounts paid to Fusion GPS but that the campaign and the DNC shared the cost.

    Sadly, Steele, who probably ended up risking his life exposing the soft underbelly (LOL) of the Trump Russian collusion activities, only got paid a reported 168K.... so if Fusion GPS got "Millions", Steele got screwed royally...

    Two dodges:
    - still no cogent, logical explanation of how this was all supposed to help H Clinton, when it wasn't used and (according to you) never could be used for fear of revealing allegedly illegal activity
    - no link to any story supporting your second paragraph, in bold. It is BS. It didn't happen. Repeating it doesn't make it true.

    No matter how much Clinton or DNC spent with Fusion, Fusion is not "the Russians".
