    You wanna rethink this?

    How is the DNC working with Steele, who was working with people with Russian interests, different from some Trump campaign worker trying to work with people with Russian interests?

    The DNC was successful and the Trump campaign worker was not.

    Is degree of separation most important?

    If Arpaio was on this forum and he called you a racist, would you report him? Disagree with him?

    Personally, I think racism is wrong. It's not just one way. Anyone who favors one skin tone over another is being stupid. They're being racist. Modern genetics have proven that all human beings are 99.1 to 99.5% alike. Skin tone makes as much difference between people as two different paint jobs on identical models of cars.

    T, do you believe those who perpetuate differences base upon skin tone are low-life, scumbag racist? Dimwits who are sorry examples of humanity and try to use racism as a means to make themselves feel better? Do you believe such people need mental health care?

    CNN, NYPost, TPM, Daily Caller…
    Maybe "frisk" is not the same as "searching a person for weapons"?
    Note, they burst through the bedroom door (the front door was quietly picked).
    Well, I guess this is S.O.P., but it does seem exaggerated.
    I don’t know how old she is, but given that he’s 68 and they’ve been married nearly 40 years, I’d figure she must be in her sixties, rousted from bed by a bunch of shouting FBI agents with their guns pointing at her as they search her in her nightgown.

    I think the Papadopoulos fellow had a Russian fetish, I read elsewhere repeatedly that the Greek was constantly promoting the idea there should be contacts with Putin's crew (and this was repeatedly dismissed).
    I suspect this abusive manner of proceeding was at Mueller's specific direction, that this is how he operates, it is intended to intimidate. Personally I think it is preferable to rely on the force of law, rather than try and intimidate people into compliance.

    The days current headlines so discouraging that they've got you taking a trip down memory lane? Maybe Dana is Sen. Johnsons "secret society" informant. What do you think spurred Rybickis resignation? Jimbo served as the FBI's chief of staff for some time. Looks like Jimbo isn't the devoted civil servant people though.

    Maybe crackpot Johnson's informant is Chris Steele or Stoolie Nunes?

    Recomendation(s) for criminal prosecution (espionage) have already been delivered to the OIG in Steeles case ... perhaps he IS cooperating. :;):

    So you agree that Johnson is spewing bullshit to try to confuse more tRUmp sycophants and throw them a lifeline. Try harder.

    I agree that Johnson has someone giving congressmen 1st hand accounts of activities conducted by the FBI's "secret society" ... and while unlikely, it is plausible that Steele, as you suggest, is cooperating with investigators.

    Based on a memo that Devin Nunes created and would not share with the FBI but shared with Alex Jones???? ROTF! Seriously bro(?), you are stretching, make sure you don't fall on your face.

    Based on Sen. Johnsons televised statement of fact. Congress has a cooperating witness.

    And ... apparently current headlines are too discouraging for you to address. So you've resurrected an inane point, on a played out thread. It might be that Dana is the "secret society" informant we've just learned about. It's equally as possible she's a member who's soon to be exposed. You might hold off until the race has been won before taking your victory lap champ.

    Makes total sense since Boente already knows the history of this investigation. Let's see how it plays out.

    That's significant? How, and why did Boente land such a prominent position? Rybicki after a decade of fighting his wat up through the rank and file suddenly resigns? Nothing peculiar about his departure coming 1 week after testifying?

    Think Dana fell short of pension.
