The FBI is a criminal formation. It’s main purpose is to suppress political opponents. This has always been it’s main purpose. It was formed by a Wilson era progressive homosexual who used information based blackmail to amass power. He left his homosexual mentality imprint on the agency. It has engaged in almost constant illegal activity when it deems it necessary and it cannot realistically be reformed. It must be broken up and turned over to the states.

It should be disbanded.

Wray feels very free to go out in public and defy the words of his direct supervisor. He DOES know that the AG is over him and the FBI is not independent.

I am convinced that was the real reason for the Page FISA warrants after the election. They were hoping that Trump would call Page and try to influence him.

According to Page, he never met Trump. Page came in handy because he worked in Russia for several years at Merrill Lynch and made several trips to Russia including the summer 2016 trip to give a speech which is on YouTube. We know from Strzok/Page texts they were in a big hurry to get the Carter Page FISA request pushed through. Maybe we will have an answer soon as to why.

Papadopoulos was perplexed, but never quite figured it out until it was nearly too late...............…

Papa said last evening he believes he was targeted before even being with Trump. He believes it started when he supported Ben Carson. He added, in that case he surmises the gov was targeting every republican candidate and would not be surprised to find there were others not yet identified.

Yep, saw that, maybe intelligence thought he would be an easy mark for some reason.

God will protect the USA until it’s time for him not to. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

And is it not freeing to believe, to the core of your being, that this life is temporary and you are about to board the plane to a better place? I wake up every day with that attitude.

Page is the most unimpressive person on the national stage. Did you see him on Hannity last night? Guy can’t even put a coherent thought together. He supposedly has a PhD.

IMHO he isn’t smart enough to be a plant/spy.

He had the same problem as Flynn. He initially talked to the FBI without a lawyer. He likely thought he was just doing his civic duty and ends up getting with process crimes.

I’ve seen him several times and had the same impression as you at first. However I have since concluded that his hesitancy on camera is more that he’s evasive than that he’s stupid. He’s trying to keep his cover despite all the sheet that has been dumped on him. Look at his background. Grad of Annapolis, Naval officer, speaks fluent Russian, Georgetown Masters degree, NYU MBA, PhD from the university of London. He’s not dumb. If you worked for the CIA, you might want to feign stupidity though.

It seems very odd that he would get back to the US from Moscow and immediately get embroiled in a counterintelligence operation. Then just when Brennan needs someone inside the Trump campaign he shows up inside the Trump campaign and is once again embroiled in a counter intelligence investigation.

The fact that Trump never met him doesn’t mean they weren’t hoping Trump or someone else would call him in an attempt to obstruct justice though. The call never came but they were ready for it if it had.

According to Solomon they pushed for the FISA warrant because they knew the evidence was weak and it would not be approved without the push. I suspect it was more because they were trying to get something before the election. And also possibly because they were afraid the operation would be shut down after the election.

Another possibility is that Strzok did not know Page was a plant but the higher ups did. Maybe they were not keen on tapping their own agent but ultimately decided to do it.

You might be right. The 2 hop rule would allow them spy on practically anybody in the Trump orbit. They didn’t give a flying F about Carter Page.

They knew they needed to stop Trump in June of 2015. Any of the others they could have beaten easily.

Graham, Rubio and Bush especially. They had hours of recorded phone conversations to blackmail them with. Trump refused to say ANYTHING over the phone (or email/texts) for his entire life, heeding his father's good advice.

I think they also monitored Ted Cruz ... who else but deep state had pictures and knowledge of said pictures, of Ted’s dad that got published in the National Enquirer?
