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.”

It would never occur to Mark Thompson that if criticizing the FBI and law enforcement is a “high crime and misdemeanor” criticizing the President is treasonous and subject to a firing squad.

So to catch the FB”I” in sedition or an attempt
to take out the ELECTED PRESIDENT
-—according to he Mockingbird-MSNBC—
makes the observer or reporter guilty?

No wonder both MSNBC and some at the FBI think
they can get away with anything.

The left is trying to get a jump on wielding the “S” word (i.e. sedition) because they know what’s headed their way shortly. They’re preparing to gaslight people with regards to words like sedition and treason so that when they’re accused of it, the LIV’s will have already been conditioned to view sedition and treason as nothing more than criticizing government. It’s their last desperate hope, and I don’t think it’s going to be enough this time.

Interesting you mention that.

All those people were the "anti-establishment" types in the 1960s. Now, many of those same people who later gained power in government, are today entrenched in government and they're the biggest pro-establishment, big government people ever.

If that’s true, criticizing the President is worse.
