Do you think the FBI did wrong in Flynn's case?


I'm waiting to read a list of charges. Or was it policy violations? They could be wrong on internal policy violations.

Trump was the one in charge. He was the one getting briefings about China. Regardless of the whether a Democrat might have done better or worse, Trump was the one whose actions might have cost us an unnecessary many thousands of deaths.

This is the first thing that Trump has done as our "buffoon" that might be that big mistake. I don't think anyone can securely give him a total pass on it.

Give it a break on "might have happened" which is really code for "given what we know now."

And I will say it again. First thing would be a travel ban from China to which the lefties would cry "RACITS! THEY ARE PEOPLE NOT VIRUSES."

And you and every leftie on here know it.

What did they do wrong?
The discussion by the FBI can be summed up in (do we give him preferential treatment because he was a patriot or do we treat him like anybody else we interview. No preferential treatment. No help. Lets see if he lies)
They made the right decision, treat it like any other interview. Nail the liars.

And I am glad he was because he is doing an excellent job at it.

Trump is the kind of person you want in charge in times of crisis.

I love how righties point out "leftist" (used loosely with Clinton) Officials who are sex offenders and are like "See you defend so and so"

No we don't.

We got Al Franken out of Office for taking an inappropriate picture without consent and kissing without consent.

We have been bashing the Clintons since before Trump made it popular on the right....

We mercilessly critique sex offenses on the left. So this "well look over there argument" does not work for the left, because we are already looking over there.....


I love Thomas Jefferson. One of the greatest authors and most influential people in history. His works are excellent (I particularly enjoy the Jefferson Bible, basically the bible with all of the absurd elements cut out, which turns out to be most of it.....) . But, he was a rapist (and owned slaves, but lets not go down that path here). I have no problem calling somebody I used to idolize a rapist even if it was hundreds of years ago. Just because I agree with somebody and love their work does not make them a good person. The right does not seem to grasp this, if they agree with somebody and love their work (I guess The Apprentice is the new classical art in their eyes), they will defend them tooth and nail for any sexual allegation......


Clinton is a monster and Trump is a monster. Both are Presidents, both cheated on their wives, both have long histories of sexual misconduct. Both visited the Epstein's island where only a fool would believe they did not engage in stuff that we don't even want to think about..... So yes, it is sad we have so many Presidents in this century that are sexual degenerates.



Bush was a genuinely good person. I may not agree with him on many issues politically , but he was not a scumbag. You knew he was real and down to earth (even with his faults). Obama was also a good person who was real and down to earth. I would love to meet and have a drink with Obama and Bush (I know he does not drink anymore its a metaphor), because you know with them the conversation would be real (and probably a lot of fun)....
The same cannot be said of Clinton and Trump, both are serial power abusers with a long history of misconduct who show a false side when on camera and in public.



Franken was gone because it was during the apex of the #metoo movement and it was politically expedient for the Dems
However, now that they have gone all in on Biden, it is no longer politically expedient to #BelieveAllWomen (unless, of course, Trump nominates another male to the SCOTUS when the time comes)

You must be too young to remember. They even had an impeachment pep-rally back in the day.

Yep, I remember that! Isn't it funny how today's media never even refers to that pep rally anymore?? It's like they want it scrubbed from the books.

Unfortunately for them, the smart people remember! They've been successful at making sure that young twentysomethings don't know about it though. 🙄

Quite the play to try and get a suspension for a general comment. Does fit into the general leftie thought process though 'I don't like what he is doing create a rule to make him stop'.
