MSNBC Guest: Criticizing FBI Is A ‘High Crime’
The Daily Caller ^ | 26 Feb 2018 | AMBER ATHEY

Posted on 02/26/2018 3:15:55 PM PST by mandaladon

MSNBC guest and Sirius XM radio host Mark Thompson said on Monday that he believes criticizing the FBI and law enforcement is a “high crime and misdemeanor.”

During a discussion about the Nunes memo and the subsequent Democratic response on MSNBC, Thompson said he had “never seen anything” like the criticisms of the FBI and law enforcement from Republicans.

“And the other thing, just to draw together, this whole thing with the NRA. The NRA and Trump are attacking local law enforcement. The White House is attacking the FBI,” Thompson said. “We’ve never seen anything like this coming from Republicans.”

According to Thompson, such attacks could be considered “seditious.”

“And as I’ve said on your show before, to me that’s seditious, which in and of itself is a high crime and misdemeanor,” he claimed. “If I were Mueller, I would go and pick him up today.”

I guess MSNBC should be prosecuted for high crimes then: "If the activists who broke the law by burgling the FBI were justified because they exposed much larger campaign of lawbreaking by the government, then wasn’t Snowden also justified in exposing the nature of NSA surveillance, given that government officials had deliberately tried to mislead the public about the agency’s activities?": Activists who uncovered FBI spy program come forward (MSNBC 01/07/2014)

No, beyond scary. Democrats want an all powerful police state.

Brave guy to be so willing to expose his ignorance.

He is too ignorant, to be aware of the fact, that he is exposing his ignorance. 😀

MSNBC Guest: Criticizing FBI Is A ‘High Crime’

Every time I think the imbeciles couldn't be dumber and more transparent, they prove me wrong.
This morning, CBS must have got the memo.

Both the idiot talking heads and the 'guests' were tag teaming idiocies, like pilots can't be appointed to the FAA because they don't know anything about it, and it would be like asking a caddy to rewrite the rules of golf.
WTF??

I swear, there must a "stupid" school out there, somewhere.

This one is too dumb to believe...

MSNBC Guest: Criticizing FBI Is A ‘High Crime’

Let me think...
Where in the Constitution do those words appear?
Let me think... I'll get it, give me a minute...

How many MSNBC viewers believed it? That’s the bigger problem.

I think some numbnutz needs to find a grasp of the meaning of the word 'sedition...'
Just a wild guess on my part.

Dick Gregory criticized the FBI. Hoover conspired with the Mafia for the Mafia to assassinate Gregory.
That`s the kind of SOB POS Hoover was.

Headline-Washington Post:

“J. Edgar Hoover saw Dick Gregory as a threat. So he schemed to have the Mafia ‘neutralize’ the comic.”

How can something be a ‘high crime and a misdemeanor’ at the same time?

Quote something out of 18th Century English... without having a clue as to why.

Dumbsh it!!

This guy throws around terms like “High Crimes & Misdemeanors” and “Sedition” without any understanding of what they mean and how they would apply. Democrats did a whole lot of complaining about the FBI and CIA during the Watergate era, so I’d be careful about such blanket statements.

Democrats displaying further proof that they hate the first amendment as much as they do the second amendment.

“MSNBC Guest: Criticizing FBI Is A ‘High Crime’ “

Spoken like a true goosestepping Nazi.

The only thing standing between the pig Thompson and his imminent demise is the conservative respect for the rule of law. But we don’t know how much longer that barrier will hold. In the meantime, ESAD, Thompson.

“Communist Goal 35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.”

That was the communist goal back in the 1950s.

In 2018, the FBI is the commies.

We have never seen a FBI under Communist leadership before Clinton, Bush and Obama.

The silly SOB needs to be pulled over by several unmarked black cars, pulled out and pistol whipped by some FBI agents -- and then he'd better shut his mouth about what happened, or else. Thanks mandaladon.
