Nope, just listening to the Russian Ambassador when Flynn repeatedly called during the campaign Joel Send a noteboard - 03/02/2018 04:11:27 AM

It says little of Flynn that it never occurred to him that US intelligence just MIGHT be tapping the Russian Ambassadors phone; even Kushner had enough snap to realize he needed to setup a "back channel" to Moscow off the coast of Africa, and he was just another Wall St. junk bond king, not a general officer in the US military who had spent most of his career planning against the possibility of total war against Russia.

Giving the DOJ the power to tap the phone of the people who would be speaking to their bosses political rival during an election should have required extraordinary circumstance which does not seem to be the case here. The judge needs to answer some pointed questions.

Only if that happened, which it never did. I guarantee that if anyone on the Clinton campaign had called the Russian Ambassador during the campaign and discussed ending policies Russia disliked, they would, er, what was the Convention chant? "Lock her up, lock her up, lock her up...." I remember, because Flynn actually LED that chant at one point.

Just reading the memo is indeed the best approach, I just did too. Legolas - 02/02/2018 08:20:01 PM 941 Views
I find it hard to believe the Obama appointees in the DoJ did not know where the dossier came from *NM* AgentApple - 02/02/2018 09:17:06 PM 491 Views
