What do you mean “nothing else” ?
What about BBQ and square dancing contest afterwards ?
Asinine. By that logic Communist or Islamist infiltrators would think their ideology "was best for the U.S."
They intended to overthrow our government from within - doesn't matter if they had happy-little-thoughts while they were committing evil.
Haha, they certainly deserve it.
“So the T word doesn’t fit, and it’s loaded with implications that can backfire”
I fully understand your point, but I wholeheartedly disagree.
Who is to say if “Treason” fits or not? That’s not what’s important right now.
Trump is engaged in all out war now, not in an exercise in front of some future court.
Hit them now, hit them hard. Leave the legal semantics to the distant future.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see justice served and a just nation restored. But through God’s word we already know how it plays out. It’s only going to get much, much worse until the Day of the Lord is upon the planted, and then Jesus will rule for 1,000 years with perfect justice and integrity. What’s astounding is the He will have to do it with an iron rod. What’s even more astounding is that after 1,000 years Satan will be let loose again for a short while and the number of people that rebel with him will be like the sands of the sea. Then final judgement and the eternal like of fire for Satan and all who rejected Christ, and finally a new Heaven and Earth for eternity.
We’re just now beginning to see the start of all this.
Now that we have a real CIA director, we need not ask that question. As in shhhhhh
Kenya needs bullshitters
If we leave them to rot on the noose, animal rights advocates will complain we are poisoning the vultures and buzzards. ;)

What does this have to do with this thread? Why don’t you go start a vanity asking for car help, instead of posting on a thread about Trump/DeepState spying?
In the first place, what they are talking about happened to a Republican presidential candidate and not a president. And even if it had Russia is, to the best of my knowledge, not been designated an enemy. We are not at war with them and the President seems determined to maintain a good relationship with Putin.
What is alleged to have happened may well be criminal. It isn't treason.
Internationally putting Barry O, and Hillary would have a bad image. But the rest? Leavenworth awaits all going up to Loretta Lynch. Maybe a new prison in Alaska near a polar bear refuge. Natural prison guards. But the top two would be quietly told keep quiet or we may not care what the world thinks.
Did Twitter suspend Trump’s account yet?
“I think its sedition, rather than treason.”
Typically, we’d all agree but President Trump knows something. My guess is that these illegal operations were conducted in league with other nations.
So, this would very well fall in line under treason.
Let’s wait and see. :)
Reminds me of a Pollack joke. The Poles went to war against the Romanians, and they kept lobbing grenades at the Romanians, who kept taking the pins out of the grenades and lobbing them back at the Poles.
If I were a Dem, I’d say, “Donald Trump is using inflammatory rhetoric to incite violence, which has already occurred in Charlotsville, and Pittsburgh, etc. Treason? Treason to question his ties with Russia? Treason to investigate? He was not charged, but wherever there’s smoke there’s fire. This shows contempt for the Rule of Law (organ chord). This is totalitarian, just as calling news organizations enemies of the people is totalitarian. He is a threat to democracy (organ chord). Donald Trump is a menace who must be stopped, before he holds a show trial headed by his hand-picked attorney general, the lackey Mr. Barr!” and sends such revered figures as Comey and Brennan to the big house, or even hangs them! Why, there’s even talk of rotary fan guillotines with five head holes among his wild-eyed acolytes.
It’s not effective ammo, because the Dems can pull the pin out and throw it back immediately just by pointing to the constitutional definition of Treason.
Only if you want to declare those countries to be our enemies. "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason ..."
So, in the end, the country will know what happened but the illegality will look like slippery jello. On the fringe charges of leaking and handling-of-some-sort could ensnare Comey, but a DC jury will be hung on conviction.
I don't see a massive amount of justice coming forth.... just exposure of truth, which the left will not care about and we will all say, "Here we go again."
At least we will have public truth even if the media ignores it.
I hear ya, but...if their intelligence communities are participating on an official basis to overthrow our elected government...
I admit that their intelligence agencies might well have been acting on their own, not like our OWN damned intelligence agencies, which almost CERTAINLY had the support of the people at the top in the White House.
How about if we simply state that our people were working with people who might be our enemies?
I am being rhetorical...I understand your point!
He is preparing the public for what is coming.
