Trump Orders the DOJ and the FBI to Look Into the Illegal Spying Operation Conducted Against Him...

This is the mother of all stories: President Trump is now calling the Department of Justice and the FBI to investigate the biggest scandal in American political history, which in the POTUS' view is bigger than Watergate. Whatever you want to call it: CIA-Gate, FBI-Gate, Brannon-Gate,  we now know the name of the spy planted by the CIA and the FBI to infiltrate the Trump campaign , as it has been officially confirmed over the weekend: the mole is none other than Stefan Halper, currently a Cambridge University professor and a Swamp regular so to speak, i.e. a longtime aide for establishment politicians in DC, as he served in three Republican administrations He's a rabid never-Trumper, and he openly said he voted for Hillary in 2016.

Stefan Halper is known for having extremely close ties with both the CIA and the MI6 (Britain's version of the CIA), and he's in particular very close with a former boss of MI6.

Here's from the New York Post:

"Halper made his first overture when he met with Page at a British symposium. The two remained in regular contact for more than a year, meeting at Halper’s Virginia farm and in Washington, DC, as well as exchanging emails. The professor met with Trump campaign co-chair Sam Clovis in late August, offering his services as a foreign-policy adviser, The Washington Post reported Friday, without naming the academic. Days later, Halper contacted Papadopoulos by e-mail. The professor offered the young and inexperienced campaign aide $3,000 and an all-expenses-paid trip to London, ostensibly to write a paper about energy in the eastern Mediterranean region."

Meanwhile the TV news is fixated on school shootings and volcanic activity in Hawaii.

McCain? Why would they bother? He’s part of the swamp. Plain? Almost certainly yes - they spied on her.

BtW I’m guessing Halper is a sacrificial lamb. Deep State might Arkanacide him soon. I’d actually be surprised if they didn’t.

A crime they themselves were in on.

What could possibly go wrong?

Conspicuously absent from this whole story ... is the name "Sessions".

Well, he's been absent since he was sworn in, so....shrug.

Trust Sessions.

Ridiculous.

You Freeqers need to confine your religious ramblings to your private prayer threads.

Official spying by the federal government on an opposition candidate’s campaign is really bad. Federal government spying on a candidate’s election campaign for a foreign government (like the U.K.) is far worse. And it appears that there’s been more than one incidence of Obama Administration spying on the Republican Party for the U.K.

The U.K. has favored Democrat candidates for a long time. Brits were throwing tantrums over Bush being elected. It also appears that some un-American judicial folks want some foreign governments having a say in our elections by way of spying, entrapping, sabotaging, falsely accusing, obstructing and possibly falsely prosecuting the first morally conservative (in deed), pro-American President we’ve seen in a long time.

No, they would claim they have executive privilege, regardless if Trump waives it. As a US Attorney once told me, “the law is what I say it is”.

MI6? Consider what they did to Pollard for spying for an ally.

Trusting Sessions, at this point, transcends religion. It’s logic. Trump fears no man. There’s no logical reason for Trump to keep Sessions on board...unless Sessions is doing what Trump wants him to.

Thus, Trust Trump.

That isn't logic - it's blind faith.

Trump doesn't keep Sessions on because he wants to. We know this because Trump has repeatedly denounced him in public.

The only reason he doesn't fire the useless potted plant, is because the alternatives are worse.

Yes, impeachment is constitutional for any executive officer.

No, it’s not reasonable or practical. The seven-step process not only would take about a year, but it requires the 2/3 vote of the Senate. Not gonna happen, probably even if we pick up 5-6 senate seats in 2018.
