That supposed FBI investigation of collusion with the Russians? Never mind . . . They’re in retreat now. You may have missed it amid President Trump’s startling Saturday tweet storm, the recriminations over president-on-candidate spying, and the Jeff Sessions recusal — a whirlwind weekend. But while you weren’t looking, an elaborate narrative died. For months, the media-Democrat complex has peddled a storyline that the Putin regime in Russia hacked the U.S. presidential election. There is, of course, no evidence that the election was hacked in the sense that the actual voting process was compromised.

“Flynn called the Russian ambassador from the Trump tower and the press has a transcript of the call.”
Where did you hear that call was from Trump Tower?
It’s game, set, match if that’s the case.
“The enemy is trying to spin it as Trump having a temper tantrum on Saturday and thus, being unfit for office.”
Gutfeld and Perino were on this today. She was adamant that Trump is silly. They’re, as a lot of Trump haters, motivated. If Trump is right they will look bad for having been against him
I guess former NeverTrumper Andy McCarthy is finally starting to get it. It`s interesting to watch the light bulb finally turn on for these people as they finally realize what a master strategist Trump is.
At least McCarthy is a quicker study than Trey Gowdy, who continues to make snarky comments about Trump`s use of Twitter, and his `unpresidential` demeanor. Gowdy`s not as bright as I once thought he was.
The Flynn intercept doesn’t settle anything, the claim is that the tap was on the Russian Ambassador and Flynn got caught up in it. I don’t think we know that Flynn was on the phone from Trump Tower with the ambassador, either — he could have been somewhere else.
If the tap wa on the Russian ambassador, why haven’t we heard about any other transcripts (other than Flynn”s?)
And Obama was the one who certainly deserved it
Never-Trumpers Gutfield and Jasper’s-owner Peroxide already look bad - Trump won. Yet somehow they’re still on the air.
Gingrich on O’Reilly say Flynn was tapped in Trump Towers.
The light bulb goes on in O’Reilly’s head as he agrees with Newt. This exchange happens at 5:45 in the video.
“Newt Gingrich on Bill O’Reilly Obama wiretapping ‘Excellent disclosures revealed” March 6.

Jim Comey?
The inescapable fact is there are transcripts where there should be none of Flynn. That is known and is not disputed, even by the Dem leader of the House Intelligence Committee last night on Carlson. Carlson nailed him on it and he stammered and tried to change the subject.
Did they not notice that Bannon is a Hollywood producer, a media mogul and a hedge fund founder? Name me one Democrat with a similar resume.
Flynn’s office was at the Trump tower during the transition. I doubt that he made calls to foreign ambassadors from home. I believe he called dozens of them.
So, based on this fact alone, it’s accurate to say that the Trump tower was wiretapped whether or not Flynn was the target. And to eavesdrop on US citizens domestically you need a FISA warrant. So the warrant should exist.
Another possibility is that the eavesdropping was done by a foreign intelligence service (ie. the British). The Christopher Steele situation suggests that the UK government was involved and was working in collaboration with the Obama administration.
Speaking of Comey. Where is he? We’re now on Day 3 since NYT quoted their ‘anonymous officials’ claiming Comey told the DOJ to say that Obama didn’t order the wiretaps.
You would think by now, Comey would have wanted to clarify.
Gowdy has been a great disappointment. I had really high hopes for him.
From what I’be read, when the government is doing an intercept and they end up tapping an American citizen, they are to bend over backwards to minimize contact with the citizen and make sure he is protected.
Yea, me too. Gowdy says all the right things when it doesn`t matter, but when it comes time to step up and actually make a difference, you can be sure he`ll be far away from the front lines.
Gowdy is for open borders...which means some global entity owns him.
I have always thought the Flynn was there intentionally to draw this story out. He was on a mission
