What am I missing???

ODNI Clapper restated that he had not seen evidence of Trump/Russian collusion going back to last year.

James Clapper, the former Director of National Intelligence, told a Senate Judiciary subcommittee on Monday that he still has not seen any evidence of any kind of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian foreign nationals.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-N.C., asked if Clapper’s prior statement was correct, when he said on NBC that there was “no evidence’ of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian officials. When asked if that is still accurate, Clapper said Monday, “it is.”

Now correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t BO say there was nothing to this? And didn’t all this actually go down on ‘his’ watch?

But it seems only Trump and his people are being questioned…

Why was the DNC server never examined by FBI Cyber? I know some of those folks and they are damn good! Who actually pulled the string that tied the Russians into it WITHOUT examination???

Why was this not investigated PRIOR to the election? If it was this serious, one would think people would have been all over it… Even the FBI says they’ve been investigating since something like last July! Which tail is wagging which dog?

It’s a given that the left will do ANYTHING to tear Trump et al down, but this just seems even further over the top than normal. Granted Flynn obviously did wrong, and deserved to be fired, but I can only wonder if they are trying to take out the various Secretaries one at a time. Sessions now, then who???

And why are the Dems saying Sessions is lying and stonewalling the investigation that he’s recused himself from??? When he spent YEARS working in the Senate with these people?

His opening statement boiled down to these words, IMHO,

In Tuesday’s testimony, Mr. Sessions excoriated — in a voice that appeared quavering with anger at times — those who are knowingly distorting plain and simple events into this vast web of conspiracy.

“The suggestion that I participated in any collusion or that I was aware of any collusion with the Russian government to hurt this country, which I have served with honor for over 35 years, or to undermine the integrity of our democratic process, is an appalling and detestable lie,” he said, looking sharply at the senators he worked alongside for the past two decades.

Apparently they wanted him to throw Trump under the bus to save himself today, which he refused to do, and he also refused to be bullied into answering questions without being able to frame the answers correctly…

I can’t help but wonder what the ‘next’ manufactured story is going to be, and who will twist the truth first, the dems or the MSM. When the dems are actually confronted on the collusion claims, not a single one has come forward with anything like proof, a smoking gun, or anything other than innuendo…

And I wonder where the truth actually is anymore? Hiding in a tunnel somewhere in fear for its life???

  1. The Deep State still fears President Trump, which includes both the “Jeb!” Republicans and the Democrats. I think that the attacks will continue without pause until President Trump is out of office.

    The Democrats who tried to blister AG Sessions used this logic: The fact that there is no proof what-so-ever is proof positive that there was collusion and some deep and sinister Russian plot.

    It’s like the old witch argument: Put a witch in a big barrel of water. If she sinks and does not surface, ever, she was innocent. If she surfaces, she’s a witch, burn her at the stake.

  2. We’ve all been asking the question about whether the level of discord would lead to shooting. That question may have been answered, this morning.

  3. Can’t just come out and say that they’re shouting into the darkness because there’s nothing better for them to do, now can they?

  4. Its been seven months and still no PHYSICAL evidence of any collusion between Trump campaign members and Russia has been presented. Claims – but everyone under oath flatly states they personally have not seen any yet.

    Reminds me of the Obama birth certificate situation. Only back then, the press was the defender, not fanning the flames.

  5. All- thanks for the comments, and yes answered today. Bernie campaign volunteer with a criminal history. Thankfully a bad shot!
    Posted from my iPhone.

  6. Exactly my takeaways. Watching the news today after watching Sessions in the hearing and again, I am like…did any of you mofos watch the same thing I did? They are all reporting their own skewed narratives. Pisses me the hell off. Unsuspecting Americans will have no clue.

  7. I’m hoping that today’s shooting is a smack upside the head that the Dems/liberals/progressives/MSM media have needed to help them over their tantrums over Trump winning back in November. That they need to start acting like adults (or even teenagers) and knock off promoting violence, and murder, (yes, I know, it’s free speech, but like porn, what I have been seeing pushed by Hollywood/actor types sure seems like promoting murder) and begin to agree to disagree politely, and with respect. They don’t have to like the Republicans, they just have to work with them in a professional basis. Not screaming and having temper tantrums or swearing a blue streak at them.

    Be very interesting to see if the rhetoric cools off some after today. If so, the MSM will actually have to begin reporting on the various policy options. THAT could be a radical change!

    At least the shooter had lousy aim, and the cops had good aim, so we wont have to pay for a trial or to have this guy locked up in a psych hospital for the rest of his life.

  8. Fargo- Yep!

    Suz- From the coverage I’m seeing, they are crawfishing away from the shooter so hard they are leaving a rooster tail… sigh

  9. That’s cause they are always supposed to be the victim, not the aggressor. Besides…gun violence!! Not supposed to be Dems/libs/progressives doing ANY shooting with GUNS!! Gasp! Horrors!!

  10. Unfortunately, that shooting, and the others to come, are what the Progressives want to have happen. Notice the immediate pivot “we should all get along” (if you Republicans would only stop being unreasonable on gun control), and their top mouthpieces pretending to be reasonable while their street troops howl for more blood, and regret that it wasn’t Trump who was shot, and that Scalise lived.
    Progressives, like terrorists, seek to influence the government to change official policies to reward them and punish their enemies, while allowing themselves to attack the undefended with impunity.
    As people with little sense of history, Progressives seem to believe that if they can cause a civil war, that it will be like they imagine earlier conflicts were, and that the conservatives will line up like the British at New Orleans, or Picketts’ men at Gettysburg, to be slaughtered by the overwhelming Federal forces of social justice. Bullshit.
    If they are lucky, they will get collapsed cities (see, for example, the county-by-county election map, and consider how little reserve of resources exist within those cities, and how dependent they are on reliable transport systems – so, how’s that just-in-time delivery working for ya?)
    If the trust and courtesy which allows our society to function does actually break down to conflict on a local level, we all will be lucky if it does not get as bad as the Kansas/Missouri border conflicts of the Civil War, which make the “Troubles” in Northern Ireland look like a school picnic.
    Prayers for the wounded, thanks to the Detail members who stood to their salt and shot it out with this a**hole, saving many more.
    By the way – reports from Illinois showed that the shooter HAD an valid Illinois Firearms Owner ID Card – passed background checks, etc. and probably purchased at least his pistol legally. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/buster/james-t-hodgkinson/congressional-baseball-shooter-729035

  11. All the leftist clamour for ‘net neutrality’ is an effort to control the narrative and shut up people like us. Otherwise no one would be able to question all this Russian crap IMO.

    We may not get to the truth but we can certainly point out the lies and liars.
