I subscribe to the idea that one day, perhaps soon, the DOJ is going to announce a bunch of indictments that will be more than anyone ever expected. Why? Because the idea that so many people will get away with crimes against this country, without even a slap on the wrist, is both preposterous and as damaging to our democracy as anything these criminals have done.
Let’s say this all collapses; new elections, MTG, Boo-boo, gone. McCarthy back to hoping he’ll make the HS football team….Gosar will be homeless bc his family won’t have him. Where would they all go? They don’t want to hang out in a diner in Wyoming where people can’t stop talking about what could have been. IF it does collapse it’s ALL over at once; possibly. I doubt Ginni Thomas or g-d known John Robert’s wife is going to have them over for dinner. Maybe?
Well well well!! It all comes back to Russia! Comey could just as easily said he was opening an investigation into the FBI office in NY for leaks to the press. Maybe that would’ve helped? Thanks for your insight! ❤️🙏
Aside from being right, that is funny. Is he divorced yet? Seriously he has daughters as well. I don’t wish him …. Never mind. I have thoughts on that. I’m still thinking about how much Putin hated HRC.
Like the Comey letter & the phone call with Zelenskiy, Trump's post-2020 election ploy to send DOJ letters to the States (stating that there was evidence of Democratic fraud) was designed to create the appearance that his election opponent was being investigated. Trump or Putin knew that appearances were as useful as facts, as he said about the letter to Georgia, 'Just leave it to me & the Republicans in Congress' to exploit the false picture the letter would present.
As for McGonigal, it's more than tempting to wonder what he was doing as an FBI boss in his field of cyber-ops while the US was being bushwacked in a cyber-war of which even the FBI allegedly had little or no clue. Too much coincidence to avoid a thorough probe of that.
I’ve been thinking a lot about counter intelligence. Specializing in misleading deceit but for the enemy is my understanding. What if all these bad guys had a chance to list all the times they did NOT fall to temptation. To take money. To keep a bad connection, to not take a risk to protect people. It would be irrelevant here, but interesting to hear, “this one time, and I got caught.” This is just a human interest comment. Nothing more. Curious why Wray is still there.
I'm done hoping the DoJ is going to do anything to the main players in the mess of Trump. Rich white politicians do not hold rich white politicians accountable. Rarely do they push that domino that will cause the rest to fall.
I agree; heard once this kind of spreading corruption spreads first among “friends.” Someone gets a good deal, you want in? Sounds innocent and soon it’s not so quiet. It’s big. A social phenomenon. No wonder Sinema wants in it all. She’s worth 11 million now. From just about zero. It’s just sickening tho that for every billionaire living in Florida now, hundreds died from Covid or are now evicted to give them that boardwalk lifestyle.

Keith Olbermann read a few passages of this substack on his podcast today. He mispronounced your name of course. You may want to take a listen. Very complimentary. Mentioned Dirty Rubles too.

I've been waiting for that day for going on seven years. I'm no longer certain it will come, but it must, it has to.
It must happen...we know this!! The Roman Empire imploded from corruption..Kids..a little OLDER than ..your children..will make it happen ☮️🗽❤️📯📯📯
IT REALLY TIED THE ROOM TOGETHER.
I tried so hard to work that joke in there!

Comey was more loyal to the FBI itself than to Justice or the Constitution
Almost 7ft of stoooopit 🤪

Well put. Loyalty to institutions above all else will be the death of us.
Perfect ☮️🗽👍
Comey DID tell us about the Russia investigation, but not until six months after the election. Oops!

Thanks, Richard. Good call about the Georgia statement.
I suspect this is only the beginning for McGonigal, but this may also be yet another thing they never tell us about.

And the 225k is just what we know about. Who knows how much was deposited into Jersey banks…
Or the crypto wallets.
Bet you a dollar McGonigal was a source for the bogus NYT Halloween '16 article
Like LB...says.. EVERYTHING is a Script 😟
And part of the simulation!
May well have been, but who knows. There was the bit in the NYT article when the McGonigal story broke about him using the press to shape opinion.
I'm done hoping the DoJ is going to do anything to the main players in the mess of Trump. Rich white politicians do not hold rich white politicians accountable. Rarely do they push that domino that will cause the rest to fall.
They won't even arrest Santos ffs.

Who knows how much money McGonigal laundered. Trump and his Russian buddies probably told him how to do it.
It's all so gross.

surfaces, against, from the ocean of human excrement.

Greg, there's a book here. And it's not novel.

Read Karel Capek's.
WAR WITH THE NEWTS and
CITY by Clifford Simak
Seems like we are living in a never ending spy movie.
Spies
Ellen, we are
"Sailing the Adriatic with a movie star."
From the old movie,
Three Days of the Condor
A still applicable film.
"About Oil"
McGonigal...just one more piece of shit high-ranking official who is corrupt. Yet, he is OUT ON BAIL! What black or brown person gets that privilege??
In the best spy movies, the low-hanging-fruit bad guy gets caught but no one really wins.
Oops?
My original comment should not have the word
Against but again

Reagan and North and others should have gone to jail for back stabbing Carter. And the guns they traded for drugs.
That was the beginning of the fascist takeover.
They all knew. Only Carter said so.

I think it’s in the hundreds of millions...just my opinion.
He seems too cheap for that, but who knows?
He may be cheap with some things but I think when it comes to buying and FBI SAC, he would be willing to spend, spend, spend. There's no way an FBI SAC is taking only $225,000 to do what he did.
