RAND PAUL: THE ONLY PERSON WE KNOW COLLUDED WITH THE RUSSIANS IS HILLARY CLINTON
The Daily Caller ^ | 2:26 PM 07/18/2018 | Benny Johnson | Reporter At Large

Posted on 07/18/2018 3:05:20 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) says the only person whom he and others “actually know colluded with the Russians” is former Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Rand was on Fox News Wednesday morning clarifying his stance on Russia’s election meddling and the intelligence community.

President Trump faced broad outrage over comments he made during the Helsinki, Finland, summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin Monday. Trump was criticized for not being more forceful with the Russian leader and for not backing up U.S. intelligence findings of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Trump clarified his comments in a short statement at the White House on Tuesday.

When asked to explain the controversy, Rand said that the president thinks the Muller investigation is “tainted” by partisan Democrats that also colluded with Russia.

“The president sees the Mueller investigation. He sees all these accusations from partisan Democrats, Hillary Clinton, saying ‘Oh, he colluded with the Russians,” Rand said. “The only people who we actually know colluded with the Russians were Hillary Clinton who paid a British agent who paid Russians for information for the dossier.”

Rand was referring to the infamous unverified Steele dossier compiled by Fusion GPS and paid for by the Clinton campaign.

“[Trump] feels like the intelligence community cooked up a political and partisan investigation,” Rand continued, “but also, part of the Mueller investigation is something that should have investigated, and that is: Who hacked into Hillary Clinton’s emails?”

Rand concluded, “There is part of the Mueller investigation that is legitimate and part of it that is a partisan attack on the president.”

it’s the point Rand Paul made...not the man.

why isn’t Mueller going after Clinton/DNC/Steele/GPS Fusion/Russian collusion etc?

as for the intel agencies - Clapper/Brennan/Comey -

by their own extraordinarily partisan, anti-Trump words - why aren’t they being investigated?

by whom? that is the question.

It never fails. One person, who has repeatedly been a roadblock on several fronts, makes a quasi-positive remark, and many Freepers want to start printing campaign signs.

These shall be known as “knee-jerk” voters.

The laying of one brick, does not make a person a “bricklayer”.

Rand is a stick in the mud - and THAT is a good thing. IMHO, anyways. He is not going to sign onto something just because someone says he should. He will look at it carefully and make informed decisions.

Sad that his attacker got a slap on the wrist.

I think Rand is OK.

It’s hard for some to trust The President.

I thought it kind of wild myself to pull that lever.

I did and am damn proud I did. This President is the real deal, and the left is falling apart.

As Martha would say, “it’s a good thing”.

Rand Paul brings negativity on himself for being so fickle in his support of the President.

When he does support President Trump he does so alone and that deserves respect.

Good to be with Putin if you are a democrat.

The world is ending if Trump is with Putin!

“...Where is Sessions sleep Walking today...”
Who is this “sessions” that you speak of???
Are you talking about that tiny, Keebler Elf-looking fella that sleeps under Mueller’s desk? That’s Mueller’s footrest. Mueller takes his shoes off and uses him for a foot rest. Once in awhile, he’ll even rub his belly with his foot just to hear him giggle.
Surely, you’re not talking about THAT guy....LOL

Bertrand Daily Report The War For Our Mind & Soul Continues

Subject: Appears FBI Strzok Might Be a Foreign Muslim Plant

Ed Note:

The take-down and destruction of America is a coordinated effort by the Muslim Brotherhood, career politicians, intelligence heads....with a Marxist ideology.

Within the last 10 hours, we are now learning who disgraced FBI Agent Peter Strzok actually is and his connection to FBI Communist John Brennan and Obama’s Iranian “pay-off.”

“Strzok was the main operative in “Operation Crossfire Hurricane,” a Deep State plot to run legal attacks on President Trump’s team.”

“Now we know that Strzok was really a CIA agent. He only held a ceremonial title in the Bureau, but was really operating under the leadership of the CIA, including Obama’s vindictive CIA director John Brennan.”
https://bigleaguepolitics.com/bombshell-peter-strzok-was-cia-and-fbi-at-the-same-time/

intellihub reports: “A sheep-dipped Peter Strzok has been covertly operating as the Section Chief of the Central Intelligence Agency’s Counterespionage Group during his secret 24 year tenure with the agency while masquerading as Deputy Assistant Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Counterintelligence Division where he was in charge of investigating Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal email server along with the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.

But that's not all.....

Strzok grew-up in Iran and Saudi Arabia and was present in Iran during the 1979 Iranian Revolution. His father Strzok Sr. was supportive of the radical Muslim over-throw of Iran.

Well of course, Obama could swing a deal with Iran and send tons of cash aboard three cargo jets to Iran and get away with it while probably getting a kick-back (referral fee?). Both Strzok and Brennan approved....

The scam also involves alleged European Union heads of state, according to an Iranian official threatening to reveal all...but in the meanwhile, the guilty on both sides of the political aisle are going after Trump and his meeting with Putin. It's their desperate attempt to keep Trump “at-bay” and divert attention away from Strzok.

It's time for Trump's DoJ to take a hard look at all financial records of Obama, Hillary, Brennan and Strzok.

-—Dave Bertrand

WHOA: Disgraced FBI Official Peter Strzok Grew Up In Iran & His Father Supported The 1979 Iranian Revolution

The Deep State rabbit hole just got a little deeper. Did you know anti-Trump FBI official Peter Strzok grew up in Iran and Saudi Arabia? Strzok’s father, Peter Strzok Sr. was in Iran when Muslim hardliners stormed the U.S. embassy, took hostages, and overthrew the U.S. friendly government. Since that time Iran has been a “death to America” fixture in the Middle East. Strzok Sr. was supportive of the Iranian revolution. Fast forward several decades later and you want to know who headed the Obama-era outreach to Iran where hundreds of millions of dollars were given to the radical Islamic regime and a nuclear green light granted? None other than Peter Strzok.

What the hell is going on here?

EXPOSED: Peter Strzok Grew Up In Iran, Worked As Obama and Brennan’s Envoy To Iranian Regime

…Peter Strzok was born in the late 1960’s – he attended the American School in Iran up until 1978 when it closed down and then he attended the American School in Saudi Arabia. He supposedly attended a Catholic School, St. John’s Prep in Minneapolis (the school refused to confirm or deny attendance) and then completed a Bachelors at Georgetown and some form of graduate degree after that.
Did you know that Peter Strzok II (Strzok’s father) and Hillary Clinton have a lot in common? It turns out after advocating for Khomeni in Iran and then working in Saudi Arabia to calm the waters of an Iranian government (appeasing them with anti-Semitic rhetoric), Strzok’s father Strzok II also dabbled in “charity work.” Strzok’s father was involved in so-called charity work in Haiti but also helped dismantle and reassemble Upper Volta..now known as Burkina Faso.

…The Clinton Foundation and The Catholic Relief Services (CRS) seem to work in tangent. Coincidence? Peter Strzok Sr. was actually the director of CRS in Haiti. If we look into CRS financials they seem to overlap and feed into Clinton Global initiatives and balance sheets.

…Peter Strzok III is the key Middle Eastern Intel operative for the Iranian airline Mahan Air’s purchase of United States government planes during the Obama administration from 2011 to 2013 (when Iran sanctions were in place). He handled the Iranian relations from start to finish.

…One thing that is constant in modern history over the last five decades with anything involving Iran: There is a Peter Paul Strzok involved.

I wish Rand Paul hadn’t blown up his campaign by going negative about President Trump, for no logical reason. He would’ve been just fine as VP choice.
