Former Obama official discloses rush to get intelligence on Trump team

[Barnabas]

His disclosures were weird, they included both personal and corporate liability claims. There are several lawsuits in the works seeking clarification.

Well that actually makes more sense than the nonsense stabenow is talking about.

[Allybeboba]

But I tought MSNBC is FAKE NEWS. So how can we be sure? /s

Kek.......

Apparently gay marriage is attack on their poor religion. And maybe Obama having been "kenyan muslim" and "leader of isis" if they believe their God King Trump.

Trump is also friends with Clinton.

Don't forget, Trumpets live in and live by alternative reality.

Things like that clearly never happened in history, did happen in their alternative world.

The musical instrument?

Him and Clinton literally went and devoured aborted fetuses on the steps of the church then prayed to allah while a priest cried.

I heard they bottled those priest's tears so they could them in a ritual later that night.

Smart move to fear obstruction of justice since that's what they seem to be doing right now. Lets hope the FBI were as prescient.

Apparently Comey asked to disclose information on the investigation last year around the same time but was told no by the White House until multiple intelligence agencies had sufficient information to back up the claim.

Probably for the best. An op-ed wouldn't have carried the same weight and might have provided a cover of legitimacy for Repubs to get rid of him.

[TriHard]

Just gonna take a chapter out of President Donald Duck's book.


Fake news.

[Frogguh]

The former administration, the children known as congressional Democrats, leftist judge activists, and the violent leftist protesters do not care about the health of the country. Politics and progressive indoctrination are all that matter to them, which is why they are doing everything they can to sabotage attempts at success.

Haven't seen anything of "success" from the Trump administration so far. I have seen a lot of scandals and evidence of bigger ones down the line, and a few failures, but no success so far.

Funny how you call them all "leftist activist judges" but one of the ones that banned the first Muslim ban was a Bush appointee, so nothing but bullshit from you so far.

[Super Kami Dende]

If they had anything tangible or even remotely worthwhile, they would've used it by now.

At this point it's just stalling and fear mongering to keep the Left in hysterics.

Nonsense. Watergate lasted nearly 2 years.

Well forcing Catholics out of business and suing them because they wouldn't make a Gay Wedding Cake is pretty much an attack on their religion. The irony is in America you can make Christians and Catholics do things against their beliefs with fear of prosecution. But people are completely fine allowing other religions do things because they feel guilty to tell them not to because something-something-Phobia.

[Doctor Funkenstein]

Well, he only publicly said he hopes Russians hack some more during the election...

He also suggested people assassinate Clinton.

If that doesn't stop people from voting for someone, I honestly have no idea what would. Short of raping your mother in front of you. Maybe.

You forgot how he tends to also take credit for things that went into effect or were planned before he took office.

[Pipebomb]

Was the information she disseminated throughout Capitol Hill classified?

Edit: Also the interview is from 27 days ago

How come the anti-Trumpettes haven't made fun of me yet? Maybe that information WAS classified.

[Zan15]

wait you mean opposing parties try to get intel on each other.

no freaking way.

[ringpriest]

It's almost as though they thought Trump & Co. were guilty of something - oh, wait, it turns out, that is exactly what they thought:
"FBI Director Comey sought to reveal Russian election meddling last summer: report"

FBI Director James Comey sought to publish an op-ed as early as last summer about Russian efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election, but was barred from doing so by the Obama White House, Newsweek reported Wednesday.

In a White House meeting in June or July, Comey reportedly brought with him a draft of the proposed op-ed and presented it to top administration officials, including former Secretary of State John Kerry and former Attorney General Loretta Lynch.

"He had a draft of it or an outline," a source with knowledge of the meeting told Newsweek. "He held up a piece of paper in a meeting and said, 'I want to go forward, what do people think of this?'"

White House officials at the time ultimately rejected the idea, deciding instead that any effort to make information about Russian election meddling public should be coordinated between multiple federal agencies, according to the report.

Thanks, Obama!

Of course. The democratic party has gone off the deep end. A bunch of radicals are in charge of it now.

On topic, they spied on Trump. The same thing Nixon did back in the 1970's which led to his resignation. They like to play word games as if wiretapping or eves dropping by other means is different. It is still spying on the opposition party.

Point of information: Parts of the intelligence community (are alleged to have) spied on foreign communications (which is something they are legally allowed to do, no matter how you or I might feel about it - indeed, it is their job to do so). That Trump campaign staffers were on one end of the surveilled communications is not the basis for cries of bias and oppression, but instead is both rather damning and potentially incriminating.

Yeah, I have heard that excuse they are using before.

[Orbitus]

No one but conspiracy theorists suggest otherwise. Why should we believe them over the intelligence agencies? If Trump was wiretapped, he would have the ability to check since he is president. And if he wanted to, he could declassify that information and release it. Since he isn't doing that, then there is no evidence to suggest that Trump was right in any sense of the word.

Not the bloody same thing.

Nixon used to power of his office to do his crap.

What may or may not happend during Obama's watch had nothing to do with the Obama administration since it was a independent investigation into Trump's team.

You know people, Obama is actually a really smart person. He knows he doesn't have to push the FBI to investigate Trump and his campaign because Trump himself was pushing for Russians to hack Clinton.
