Russia? No, the Pony in the Manure Is the Corruption of our Intelligence Officials
By Clarice Feldman

There’s so much in print and online about the House and Senate intelligence committees and Russian “collusion” with Trump that I can’t blame people with real lives to lead who just throw their hands up and garden or go hiking. Some will assume there’s got to be a pony in there somewhere, as Ronald Reagan used to joke about the kid digging through manure. I think there is, but it isn’t that Russia corrupted the 2016 election, it’s that Obama and his closest aides, including some at the highest level in the intelligence community, illegally intercepted one or more Republican candidates’ communications before the election, circulated them widely to their cohorts and then tried to use this information to defeat and later to hamstring Trump when Hillary -- to their surprise -- lost the election.

Fascinating, I'm not all up on this scandal. I still think most of this is speculation on both sides.

And here I thought at least the days of blaming America were over with Trump.

Identical topics merged.

...it’s that Obama and his closest aides, including some at the highest level in the intelligence community, illegally intercepted one or more Republican candidates’ communications before the election, circulated them widely to their cohorts and then tried to use this information to defeat and later to hamstring Trump when Hillary -- to their surprise -- lost the election.

I also suspect that the attacks on Flynn have nothing to do with his Russian contacts which he disclosed, but, rather, to misdeeds respecting the Middle East, particularly Iran, the country he observed as Obama’s head of the DIA.

I think this may be correct.

Michael Flynn finally admits he had been paid by the Russians.

Michael Flynn finally admits he had been paid by the Russians.

And just last week CENTCOM said that Russia has been arming the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Russia is fully engaged in a new cold war against America and we better figure it out in a hurry.
