I’m looking forward to seeing this show. In the few commercials I’ve seen, Brendan Gleeson looks deliciously sinister; Trump will lose his nut. I’ll bet money that he makes some obnoxious comment about Gleeson’s citizenship and competence. Sad.
My only bone to pick with you Mr Olear: “FISA warrants are very, very hard to get.”
Dude.
There may have been some reform over the past 12 years, but during the Bush administration FISA courts were handing out warrants like grandma dealing out candy at bedtime just to gleefully watch the grandkids’ sugar rush. FISA courts were very friendly with the NSA, FBI, CIA, NRA, Boy Scouts of America, etc. They literally streamlined their processes so efficiently that I believe there was an gigantic rubber stamp on Dick Cheney’s desk, hot-wired to his mouth.
Otherwise, spot on. As we say in Massachusetts, Go Sox!
I hope it’s entertaining and effective in portraying all the creeps as hideously as they deserve for handing us over to Putin. Of all the terrors I’ve lived through (b. 1951), all the real and nightmare fantasies of my lifetime, all the horror movie scenarios, international conflicts, societal upheavals, tragedies, deaths and threats, the trump era is the most frightening of all with its republican enabling and devoted walking dead zombie voters. I fear the past 4 years was the intermission. What’s coming will be the final chapter for many.
Ok, but that motherfucker should put himself out of our misery. I thought then surely he’s linked to the Russians, too. 2016 was his fault as much as theirs.
There’s got to be a special place for those people who, like the film critic, miss the point entirely...this is so for all of the voters who supported Sanders with his blowhard, pointing finger way.. that anyone can be bribed into doing what seems to be a good idea but doesn’t understand the underlying menace. In this both Comey and Sanders were susceptible to the Russian subterfuge.
