Democrats, Media, Intel Folks Fall Into ‘No Evidence’ Column On Trump Campaign Collusion With Russia
Breitbart ^ | 5-20-2017 | Penny Starr

Posted on 05/20/2017 4:51:22 AM PDT by blam

Here’s a list of some of those who fall into the “no evidence” column:

•Sen. Diane Feinstein (D-CA)

“The last time we spoke, Senator, I asked you if you had actually seen evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russians, and you said to me — and I’m quoting you now — you said, ‘not at this time.’ Has anything changed since we spoke last?” asked CNN’s Wolf Blitzer

“Well, not—no, it hasn’t,” Feinstein said.

“But I just want to be precise, Senator. In all of the—you’ve had access from the intelligence committee, from the Judiciary committee, all of the access you’ve had to very sensitive information, so far you’ve not seen any evidence of collusion, is that right?” Blitzer pressed.

“Well, evidence that would establish that there’s collusion. There are all kinds of rumors around. There are newspaper stories, but that’s not necessarily evidence,” Feinstein admitted.

• Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA)

“But just to be clear, there has been no actual evidence yet,” Sam Stein of the Huffington Post asked.

“No, it has not been,” Waters said. •Former CIA Director John Brennan

“What I have found appalling is the number of leaks that have taken place over the last several months,” Brennan said at the SALT conference in Las Vegas, the annual gathering of hedge-fund managers and other financiers. “This needs to be stopped.”

“The damage that was done is what was leaked in the aftermath, what was put in the media. The real damage to national security is the leaks,” Brennan said.

Brennan said. “These individuals who still stay within the government and are leaking this stuff to the press need to be brought to task.”

Our Democrat enemies and the media have done more damage to themselves than to Trump.

They cannot be allowed to get by with it.. President Trump needs to call them out by name.

How many months have the best intel investigators on the globe been digging into this? The FBI, and particularly NSA, can track just about any telecommunication in the US. If something sinister and illegal was going on, our intel agencies had every reason to expose it quickly.....before the "security threat" was inaugurated. Significantly, our intel agencies didn’t expose a Trump/Russian connection:

<><> before Election Day,

<><> they didn’t expose it before the Electoral College voted,

<><> they didn’t expose it before Inauguration Day,

<><> and they still haven't exposed it.

But, they got all they hoped for in a ‘Special Persecutor” to harass Trump for the rest of his term.

They shout “Russia” and we waste time trying to refute something that isn’t true and was never true. Which means they continue to set the talking points of the day.

And distract from the fact that there are people in bed with Russia and their name is Clinton. You can give the special prosecutor the most powerful microscope in the world, and if he isn’t allowed to look at the Clintons, he is never going to find anything.

How did the Russia/collusion boondoggle get started?

Humiliated Hillary had to find a reason why she lost 2016.....so they came up with the Russians. At the time Hillary said, "They don't like me."

Hillary musta horse-whipped her 2016 campaign chair, John Podesta, into action. Podesta came charging out of the gate like Greased Lightning, galloping at breakneck speed, sweating it out, desperate to make Hillary look like a "victim."

Here's the very first evidence of the Democrat/Russian connection......about a month after Hillary lost.

=================================================

John Podesta Op-Ed: Washington Post post-election op-ed / FR POSTED by by ColdOne

PODESTA: The more we learn about the Russian plot to sabotage Hillary Clinton’s campaign and elect Donald Trump, and the failure of the FBI to adequately respond, the more shocking it gets. The former acting director of the CIA has called the Russian cyberattack “the political equivalent of 9/11.” Just as after the real 9/11, we need a robust, independent investigation into what went wrong inside the government and how to better protect our country in the future.

As the former chair of the Clinton campaign and a direct target of Russian hacking, I understand just how serious this is. So I was surprised to read in the New York Times that when the FBI discovered the Russian attack in September 2015, it failed to (Excerpt) Read more of Podesta at washingtonpost.com ...

Democrats then latched onto the Russian meme and ran with it. To the floundering loser Dems, it's their lifesaver.

It is time to call a spade a spade!

What we are experiencing in America today is a left wing attempted coup. All the ear marks are evident, Led by Obama and Clintons, the hard-core democrats and media have organized well and are conspiring to over throw the government.

Don’t call it anything else. It is what it is. The American people need to stand up and say “NO”!

Democrat doing a magnificent job destroying themselves. My insiders tell me their internal polling shows overwhelming objection of the American voter for any movement toward impeachment of POTUS, Trump!!!

Folks have you noticed except for the lunatic failures of the Congressional Black Caucus, like Maxine Waters, calling for the DJT impeachment...the Democrat party, on the impeachment quest has gone mostly silent!!!

Fact is: The entire low life, hate America, Democrat Party must be politically destroyed by the American voters...they are all, 100% of them, traitors to our people and country!!!

I agree with everything up to this: “The American people need to stand up and say “NO”!”

If taken to conclusion, the american people need to stand up with arms. This is nothing more than a process revolution in the making. No crime or high misdomeanor, so they are inventing one. The goby was the take out of Scooter Libby. Bigger target this time but same plan: invent a misdeed, blow it up out of proportion, look around for targets, call them before a grand jury or other panel, ask many questions, find a mistaken answer to some inane one and take them out.

I am waiting for part of the charge against Trump to be when he said at one of his rallies: keep those wiki leaks items coming. They will say that was evidence with Russian collusion.

This worse than I have seen in any election as far back as 1960. It helps their cause that the three major areas of political news: California, DC and NY were carried by the beast handily. In the rest of US where the real people live, not so much but they have little visibility in the national political media.

As Sir Limbaugh reminds his listeners perpetually, when a Republican’s head is on the chopping block, that it is never the nature of the evidence, but the seriousness of the charge, that matters.

The entire Left needs to be put on record on whether there is evidence supporting the Trump/Russia conspiracy theory.

Make them take off their tinfoil hats before they answer.
