Nunez on Bartiromo: Clinton State Dept confidantes passed oppo research to FBI for investigation
FoxNews ^ | April 22, 2018 | Me

Did anyone else just watch Nunez on Bartiromos show? He was talking about how the FBIs Trump investigation got started. Apparently the evidence shows that Clinton associates Blumenthal and Shear gave opposition research on Trump to Clinton confidantes in the State Dept who then passed it onto the FBI to serve as information to begin an investigation.

Democrats are Democrats first.

Being an American is way down on their list.

No, they didn’t pass oppo research to the FBI. Oppo research would be true, and if it was that bad, it should be passed to FBI.

They passed, and FBI knowingly used, a phony document that someone typed up in an afternoon.

There is a second element: They supposedly paid $12 million for a phony document someone typed up in an afternoon. That smells unmistakably of money-laundering.

People keep buying what Slimey Blumenthal keeps selling. Pathetic.

I’m so glad that my tax payments go to pay Democrat bureaucrats who conduct illegal campaign business during work hours.

Messy business. Reaches outside DOJ/Horowitz. Nunes making noise about this is an opening shot in the plan to expose people in the State Department.

Class action lawsuit - Taxpayers of the USA vs Hillary Clinton, et al. For wasting our money on a witch hunt...

We found the witch. Seize her assets and lock her up.

Not conceal, obfuscation for deniability.

Where is McSlime in all of this? Didn’t McSlime send his aide to get a copy of the dossier and then didn’t McSlime, himself, take it to Comey?

I saw it. The whole thing with Papadopoulos starting the Russian investigation is unraveling. No counter intelligence was involved. Hillary friends leaking stuff to the State Department, who leaked to FBI, and so it was all based on nothing!

Nunes had already said they were going to investigate the State Department so this has been going on. Now he has witnesses and documentation. This is great timing. Ducks are lined up.

This needs to be repeated. I'm sick and tired of hearing the dossier described as "opposition research." Even Rush uses that term and when he does, I start screaming at the radio that there was NO RESEARCH involved in this pile of bovine excrement.

Yes, good point. Are some republican senators implicated?
This is the scandal of the century, and the senate is studiously avoiding it other than trying to protect Mueller.

This fact alone reveals the FBI to be either complicit in perpetrating the crime of using government resources to push opposition political research -or- it shows the FBI to be incompetent in their ability to determine if a document is real or faked.

Again, here is Trump, the POTUS, making a tweet from the sideline about how gosh darn it that Sessions guy just won’t do the right thing. The helpless bystander role he seems to have taken on is a mystery to me. He has limits yes but there is wide spectrum between scorched earth fire em all and doing nothing but tweets. IMHO

I would bet my last nickel that Several High Ranking Senators and Congress Critters, allopf whom are in the Leadership are Deeply Involved and probably helped plan the attempted coup.

This mess is like pranksters tipped over a full porta potty and the clean up guy,Sessions,is just standing there looking at it.

“Democrats are Democrats first.”

No country is immune to a subversive political party. We have it right in front of our noses.
