Deranged Rhino Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Cornyn asking about why the FBI didn't offer a defensive briefing for Trump. This is a key question as it speaks to the motivation of those running the FBI investigation at the time. They were not trying to protect the country, they were trying to stop Trump. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 This is complete nonsense that Barr and the Republicans are shilling that the Mueller report cleared the Trump campaign of conspiracy. The report is very clear that they couldn't conclusively prove it with enough evidence. That's like saying Al Capone wasn't a bootlegger because he was never convicted of it. BS!

Deranged Rhino Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 That was a VERY interesting answer by Barr. He said people assume the only intelligence collection was done by one FISA (on Page) and one informant. He thinks there was more and is looking into it. There was more. It was illegal, Barr knows it. And it's going to come out. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
