The One Thing

I Forget: Is the FBI an Arm of the Clinton Campaign or Is the Clinton Campaign an Arm of the FBI?



Pick a gator, any gator...

So in the guise of a briefing, the FBI deceptively ambush-interviews Mike Flynn without his lawyer present. The guy who interviews him, Strozk, is Hillary's wholly-owned Counter-Intelligence operative and is later canned along with his anti-Trump mistress--but he was fired only because Mueller had to. In violation of all rules of evidence, Mueller hides this fact until after Flynn pleads guilty. Reportedly, there are 27 such crooked agents, many operating out of Asst. Dir. McCabe's Office of Doing Whatever Hillary Tells Us to Do.

Perhaps Sleepy Jeff has been rooting them out after all. We'll see.

And now Flynn's judge recuses himself. Guess what? He's a FISA Court judge, perhaps the one who permitted the Trump family to be wiretapped for the Clinton Campaign.

It was nice of the FISA judge who wiretapped Flynn to recuse himself of sentencing the man also. A mere technicality, but nice.

The Clinton Campaign, the Comey Email Investigation, the Trump Family wiretapping, the #VeryFakeNews, the Tarmac Meeting, the Steele Dossier, the Mueller Investigation, Fusion GPS--we think of these as separate things. They're not.

They are all The Same Thing.

To paraphrase the greatest political thinker of our time$, "a vast Deep-State Conspiracy".

I would guess that next, the Mueller/Clinton/Media Party will co-ordinate to bring back out the women who accused Trump. [Bingo! Right on schedule.-ed.]

Mueller will probably then go after Trump's businesses and his family members, trying to bait Trump into firing him.

Throw in the phony Obstruction of Justice charge for firing the corrupt hack Jim Comey and there's your Impeachment Soup.

It won't work, of course. In fact, it has turned back on them.

But It's What's for Democrat Dinner.

Police stop traffic to allow Mr. Mueller to go to work.

The Sultan on Swingers-UPDATE: 

"Everybody knew.

The media liked to pretend that its reporting on politicians and celebrities keeps them honest. But it was all one club. And everybody in the club knew what everyone else was up to. And kept quiet about it.

The politicians and celebrities, and the reporters who interviewed them, weren’t in three separate businesses. They were in three interrelated branches of the same industry of narratives. It was the media’s job to turn some politicians and celebrities into culture heroes based on their politics. While doing everything possible to destroy those politicians and celebrities with the wrong views.

The politicians were expected to pass the agendas that the reporters and celebrities wanted. And it was the job of the celebrities to make the politicians and the reporters look as cool as possible.

Kevin Spacey, Harvey Weinstein, John Conyers, Al Franken, Matt Lauer and Charlie Rose were all in the same business. They were just working different ends of it. And working over different victims: underage boys, overworked female staffers, random fans, harried interns, famous actresses. But the details don’t really matter. Power has its privileges. The issue isn’t the privilege, it’s the power.

And the immunity from scrutiny that came with that power.

The left has done its best to make this about men. But it’s not about men. It’s about power. Men and women may abuse power somewhat differently. But the same arrogance that led Hillary Clinton to boost her presidential campaign with an illegal war in Libya led her husband to sexually abuse women.

The reporters who covered for Obama’s use of the IRS against his political opponents also covered for each other’s sexual misdeeds. These are not separate issues. They’re the same issue.

Power corrupts. And that corruption won’t just stop at any neat intersectional line. The myth of the pure revolutionary should have been buried with Stalin, Pol Pot and Che. But the left can’t escape the corrupt conviction that abusing power for a good cause is profoundly different than just abusing power.

And so the same sordid dramas keep playing out again.

Socialist regimes turn feudal. The revolutionaries become tyrants. Murder for the cause becomes just murder. Redistribution of wealth flows to the redistributors. Civil rights activists turn racist. Male feminists rape. The liars don’t just lie for the cause. They lie for their friends and for themselves.

The Obama scandals had three phases. 1. It’s right-wing nonsense. 2. It’s complicated. 3. Everybody knew. Number 3 was the climax to the denials and explainers of the previous two phases. It meant that this was just how it was done. The only people who didn’t know were just ignorant of the corrupt game.

Everybody knew. Everybody who matters always knows.".......
