As far as the FBI investigating leaks, nada, zip, zero. According to Gloria Berger just now on CNN, her ‘source’ is ‘someone who talks to the President often’ enough to know his moods. Meanwhile, there’s another leak at the Justice Dept or whoever would have knowledge of grand juries.

I’m not sure the word meltdown is adequate here. This looks like a full psychotic break spanning an entire ‘news’ organization.

Amazing! Hilarious! Winning bigly!

Thanks for the ping.

and you can put this one in the ‘Trump was right’ pile

https://www.washingtonpost.com/.../was-it-appropriate-for-trump-and-comey-to-discuss-...
Claim: “I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation.”
Claimed by: Donald Trump

straight from the horses mouth:

“Mr. Comey did brief Ranking Member Feinstein and me on who the targets of the various investigations are. It would not be appropriate for me to reveal those details before the professionals conducting the investigations are ready. So, I will not answer any questions about who are targets of the ongoing Russia investigations. But I will say this: Shortly after Director Comey briefed us, I tweeted that he should be transparent. I said he should tell the public what he told Senator Feinstein and me about whether the FBI is or is not investigating the President.

On Tuesday, the President’s letter said that Director Comey told him he was not under investigation. Senator Feinstein and I heard nothing that contradicted the President’s statement.”

They just look hysterical.

The urban media believes their problem is they aren't hysterical enough. Their propaganda isn't working because they aren't screaming loud enough and they need to ramp it up.

As they say - if it weren’t for double standards, democrats would have no standards at all.

I was watching a video clip of Tucker Carlson last night and heard one of his associate analysts say that. I was a literal LOL moment and I cheered him for saying the honest truth!

Comey was and is a political hack and part of the Washington Establishment. Trump is not part of the political Establishment also known as the “Deep State and the Media. Trump fired him with good cause.

Today there is a death struggle between our elected government and the unelected political establishment.

Due to Trumps incredible successes as a businessman he wants for nothing. As to the fact he wants for nothing he is on our side of Constitutional Government.

In fact for him to run for president and win is a great personal sacrifice. He was living the gilded life and gave it all up to defend our great nation. He has sacrificed much and will sacrifice much more in the future.

Donald Trump loves our great nation as founded on the Constitution. Obama nor Hillary loved our nation as founded on The Constitution.
