“Carter W. Page worked for ultra liberal NY Senator Patrick Moynihan”

Carter Page was most likely a DEEP STATE plant in the Trump campaign.....

Totally agree.

I’ve been saying The Swamp can’t stand Trump to upset their Trillion Dollar Per Year trough spigot.

Lots of people can die over trillions of dollars.

“It’s beginning to appear that Page, a former paid FBI informant, was thrown under the bus by DOJ and the FBI for the express purpose of opening the net after he joined the Trump campaign, albeit temporarily; it would have been the most expeditious route into the Trump campaign at the time.”

Agree. My earlier “mole” statement was brief and overly broad, since I was posting from a Denny’s on a phone. Whether or not Page knew he was the guy who would open the door to a wiretap, it worked regardless. Maybe Page knew, maybe he didn’t know. But the FBI / Justice / 0bama cabal sure knew where to point him and use him.

Page was the key to the door for a wiretap by 0bama of Trump for Clinton.

That's the truly frightening takeaway from this affair. These pinheads were in charge, and that was the best plan they could think of. Mitigating factors may have been the need to conceal from underlings - but that shows reliance on staff to come up with and implement decent plans.

Unfortunately, despite the impression we are given by Hollywood and the news media... government agencies at all levels are infested with idiots. I witnessed it first hand for decades in my former career. Unfortunately, basically all of our civil service organizations promote in a way that is not actually merit based. Varying types of mediocre individuals tend to rise to the top.

The best of them are aware that they are less intelligent than their underlings and can sometimes still run a decent organization. But even these people tend to be paranoid and suspicious of anyone who they sense is on to them. Major problems often arise when you have a mediocre individual who is some sort of ideologue who does not realize that they are an idiot. They can cause all sorts of issues.

As an example... the fire department I worked for had contracts to provide fire protection and emergency medical services for smaller jurisdictions outside of our city. A police officer from the smaller jurisdiction reported an apartment fire to our communications center. Just before my crew and I arrived at the location, the police officer reported back that he had extinguished the fire with extinguishers from the complex.

Because this was in an outlying area our communications center canceled everyone but us to avoid coverage issues from sending a large number of units out of the city. When we arrived my crew and I performed cleanup and searched for any remaining problems. I congratulated the officer for his actions which stopped what could have easily become a major conflagration.

I got a strange call on the radio from the Battalion Chief who was filling in that day. He told me not to let the police officer leave the scene before he arrived. Under normal circumstances one would assume that the chief wanted to congratulate the officer as I had done. Unfortunately, I knew from previous experience that this particular chief was a blithering idiot who was an affirmative action hire and promotion. He had actually been fired previously when he was still a lieutenant for purchasing crack cocaine on duty while his crew waited in the fire engine. He was then rehired a year or so later and quickly promoted through the ranks to battalion chief.

I suggested to the police officer that he should get the chief of his department to the scene as quickly as possible. When our battalion chief arrived he started yelling at the police officer and accusing him of canceling our units, which actually had been done by our own communications department. In the middle of this confrontation the police chief from the smaller jurisdiction showed up and the two chiefs got in a heated argument. Then a second black battalion chief who was working temporarily that day also showed up and the two “brothers” both started berating the police chief.

After my chiefs left the police chief wanted to know if his officer, or he or anyone else had done anything wrong. I assured him that on the contrary his officer deserved an award for his quick thinking and action and that he deserved an award for dealing courteously with two difficult overpaid individuals who had no clue about much of anything that had happened that day.

Unfortunately, since I was a leader on our hazmat team I also had the "pleasure" of working with people from the state, federal government, and the military. Strangely enough the military personnel I worked with were all incredibly competent and professional. The federal and state officials were a mixed bag with some of them very good and some completely useless. The leadership of the federal and state organizations often left you scratching your head.

It’s weird that Cox referred anyone to the Trump campaign since he refused to endorse Trump until 2 days AFTER he got the nomination

Carter Page has been making the rounds on TV lately. Every time I see him I have an uneasy sense about him. I’m not sure what he’s trying to accomplish with all these appearances or the role that he’s played in this ongoing Russia-Trump investigation drama. I just don’t have a good feeling about him. I hope I’m wrong.

I totally agree. He has a slimy vibe.

Like Hillary told her campaign staff.... if I lose we all hang.

All involved in the Obama administration including Obama, were all doing some bad illegal activites involving a lot of money via kickbacks and bribes and God knows what else, in my opinion. Probably a lot of liberal media personalities involved too. Why else would they act the way they do towards Trump. It's stone cold fear of being found out of their crimes. This, in my opinion, is why the hate for Trump is so vicious.

For a “poor innocent soul” who’s been set upon and “mistreated” by the FBI, he seems unusually smiling and upbeat in these interviews. But of course; if he’s actually an Obama mole, who was in on the scam, and probably paid handsomely for doing it, why WOULDN’T he be smiling?!

Exactly. It’s not that Trump won. It’s that now he will shine the light on all the nasty stuff they have been doing for years. He does not care who he stomps on because he is the first outsider we have had in modern times.

All levels of government suffer from Dunnings-Krueger because failure is not punished in any meaningful way and sometimes rewards it. The promotion of fools is probably intentional since it makes looting government coffers easier for the competent ones who remain in the system for that very reason

Private enterprise punishes failure with bankruptcy so fools get fired or kept at their actual level of competency.

The military is more competent because Dunnings-Krueger can result in real time death so there is serious bias against allowing self-important fools to rise in the ranks.

"Carter W. Page worked for ultra liberal NY Senator Patrick Moynihan"

I wouldn't call Moynihan ultra liberal. He was truly a moderate Dems back in the day when we had moderate dems. He's the one we have to thank for that famous quote "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts."

To further show he was not a liberal, here's another one of his quotes: "Somehow liberals have been unable to acquire from life what conservatives seem to be endowed with at birth; a healthy skepticism of the powers of government agencies to do good."

...and they made fun of President Trump for saying he was wiretapped. He was/is SO right about all the intrusions.

One of the biggest red flags in the background of Carter Page is that in the past decade he was serving as Director of the "Globalization and International Affairs" program for Bard College (note the prominence of promoting "Globalization" not exactly a pro-Trump theme!!). In case you don't know Bard, it is one of the most purely left-wing colleges in the USA, similar to Evergreen and Reed. This is not conclusive, but I have strong doubts that he could have been appointed or retained there unless he had the most reliable left-liberal bona fides. Here he is in Nov. 2008 giving a presentation to Bard people on how to get ahead in the new Obama administration:

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

Bard Globalization and International Affairs Program

Monday, November 24, 2008

Presidential Administration Transitions: Public Service during Periods of Change

Campus Center, Multipurpose Room 7:00 pm – 8:15 pm

Presidential Administration Transitions:

Public Service during Periods of Change

Bard Globalization and International Affairs (BGIA) Director Carter Page will discuss the internal dynamics of presidential transition teams during the change of administrations and the roles of individual participants in these processes.

The presentation will include a discussion of the opportunities that these changes offer for junior personnel within a new administration as well as steps BGIA is taking to adapt to the opportunities that the 2008 election has created for the next generation of foreign policy practitioners.

Monday, November 24, 7:00 p.m. Bertelsmann Campus Center MPR
