Why are you both still complaining? You should both be thrilled that the government was and is doing their job.
This one was different, It was apparent that this one was rotten from the start because of the volume of fake news leaked bombshells which propelled it (as Taibbi calls out his peers). I told you as it was happening. How many times did I play the Farkas video, soliciting leaks, or post Eli Lake's "Flynn appetizer/Trump entree" article. I called this stuff out to you, as it was happening, & you just waved it off, as "everbody leaks." ...not like this they don't. I told you this thing was rotten from the start & you tried to turn it around on me, just like you're trying to now.

I ask again -- before Crossfire Hurricane, how many FCI's have you even heard about ? How many were covered by the MSM ? How many have been opened & closed since 9-11 ? How many yielded actionable intel ?
The fact that we haven't heard about them demonstrates how it's supposed to work when the agents conducting them, & their supervisors, do not abuse the powers of their office. We don't hear about them when they're not weaponized for political purposes & leaked to the MSM.
Now the enablers are blaming the process, rather than the corrupt cabal who abused it.

That didn't last long. Back to your petty game of "everyone has to be flawless except Trump and his people".
None of us care about your petty partisan nonsense complaints. Not even a little. You think we're supposed to be outraged by the FBI, and cheer innocent doe-eyed Trump on?!? Get out of here with this nonsense.
If everyone is supposed to be perfect, where's your outrage at Flynn for lying? Where's your outrage at Trump for abusing his office and firing Comey? And attempting to fire Mueller? And messing with the whistleblower? And the meeting with a Russian spy.
You don't care about any of that.
Sell it to FoxNation. They'll slurp up your half-baked partisan "logic" with spoon, and lick the bowl clean.
How many FCI's had you heard about before Crossfire Hurricane ?
Were you even aware they were taking place ?

Re: IMPEACHMENT ... If not now, WHEN?
Pot meet kettle. You've given us three years of every excuse you can come up with as to why it's ok for the leader of the free world and his team to lie, bend rules, and abuse power. Or, most frequently, you ignore posters who get mad at this stuff.
And now here you are, demanding we get mad at the FBI for lying, bending rules, and abusing power.
When the FBI does it, you're furious. When Trump does it, not only do you not care, you make fun of your fellow posters for getting mad about Trump's behavior.
So really, I don't know what to tell you other than: what comes around, goes around. Enjoy all this corruption that you yourself have encouraged.
Re: IMPEACHMENT ... If not now, WHEN?

Skeezy behavior is not a crime. Suspicion & innuendo are not proof.
Trump will pass from the scene. Until he does, get a grip & make the best of it.
On the other hand, the FBI are supposed to be the good guys. They were hired, not elected, to protect us & our rights.
No matter what Trump does, it doesn't justify doing what the FBI did.
Did you tell your parents -- "but all the other kids are doing it."
For 3 years you've been ridiculing me as a FNC watching tin foil hat conspiracy theorist, without giving me credit for calling out what was going on, as soon as it happened, with every leak. I called out the Deep State cabal well before FNC got with it.
It all comes back to the leaks. If the Deep State saboteurs were acting in good faith, we'd never have heard of the Steele Dossier or the Crossfire Hurricane file. They'd both be resting quietly in Comey's bottom desk drawer. Evelyn Farkas & Ben Rhodes got their wish. How'd it work out ?
