    Just heard Lester Holt state that Flynn talked to the Russians after the election ( not during ) . He went on to state that all of this current info about conversations with Russia and Russian tampering was leaked information . Yet he went on to say that you can't discount the info gleaned from this investigation and absolve Flynn . I'm thoroughly pissed . They deny an investigation of Trump and his campaign yet have transcripts of conversations . They stated that Flynn's conversations were after the election but yet he still needs to be held accountable . Accountable for what . They deny the existence of any FISA warrant by saying that " I cannot comment on that " . Yeah we did illegal shit but we can't comment on that , Go fuck yourself American people . The Republican asking the questions at the time clarified that this was leaked info and that the individuals will be held accountable if found . Translation , we're gonna fuck the people who leaked it , deny our involvement and everyone else skates . It would seem that having parallel FISA warrants and investigations that the Trump investigation and subsequent info obtained could be hidden and disseminated as The investigation into Russian election hacking . And thankfully good old Lester Holt came out and stated that Russian campaign tampering is a fact , it happened . Well then I guess we can just close the hearing then since Lester has all of the facts and factual conclusions of this investigation and subsequent hearings . Wow really ?
     
    Yeah, Lester Holt......Another pinnacle of truth and integrity in the long list of "journalists" (Brian Williams, Dan Rather...etc. etc.). Funny, Holt apparently replaced Brian Williams after Mr. William's unfortunate brush(es) with "fact manipulation". How ironic. NBC, MSNBC, CNN ?.......they can all go screw for all I care. Isn't a shred of integrity or honesty among all of 'em combined. I'm pleasantly surprised that despite the fact the MSM has just continued to get worse in terms of propagating their lies, the American voting public were awake enough/cared enough to NOT choose hildebeast. It'll be interesting to see if the MSM ever wakes up....I doubt it. Nothing to indicate it so far.
     
    I have this playing in the background and tune in when I can but what I'm hearing is that the majority of the 'leaked' content is not necessarily even true. Comey's recurrent theme is most of the leakers (historically) are people a few degrees removed and don't know as fact the things they represent at fact. To me, this accurately covers both Trump's and the Media's crap.

    In other words, both sides are full of it and where there is truth in the leaks, it'd be retarded to state it on an open mic.

    I'd be happy if ALL the sources of the leaks, true or otherwise were outed. While it's not against the law to lie to the press it should be know who those are who are trying to manipulate the news.
     
    I listened to this almost all day long and basically the gist of what I got is that we can't talk about much of anything because there is an investigation going on. The big thing that I noticed is that he stated multiple times there was no wiretaps but that someone in Trumps camp, possibly the president himself, might have been under surveillance through other means which tells me a lot in and of itself. The whole thing seemed like a witch hunt to me and they were doing everything they could to make the president look like an idiot. Here is the big kicker everyone, including those doing the investigating, keeps assuming that the president is lying but who is to say there was not an illegal wiretap? Everyone keeps assuming this was a wiretap through legal means!!!! Hello!!!! Truth be told, we won't ever know. I can't tell you people I know in the intel community think Trump is an idiot but they are pretty far left anyways. Take that for whatever it's worth! I think the WH has something because they aren't backing down from this even tho everyone me confidence in them is slipping, fast. I don't think they would continue to make themselves look bad if they didn't have something but I could be wrong.
     
    I'd venture to say that alot of what we're seeing here is Soros money hard at work. As I've said before, to stop the threat of a snake, you cut off its head......

    Comey come across a shifty. He freely comments on the FBI's investigation of the Trump campaign and potential ties to Russia, but will not comment on security leak investigations. Maybe Trump is giving him enough rope to hang himself.

    Totally Correct.....There is no more "NEWS".....it is a "conditioned political report"...... and lies..... from our "source in Washington"...secret... ? ....leaked tips...... from unidentified sources..... B.S...

    If you have an Amazon Prime membership you can download the kindle app for your laptop or computer for free . I believe that the kindle book The Writings of Thomas Jefferson is free . Within the first few pages Jefferson clearly gives his opinion on what is transpiring right now and it would seem that we are all remiss in the Founding Fathers expectations of our stewardship of this great Country . And yeah anything with " Russian hacking has been proven " . Anything in the way of a Trump investigation is " I cannot comment on that " . Very pointed illustration of who is in control of this Country .
     
    A few points.

    No one asked if Hillary had any people caught in meetings with Russian Amb.
    They were saying "Wiretap" wiretap is a legal term. NSA Database surveillance is not a technically a wiretap. They said no President could order a wire tap without court. But they failed to say that he could order surveillance without court.
    Coming out of the intel briefing Feinstein looked like a deer in the headlights.
    This morning we find out Preet Bharara was investigating a Russian bank. Did Preet start this whole thing?
    I have a hunch that this entire affair is going to point right back at Hillary and Obama.
    I always try to look at what they are working hard to not say. It seems in this case there is a lot they are not saying.


    Trump has something I think, if not he is a fool. I don't see him as a fool.
