That is dated March 24, 2017. I'm going by what was said May 11, 2017.

 

For what it is worth it was reported again today as a counter-intelligence investigation.

So as always we have people talking out of both sides of their mouths and people choosing and picking what they believe are "facts".

I am lost now, where has it been officially confirmed that it is anything other than a counter-intelligence investigation?

I've searched and can't find that is has been confirmed to be anything other than a counterintelligence investigation.

I think it is foolish for Schumer to "threaten" President Trump with the CIA. Rand Paul just talked about this in a live interview.

 

Please show me where the Assistant Director of the Justice Department is on the record saying that? I missed it. What I did see was left leaning media reports on the Assistant Director which have since been countered by the White House.

 

Your opening point about President Trump not getting his way is vague.

 

Of course he is better than HRC, HRC should be in Prison.

 

Not seen yet if Roenstein has confirmed but here is his letter from the BBC source. It notes the gravity of firing him and reasons to fire but I don't see a recommendation.

Looking again, the last line of the memo states that he believes Comey can't resurrect the Bureau's reputation.

So here he states he was not quitting when asked about the reports of his threatening the White House to change the slant from his recommendation to their decision. Rosenstein said, I'm not quitting."

I was just about to post the same thing.

 

Seems some of the talking points from the Left are just flat out false.

It appears I didn't define my President Trump not getting his way was too vague.

 

This is the first example I thought of yesterday. The Wire Tap accusations by the President. Comedy denied that they happened and basically dismissed the President's claims in public.

 

Later he fires the Director. To think this isn't a piece of the decision is naive IMO.

I admit my error in listening to them as well.

I do want to say this.

Facts today are like the Bible, you interpret however you want to.

 

I also think facts are so hard to read or hear today because ALL and I mean ALL the media distorts the facts as a way to make the opposing group look bad or they try to persuade their audience and brainwash their audience into believing the facts that they misconstrued.

I guess in the broadest sense I might agree with you but I'm still genuinely perplexed. Without judging culpability, democratic leadership is completely tone deaf and Republican leadership is seemingly incompetent. There's quite a few on both sides of the aisle that should be in a different line of work.

 

Still I fail to see the equivalence of a corrupt DNC running a Democrat primary and a West Wing who can't get out of its own way. I just can't for the life of me understand how, when the Trump team gets wackier and wackier, many from your side of the aisle seem to double down and decide to hate Democrats more.

 

Herein lies the blindness to the problems we face today. There is a great difference in corruptness and making blunders that someone who has NEVER held a political office before.

 

And by whose standards are these blunders? The way things have always been? Trump is not doing things like we think he needs to? The way things have always been has created Trump. Till the Democrats realize this they are going to be hard pressed to gain anything. Trump was elected to do things differently. The corrupt DNC and pretty much all Democrats are on board to do any and everything to bring him down, right or wrong. Its their game plan. Its also gonna help destroy our country and most are too blind to see it.

I'm a little confused.

 

My point maybe was not clear.

 

I think the President has a major problem with not getting his way. So he takes it out on those he can. If anything, the greatest blame to me lies in his advisors. They seem in over their heads.

 

He's still better than HRC in my opinion but to think this was the best the nation has to offer makes me shudder greatly.

 

I agree, this is disturbing. But the way things have been handled the last 8 years created Trump. There are a lot of factors that brought this on. Here is another issue that probably deserves it own thread thats gonna make the waters even more muddy.

This is the world we are now living in. Where facts and truth are not needed. Only what helps push a agenda. Its really amazing.
