After Deep State Fails To Eliminate Trump, Donald Retaliates With Executive Hammer
The pressure gets stronger as President Donald Trump relentlessly taunts the FBI.
The president took to social media early on Wednesday as is his custom and mused "how
things have turned around on the Criminal Deep State."
He continues as he remarks on the irony of the FBI "getting caught in a major SPY scandal
the likes of which this country may never have seen before" after they went after
"Phony Collusion with Russia," which he called "a made-up Scam".
"Look how things have turned around on the Criminal Deep State.
They go after Phony Collusion with Russia, a made up Scam, and end up getting caught
in a major SPY scandal the likes of which this country may never have seen before!
What goes around, comes around!" Trump tweeted.Since the New York Times and Washington Post on
Friday confirmed speculation that the FBI did, in fact, have a mole inside the 2016
Trump presidential campaign, President Trump himself has repeatedly questioned the legitimacy
of the Mueller probe.
He also pointed out that if there was indeed any evidence of collusion, the FBI's own
mole would have discovered it during the campaign.
Yet nothing was found or reported.
Instead, the Mueller probe has dragged on for more than a year wasting countless millions
of hardworking American taxpayer dollars.
The intelligence community insists that they never deliberately spied on the Trump campaign,
despite continued mounting evidence to the contrary.
As embarrassing and downright sinister revelations continue to mount, we now know that the bureau
FBI enlisted Stefan Halper, a US citizen, political veteran and longtime US Intelligence
asset, to befriend and spy on three members of the Trump campaign during the 2016 US election.
Those three members of the Trump campaign were Foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos,
Trump aide Carter Page, and campaign adviser Sam Clovis.
President Trump then moved on to respond specifically to the Obama-era Director of National Intelligence
James Clapper and his recent discussion on the issue of an FBI informant Tuesday during
ABC's "The View."
President Trump tweeted to Clapper – "No, James Clapper, I am not happy.
Spying on a campaign would be illegal, and a scandal to boot!"President Trump began
tweeting about the scandal he has dubbed "Spygate" last evening, using Twitter to question just
why Halper was paid so much money if he was not feeding information about the Trump campaign
to the FBI.
He also suggested that Bernie Sanders (VT-I) "got duped!" as the FBI used similar surveillance
tactics on his campaign.
Sanders was an early contender for the Democratic nomination and as a result of information
leaked from the Democratic National Convention, it was discovered he was the preferred candidate
of the people despite the DNC's preference for Hillary Clinton and her ultimate selection
as the Democratic party candidate.
"If they had spies in my campaign…for political purposes, that would be unprecedented,"
Trump said Tuesday during a meeting in the Oval Office with South Korean President Moon
Jae-in, calling it a "disgrace.""I hope there weren't," Trump said.
"[If there were], it would make every political event ever before look like small potatoes."Spygate
is not the only scandal plaguing the FBI this week either, as emails recently obtained by
Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson suggest that disgraced former Deputy FBI Director Andrew
McCabe may have actively leaked the now infamous Steel dossier to CNN.
An email exchange between McCabe and former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates revealed
that McCabe offered Yates a heads up on the CNN story and confirmed the network would
be running the story.
It raises many questions as to just how McCabe became privy to CNN's plans.Fox News:
"The Justice Department instructed its inspector general to investigate any alleged "impropriety
or political motivation" in the FBI's investigation into Russian interference and
potential collusion with Trump campaign associates during the 2016 presidential election, following
demands from Trump.
"I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look
into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political
Purposes—and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!"
the president tweeted Sunday.Earlier this week, the president met with Deputy Attorney
General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray in the Oval Office, discussing the expansion
of Inspector General Michael Horowitz's investigation to include "irregularities"
with the FBI or DOJ's "tactics concerning the Trump campaign."
White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders also said that during the meeting, the three
agreed that White House Chief of Staff John Kelly would "immediately set up a meeting
with the FBI, DOJ, and DNI together with congressional leaders to review highly classified and other
information they have requested."
That meeting is slated for Thursday, and will be with House Intelligence Chairman Devin
Nunes, House Oversight Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy, Wray, and Director of National
Intelligence Dan Coats.
Kelly will not attend the meeting — his role was simply to coordinate."
