#Trump #Comey #MSNBC
Israel have a islamic party government….yes!!! Thank you cnn, the squad..thk you woke college students and democratic party. You did it you kick bb out and a arabic muslim party is in…thank you liberals
Arrest them it’s a misuse of power ..
I’m 40 now. what they gone still be talking about trump and his offenses when I’m 80. just lock him up or shut up.
After knowing this event if there is any doubts about Trumps ability to use the government to spy on people it due to a blind illusion! If there had been one shred of evidence against Bidden Obama or the Clintons he would have provided it to the American people!!
Why is Trump so rich, but I am so poor?
Hitler also attacked news outlets that criticized him. Trump didn’t come up with the “fake news” phrase on his own. Hitler’s version was lügenpresse.
Abuse of power.
Trump surrounded himself with criminals. If anybody wouldn’t commit crimes for him, he replaced them with somebody who would. It’s a nasty stain on Merrick Garland that the Justice Department hasn’t charged Barr for any of his crimes.
2017 Not the best year.
i say go for Hannity’s phone records as he’ll lead ya to insurrectionists for sure
The Obama Administration literally spied on Trumps campaign and you didnt even care. Now you’re reporting on this when the federal government records everyones phone calls lol. Now you’re acting like this is a big deal lol. Your readers sure are stupid.
Trump’s administration, just like his corporation, rotten to the core. So many Trump associates, to include personal lawyers, campaign managers, executives, political appointees, family members and even insurrectionist supporters in legal jeopardy, all with the common denominator of doing Trump’s bidding. It’s like a Mob family, all is done with blind loyalty to Don the Con.
Scientific laws are inviolable. Based on Physical Laws, the book, The Eloquence of Effort, has forecasted the imminent collapse of the Trump Empire. The recent events provide ample evidence. Currently, the very foundations of the Trump façade are being rocked by a multitude of corrosive scandals. Accordingly, Trump and his deck of cards will crumble into the sewers of history. It is imperative says the Second Law of Thermodynamics. The Law of Karma applies as well.
Was there a warrant? Who was the judge? Did the phone companies hand over info without a warrant? This is disturbing to sy the least.
This is why we can’t ever have Trump near our government. This is not Russia. We have freedoms that can’t be taken away from us by the president. Sadly, his administration thought that he was a king as was allowed to do whatever he wanted. That is not how it works.
He’s sooooooo dirty
All right, so dRump spoke to his buddy Poutinnn and asked him: “Vlad, what shout I do about the leaks?” – Vlad answered: “Put them out of business and put them to rest, Don Corleone. This is how I do it here in my homeland. I put journalists to rest.”
DT and his former justice department acted like Gestapo and KGB
How about Comey leaking information about Wiener’s laptop and Clinton? Heck, he had a press conference. No one cares. He was engaged in politics in 2016, he assisted the GOP and McConnell’s shaping of the Trump Campaign and Russian interference cover up, but we don’t get any information about that. Once again, failure of the mainstream media.
Well ya
Now I know less
Obama was more conservative than people seemed to think.
Biden seems to be a better leader than any President since Reagan; he’s working with people to get things done that could not happen from a mere top-down approach, and he does so respectfully.
Granted, I don’t expect him to “Free Julian Assange,” which would be the right thing to do, but still, he has exceeded my (low) expectations for a President.
That’s where all those prank calls came from.
America still talking about trump, instead of locking him up. Only in America.
