This could get interesting.

Why was the executive branch putting assets in an opposition party campaign?



LINK

quote:

The head of the research firm behind a dossier of allegations against then-presidential candidate Donald Trump told congressional investigators that someone inside Trump’s network had also provided the FBI with information during the 2016 campaign, according to a newly released transcript, a claim quickly disputed by people close to the investigation into Russian interference in the election.

Glenn R. Simpson, a founder of the research firm Fusion GPS, spoke to investigators with the Senate Judiciary Committee for 10 hours in August. As the partisan fight over Russian interference in the 2016 election has intensified, Simpson has urged that his testimony be released, and a copy of the transcript was made public Tuesday.

If they had an informant and this shits been going on for almost 2 years now then it's pretty obvious they have nothing. If it weren't already obvious a year ago.

How many years has it been going on with Hillary, with nothing to show? Oh wait, they've really got her this time.

Like Lynch was going to let anyone charge HRC with anything.

It helps to have friends in high places.

Even then, with federal assets in the opposition campaign, the Dems still managed to lose.

Why would the FBI 'get her'? They were working for her, essentially.

Nothing doesn't equal thousands of illegal emails that you and I would be arrested for years if we had them on personal servers. Thanks for playing.

It's hilarious that progressives are so afraid of Russians, but their actions in the 2016 election are exactly the kind of actions they accuse the Russians of.

-Rigged the Democratic Primary per Wikileaks
-Active collusion with the mainstream media per Wikileaks
-Funding a document used to spy on the opposing candidate's campaign
-Have an FBI informant in the opposing candidate's campaign

The hypocrisy is so obvious it's stunning.

Sounds like someone in the Trump campaign wilfully went to the FBI. Hope Hicks? Corey?

When the Obama administration wants to use our government as a weapon against their political rivals.. they really go all out.

The kim and castro regimes would be very proud.

It’s a reference to Papadopolous.

Simpson flubbed it.

The truly hysterical part is that most on the left are so fanatical to get Truml out they dont care about the means to do so.

Federal informants in the opposition? No problem.

FISA warrants to monitor web traffic of the opposition? Sounds good.

Collude with the national media to get out one message? Whats the worst that could happen...

Hiring foriegn actors to spy on the opposition? Lets claim they did this and pin it on them.

Mind blowing really, its amazing Trump won at all with the cards stacked against him like that.

Spied on political opposition much?

Are they carrying on now to justify their illegal activity then or is it a political hit against an administration they dislike?
