No, the goal was absolutely to overthrow Trump. There was a chasm between what they wanted and what they got, but the goal was crystal clear.

Okay, you’re really struggling now.

I actually enjoy (sometimes) your contrarianism but I expect better than that above.

I’m asking you to tell what you think Perkins Cole did regarding this.

Their role was done when the DOJ acted.

I don't think any evidence has been shown that they had any involvement at the point where the DOJ engaged in the illegality.

I agree with with most of what you said however the president has the final say about security clearances and classified documents and that is acting within the confines of his power. This is about Trump revoking their security clearance and the court said no. If that's the case then the courts could theoretically make Trump assign security clearances to whom ever they wish as well . Way way overstepping there boundaries.

It's why he is avoiding the temporary nature of security clearances.

Exactly. They would have thrown him in prison if they could have. Just like they tried before this election.


And he still ignores it:


Section 1. Purpose. The dishonest and dangerous activity of the law firm Perkins Coie LLP (“Perkins Coie”) has affected this country for decades. Notably, in 2016 while representing failed Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, Perkins Coie hired Fusion GPS, which then manufactured a false “dossier” designed to steal an election. This egregious activity is part of a pattern. Perkins Coie has worked with activist donors including George Soros to judicially overturn popular, necessary, and democratically enacted election laws, including those requiring voter identification. In one such case, a court was forced to sanction Perkins Coie attorneys for an unethical lack of candor before the court.

It's like the 4th time posted and he is still arguing that their view point is the issue.

Clearly, but a lot of effort was put into this.

You don't climb a mountain to retrieve a dollar bill.

What about interfering with his 2020 run?

Again, I don't think we have any evidence for this

IIRC, even the Page-Strozk texts show it was to thwart and hurt him politically

I don't believe there's any indication of overthrowing him. Neutering him? Yes

Now he's moving into the attack phase because he can not and will not address the concern. He demands it be about what he wants it to be about.

You’re saying the DOJ engaged in illegality?

What illegality are you saying they engaged in?

I gave an interpretive response after what you quoted. Why did you leave that out? Why do you keep actively engaging in dishonesty?

It is not. Only because you demand this to be about viewpoint, and it is not.

Section 1. Purpose. The dishonest and dangerous activity of the law firm Perkins Coie LLP (“Perkins Coie”) has affected this country for decades. Notably, in 2016 while representing failed Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, Perkins Coie hired Fusion GPS, which then manufactured a false “dossier” designed to steal an election.

"We" don't define evidence, individuals do. IMO there's more than enough evidence to reach the conclusion that they were trying to get him out of office. In your opinion there isn't.

I don't see how this wouldn't be grounds for security clearance removal.

The people elected Trump. You don't like that. So you spread lies in an attempt to limit his political power.

What illegality are you saying they engaged in?

We know for a fact, at a minimum, what Clinesmith did.

As I said, if you want to revoke security clearances for illegality from Russiagate, remove the DOJ's.

DOJ =/= Perkins Coie

Clinesmith was not an employee of PC, nor were any of the DOJ lawyers who participated in the...exaggerations in the affidavits (we'll be euphemistic).
