LOL, another new excuse for the spying....protecting Trump
Quote:If the FBI used an informant, it wasn't to go after Trump. It was to protect him.
President Donald Trump and his allies are outraged at reports that the FBI used an "informant" to spy on Trump's 2016 campaign. "Really bad stuff!" the president tweeted early Friday. Supporters of the White House claim the FBI's reported tactics were illegal. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., has even subpoenaed the Justice Department for information on who the informant might have been; department and FBI officials say public disclosures of this kind could put sources in danger.
But Trump and his backers are wrong about what it means that the FBI reportedly was using a confidential source to gather information early in its investigation of possible campaign ties to Russia. The investigation started out as a counterintelligence probe, not a criminal one. And relying on a covert source rather than a more intrusive method of gathering information suggests that the FBI may have been acting cautiously – perhaps too cautiously – to protect the campaign, not undermine it.

They were doing police work. You know, their job. I know you hate the law and all, but why do you hate America?

I'm sure hoping Trump is doing lots of police work today against all of his political enemies and using the full force of taxpayer-funded organizations like the FBI and CIA. Heck, think of the organization he can have in place for the 2020 election, jam-packed with police work.
The template has been laid. No need for a crime. Just do the police work until one is found.....oh, and leaks, lots of damaging leaks.
Glad we're in agreement on this cb.
And I certainly don't hate America. I'm loving this new and improved America. Now that the pubs are in power and using these new police work tactics, they should be able to stay in power for decades. Cheers!!!

Do you think Obama and Hilary never spoke to people being looked at by the feds? They never seemed to make a big deal about it. I wonder why?

...and that's exactly why Killery stated that if Trump won they would hang. Self fulfilling prophesy.
