If you actually cared about this case, you would have read the opinion from December. You don't care about the law, though, or facts. Just winning and trolling the libs.


And, I'm willing to bet you haven't folllowed the filings of DOJ and Powell.

Great! et's hear the recordings.

And Obama didn't like him because he suborned the chain of command and went rogue without proper financial disclosures. Hence why he filed his FARA years after the fact.


The recordings are irrelevant.

The original 302 is relevant. That is what we need to see.


The judge said it's not. Sorry.

He told Obama that Islamic terrorism was still a serious problem even though Osama was dead. Obama did not want to hear that.

Because Comey said it? Please.

Catherine Herridge is reporting. She is simply stating what was in the redacted portion of Rice's email.

Rice needs to be asked about why she wrote this email when she did.

And, Comey needs to answer to his comments. I think these things will happen. Maybe not publicly, but they will be questioned if they haven't been already.



I am looking forward to it. Right after we see Trump's tax returns and the various people legally subpeonaed by the House come at testify.

So strange.


When you are innocent, any sentence is too long.

No, it shows that Rice wrote a last second CYA email (15 days after the actual meeting) to make it look like they wanted everything "by the book". Unfortunately, for them, everything was not "by the book".


Yates did not know about it until the meeting. That is NOT "by the book."


Neither was the way Comey decided to have agents go to the WH to interview Flynn. He admitted that to the world.

I think what we are slowly uncovering was that none of this was "by the book." It was referenced in Rice's email twice - both times in quotes. There is a reason for that.
