Threats Against Trump Made by John Brennan and Samantha Power Must Be Investigated
Breitbart ^ | 18 Mar 2018 | John Nolte

Posted on 03/18/2018 9:17:31 AM PDT by Cheerio

Two ominous tweets, one written by former CIA Director John Brennan, the other by former United Nations Ambassador Samantha Power, openly threaten a sitting president — President Trump. This must be investigated.

Both of these tweets raise enormous questions, not only about what is meant by these threats, but what kind of inside information these former Obama officials might be receiving from unauthorized sources.

Friday night, after the long overdue firing of Andrew McCabe, the disgraced former acting FBI director, the president tweeted to the American people that McCabe’s termination (and possible loss of pension) marks a “great day for the hard working men and women of the FBI – A great day for Democracy.”

Trump added that “James Comey … made McCabe look like a choirboy. He knew all about the lies and corruption going on at the highest levels of the FBI!”

James Comey is disgraced former head of the FBI fired by Trump last year.

Trump’s criticism of Comey is not speculation. We now know that Comey leaked internal memos about his alleged conversations with Trump to the media through a surrogate, an act that many believe violated FBI rules, possibly even rules surrounding classified information. Moreover, Comey’s greasy fingerprints appear to be all over the discredited Russian dossier and the FISA warrants obtained using the dossier to spy on surrogates of the Trump campaign.

Why? It's not like anything will come of it.

What we have now is an opposition party that has morphed into an open insurgency that feels (correctly, in my opinion) that it can operate with impunity because the leaders are too big to jail.

So far, they've been proven correct. We know that the Democrats have a tendency to overreact and overplay their hand. The question is, where is the line between opposition, sedition, insurgency, and treason?

In the spirit of contemporary sexual equality, they should share the same cell at Gitmo.

And then the question is, who would be willing to do anything about it? Recent history suggests that Republicans fear name-calling more than the toppling of a government by the losers of an election.

My take is this: statements of this kind, and also those of James Comey, are meant to bring riveting attention to themselves. I believe they are putting a marker down so that they may later plead that they were persecuted unfairly as a result of what they previously said. In short, they are defensive measures made by people fearing imminent arrest.

Brennan has always been at the top of my evil doers list. If anyone knows how to eliminate someone, it’s him.

I still can’t figure out why Brennan and Powers aren’t in prison. White privilege?

“The question is, where is the line between opposition, sedition, insurgency, and treason?”

The line between opposition and sedition/treason is in the rear view. Unfortunately we have the likes of Ryan, McConnell, Sessions and Wray is positions of leadership. Not likely anything will be done unless there are further personnel changes.

Then gain, if Dems control the house ater the mid-terms then the administration will have a different battle on their hands.

BREAKING: 9/11 - All 19 Islamic terrorist high-jackers got their visas stamped before they came to America at the CIA station in Jeda. And who was in charge? Who overrode everyone else’s concerns and cautions and ordered those visas stamped?? “Disgraced Demagogue” John Brennan

Samantha Power was unmasking Trump associates at the rate of one a day for the last couple of years she was UN ambassador.

He has been the guy executing the plans of the Deep State for decades.

The true extent of his evil is barely fathomable.

If Brennan has guns take them away. The FBI doesn’t need a crazy person like Brennan armed. I’m pro guns but this guy is unstable.

Investigated? They need to be charged. If one of us said and did what these guys did and are going, we would be in jail so fast our head would spin.

This is especially true for those fearing military tribunals, as if they will soon say, "I am a political prisoner because I dared to cross dictator Trump. Look, he sent me to a military tribunal and denied me true due process!"
