Quote:Comey’s construction of the investigation here is really the same as Baker’s. The investigation is not at its core an investigation of Trump campaign “coordination” with Russia, much less of Trump himself.

The shutdown is a distraction.
This is what the focus should be on. Scary thought? They have the transcript from Helsinki.
The FBI doesn’t let this leak unless they have the goods.
So, the "article" actually never backs its claim that the FBI began an investigation to determine if Trump was woking as a Russian agent. The other piece not only says Trump is NOT a Russian agent---but it goes on to to say that being a Russian "asset" might be reflected in helping to aide Russian interests---but presents nothing to indicate that Trump has even helped further any Russian interests. Both represent nothing more that wildly out of control speculation---real honest to God tin foil hat stuff.
Secondly, if the firing of Comey was the trigger to make the FBI to investigate if Trump was working with the Russians---why was the FBI investigating the Trump campaign in 2016? I thought the FBI supposedly was investigating collusion with the Russians in 2016. You guys need to get your Russia Russia Russia time line straight before you get Obama sent to jail for civil rights and Federal election law violations.
Comey 's firing triggered McCabe the dishonored pos deputy fbi director to investigate... the guy that got fired...and we r supposed to be worried... yeah right.

He does have quite a conversation going with himself. When this falls apart he will vanish for about a week.

It’s not just me, right?
That’s a give-ya-chills plot twist, right?
Obama knew what he was doing.
He opened a hydrant knowing the FBI would someday need that water to put out a national inferno.
If Obama did what you are saying he did, he's going to Levenworth on sedition. So, once again, I would caution you about going down that rabbit hole.
If the FBI did that, either they belong in jail for sedition, or they need to banned forever from law enforcement for stupidity.
In any event, didn't Mach get all excited about fake news from the NYlies on Manafort the other day that they had to retract?

RE: FBI investigating Trump as a Russian asset.
If Hussein is responsible for this he should rot in Levinworth. Scum of the century.
The Mueller investigation is desperately seeking Susan to save Hussein’s ass and the integrity of their hallowed institutions. This is the greatest bait and switch in the history of the world.

You mean Comey and McCabe had him under investigation? That FBI??? We already know they had a big time personal political agenda and on top of that are as crooked as Hillary. Nothing to see here, but keep fishing the waters in hope of catching something ... anything.

The original post was about the twitter feed. Did you read it? All other posts branch off of that even some that come to a different conclusion. I believe the post you are describing was an attempt by me to explain how Someone could say Trump was not the initial subject of the investigation. It has always been about Russia. Trump just happens to be in bed with them.

Trump paid for the Russian dossier that was intended to discredit himself??? You know ... the fake dossier that was intended to tamper with the 2016 Presidential election. Didn't you mean to say that it was Hillary that was in bed with the Russians???

This thread was about Mach proving, once again, how he is the most mentally unstable person on this board. It may be a cry for help. Does anyone know him personally to check on him?

Why do just snowflakes keep up their desperate hopes that it is believable when the rest of the country has come to grips with the fact that it is nothing more than one giant lie bought and paid for by CROOKED HILLARY?

RE: FBI investigating Trump as a Russian asset.
*NPCs chanting* "The walls are closing in. Is this the beginning of the end" *as Trump enters his 3rd year of presidency and the 3 year old investigation has failed to bear any fruit of the russia collusion narrative*
To respond to the OP, the deep state thought Trump might be a Russian asset because he fired Comey (who everyone wanted fired, both sides of the aisle hated him), and despite the full bore of the government investigating they still have no evidence to support the collusion narrative. Because if they did have actual evidence, they wouldn't sit on it and let a Russian agent continue to be president lol. This whole collusion narrative premise is asinine. Trumps policy actions have been unkind to Russia.
Long term i expect it to come out that the collusion narrative was the "insurance policy" Hillary hired Fusion GPS to create in case she lost to undermine Trumps presidency. Hell, I'll laugh when wikileaks offers proof one day that it was a leak and not a hack of the DNC server undercutting the whole narrative.

RE: FBI investigating Trump as a Russian asset.
You guys would answer your own questions if you stopped to think about it. Why is Mueller taking so long? Because the investigation is not finished. They were still gathering intel. That’s why Kushner and Trump Jr. were never called in. They were gathering information on them. Remember how all the people coming out of the questioning were saying Mueller knows everything?
I love the line. It’s like a fresh baked Steele Dossier every morning for breakfast. Everybody spies in the Russians and Mueller has access to it all. Think about that! You know they discussed how they have Trump over a barrel. Google that phrase. That came from someone else’s IC. Word is that it was Spain’s. Don’t worry Trumpkins. The pain will soon be over, but I let you guys deal with the carcass. I pray you don’t deal with it and you put him st the top of the ticket. Lightning doesn’t strike in the same place twice.

RE: FBI investigating Trump as a Russian asset.
I know Mach wants Trump to have been involved with Russia illegally in the worst way....or be violating the emoluments clause.....or have been illegally involved with hookers - and on and on.
Why, all because he has an “R” next to his name. He will go down any path, believe anything thrown out there. This whole Trump thing is like a continuous giant millennial temper tantrum because the anointed Queen didn’t ascend to her rightful throne.
What all this “stuff” has actually uncovered is that we have a huge unelected bureaucracy that is crooked at the higher levels. It has shown it’s willingness to tip the scales for its wishes, not that of the citizenry.
It’s disgusting and I fear it will only get worse.
Mach, Trump will only be president for 6 years more at most. Many of us endured 8 years of Obama and we certainly weren’t thrilled. What should alarm and worry you far more is the Federal bureaucracy’s willingness to go beyond the laws in place limit their powers. What is scary is what they are willing to do at high levels against powerful people......because if they decide to railroad the average Joe, he has almost no chance.
A dead fish rots from the head and I fear my government is rotting in many places in many agencies at the highest levels.........
