The money quote: "“There is nothing more dangerous to the welfare of our republic than operatives from three-letter agencies taking sides for ideological or personal reasons and then using the vast resources at their disposal to damage and delegitimize those they oppose.”

As someone said, Watergate is jaywalking compared to Obamagate.

It may be bigger than Watergate, but one thing distinguishes them apart: the media won’t cover it.

The red line is treason, and Demonicrats, especially the Swamp Rats, have swarmed way over it.

Barack Obama was never eligible to be President and BOTH parties knew it.
Not one of our elected or appointed stood up for the Constitution.
It is so much worse than most people think.

Here's the really scary part: the Establishment Media may be part of the scandal, too. This is the type of scandal that could end a lot of prominent bastions of journalism.

Obama blew by Watergate years ago.

Nixon only talked about using the IRS to go after his enemies. The IRS Commissioner resigned. obama’s IRS was leading the charge on political attacks.

Nixon had a small secret group of “plumbers” trying to gather secrets on the opposition campaign. Obama had the entire deep state, and 17 corrupted intelligence agencies listing to Trump and putting spies in his campaign.

Nixon hid tape recordings of himself, the DNC hid tens of thousands of emails of Hillary Clinton and everyone around her.

It doesn’t matter one lick if they embedded a spy or not. The evidence of the entire operation to get Trump on fabricated, phony evidence; the methods used to falsely obtain that bogus evidence; the orchestration between the AG and heads of FBI and CIA. That alone should be enough to make them all swing.

The “spy” part is frosting on the cake.

Using the IRS to stifle political opponents is also bigger than watergate.

It's now clear that Watergate was 5% crime and 95% politics, the MSM and the Democrats teaming up to take out a President they didn't like.

The proof was there back during Reagan and Clinton, but now there's no denying it.

If a George W. Bush had done to Hillary what Obama/Hillary did to PDJT, the uproar would have been sufficient to wake the dead and pull the moon out of its orbit.

The dishonest press effectively turned the Watergate molehill into a mountain.

The even more dishonest press... Can they even be called “press?” They are the demonRat propaganda association, are doing everything they can to keep from reporting on the previous administration using not just US but international intelligence agencies (I thought it was illegal for the CIA to operate in the USA,) to surveil and politically attack an opposition political campaign.

Obama, Clinton, and the rest of the gang are far worse than the 1970s media ever claimed the Nixon administration was.

FBI scandal bigger than Watergate? -- Could be, and the dishonest press...
Without a shadow of a doubt. Watergate was Amateur City, with a handful of players and they all went to jail and a president resigned in disgrace.

This Scandal has a cast of dozens or perhaps hundreds of "major players, and hundreds, if not thousands of minor players, and yet not a single one has been indicted, tried or seen the inside of a jail!. That horse is beyond dead.
Why even ask such stupid questions?

It;s only a matter of time; not if, but when.
When the day of reckoning arrives it will not be pretty.
What will the elected and appointed criminals, their enablers and the parasite subcultures gonna do against a 10-million pist off man march?

“COULD be”???

How about, “IS” x1000?

Has anyone compiled a chart comparing the two?
