    OAN Newsroom
    UPDATED 12:37 PM PT — Mon. May 21, 2018


    Members of the Trump administration are up in arms about a potential FBI informant placed in the 2016 Trump campaign.

    What might work? Turning the DOJ and FBI against one another

    The FBI certainly investigated Clinton, so if the agency investigated Trump and the campaign, I would not be surprised.

    They wasted everyone's time and money and did nothing. What Clinton did was illegal, and anyone else putting classified material on an unclassified server would be doing time right now. She got a political pass because she's a Democrat and Clinton.

    Perhaps so. It does not look like the President is getting a pass.

    You know the deal by now. What happened/happens on another board means nothing here unless it's brought here. He gets a chance just like everyone else. Jim's policy.

    And I do know who he is. We've run into each other before.

    That "investigation" was completely botched and incomplete, swept into a dust dust bin
    by the Obama Admin.

    Correct in saying the bolded above. I would still be serving time if I had done as she did.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    Jake is a lefty. Or was last time we were on the same board. And I don't mean left-handed. If he wants to fight that uphill battle here it's on him.

    As long as everyone stays within the rules and keeps the gunfire down to a dull roar, I'm sure there won't be a problem.

    As far as Hillary goes, I don't think the 5th Amendment (double jeopardy) applies to Congressional/DOJ inquiries so I think they should start over using Mueller's "Trump Rules".

    I also think I'm wondering where Mueller's subpoenas for Strozk and his bimbo are.

    On one hand, Mueller is beating a dead horse and subpoenaing everyone but the janitor (look for him next) while on the other he has completely ignored all evidence of Russian Collusion by DEMOCRATS, and conspiracy to defraud the President of an election.

    I think a Special Counsel should be convened on Mueller's Special Counsel.

    I think it's only fair that Jake is given a chance here.

    What happened on another board years ago should not necessarily apply here. He's said nothing on DP that warrants attacks.

    We've all talked about running off new members before they've had a chance to establish themselves.

    Well, my intent was not to run anybody away but to show my true colors too.
    I am all for this new member staying...and being a welcomed addition,( forgive me if I am just a bit too blunt).

    As to another board my friend, I havent a clue about this new member or any other board.--Tyr

    I am a "Lefty" only to those who hold to the Russo-Trump agenda. I voted for Kasich in the primary and McMullin in the general election. So call me what you want, people, it makes no difference to the truth.
