The deep state is freaking out. People who thought they could operate in the shadows without consequence are being exposed and they don’t like it. Some are lashing out. Fox News reported that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein threatened members of the House Intel Committee if they released a damning memo.
Gregg Jarrett: I can tell you a congressional source tells me that Rod Rosenstein in a meeting three weeks ago threatened Chairman Nunes and members of Congress he was going to subpoena their texts and messages because he was tired of dealing with the intel committee. That’s threats and intimidation.
A former CIA counterterrorism official threatened President Trump.
Former CIA counterterrorism official Phil Mudd: The FBI people "are ticked" and they'll be saying of Trump, “You’ve been around for 13 months. We've been around since 1908. I know how this game is going to be played. We're going to win" http://cnn.it/2GEPZD3
This is what happens when a country has eight years of a lawless administration. President Barack Obama had nothing but contempt for our elected representatives and by extension, the American people.
How many times did members of his administration stonewall or outright defy request and subpoenas from Congress? This kind of attitude bled down into the bureaucracies and now we have a deep state that believes it can violate our laws and possibly commit a coup. These are dangerous times for our republic.
Republicans on the House Intel Committee are moving onto phase two of exposing high corruption in the federal bureaucracies. This time it’s the State Departments turn to get sprayed with some disinfectant. Rep. Devin Nunes revealed the following:
"We are in the middle of what I call phase two of our investigation, which involves other departments, specifically the State Department and some of the involvement that they had in this," Nunes said.
"That investigation is ongoing and we continue work towards finding answers and asking the right questions to try to get to the bottom of what exactly the State Department was up to in terms of this Russia investigation."
The cockroaches in the media and Democratic Party are frantically calling for the ouster of Rep. Nunes as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee. The Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer, wrote a letter to House Speaker Ryan calling for his removal. Mind you, Schumer and his cabal of totalitarians demanded the IRS crackdown on the Tea Party and other conservative organizations.
Dear Speaker Ryan:
“I write to express my deep concern that under your leadership House Republicans have not taken credible action to fully address Russia’s interference in our democracy and prevent cyber-attacks from Russia in the future. Instead, it appears that many House Republicans have decided to sow conspiracy theories and attack the integrity and credibility of federal law enforcement as a means to protect President Trump and undermine the work of Special Counsel Mueller.”
“In particular, Devin Nunes, Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), has now drafted and seeks to release a conspiracy-themed memo that selectively cherry-picks classified information intended to discredit the past work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and ultimately Special Counsel Mueller. Even more extraordinary is that the actions of Chairman Nunes and his supporters are being actively parroted by Russian-linked cyber actors on social media with the intent to discredit U.S. democratic institutions.”
It looks like this massive, bureaucratic turdball is about to rollover these screaming dung beetles.
