Trump is just returning enemy fire from the pyscho mediots, who attack him 24/7.

They are not used to our side defending themselves when attacked.

We need to start asking, openly and publicly and frequently:

How much longer will this expensive and obstructionist "investigation" be allowed to continue without producing anything close to proof of a criminal act committed by the President? It has already been 18 months (since they were clearly recording him months before the NOV 2016 election), and likely tens of millions of dollars. When does it end????

How much is Rosenweasel paying Weasel Mueller per hour?

[Reverend Wright]

What a joke. Various Deep State “impeccables” endorse the “integrity” of Baker and McCabe.

When the text on the “insurance policy” meeting in “Andy’s office” became public, he was a goner.

The best construction they could put on it was McCabe endorsing FBI investigation decisions based on campaign polls and which candidate they wanted to win.

What’s not good is that Wray kept him there for months knowing all about that.

Though the move was not unexpected, national-security experts and former intelligence officials are questioning its timing and whether it was a politically-motivated decision in response to pressure from President Donald Trump and his allies.

Could or would it occur to those former intelligence officials that the decision was based on a just cause?

Would it occur to them that the Trump administration has bent over backwards to keep FBI officials with questionable loyalty?

Would it occur to those former intelligence officials that the decision was based on evidence of Hatch Act violations? Or, are the former intelligence officials themselves supporters of the Obama regime?

The FBI has been leaning more and more to the left since the Clinton administration.

I think that the swamp and deep state don't understand Rump. He is a disruptor and loves that roe. If someone doesn't produce Trump will publicly fire them. This is counter to anything the swamp or deep state has ever experienced. They can't understand ow this has happened to them.

#45 maybe they left him there to watch him and who he conspired with.

[databoss]

Written like it’s not against the law to conspire to overthrow the duly elected POTUS, delusional.

[Reverend Wright]

“maybe they left him there to watch him and who he conspired with.”

I hope so. But there is a big problem when McCabe is still in the Asst Directors office and has access to a lot of info.

To show just how ridiculous this was. The OIG discovered the Strzok / Page texts about Trump, Clinton, the insurance policy meeting, Andy’s office in July 2017...

...and the OIG reported his findings to Mueller and ...Acting Director Andrew McCabe !

[ROCKLOBSTER]

The sudden reassignment of the FBI's top lawyer, James Baker, last week was not necessarily unexpected.

And why the hell, pray tell, not?

[NonValueAdded]

I’d day they were projecting. Or should we call them unindicted co-conspirators?

[VRWCarea51]

The IG reports to Congress and Justice. So if McCabe was notified IMHO they were watching his actions to see how he responded based on the “insurance” email that referred to the conversation in “Andy’s” office.
