In interview with Rachel Maddow the other night, Peter Strzok said the Gang of Eight was advised...

..of the counter-intelligence investigation of Donald Trump and no one objected.

They all knew then what was going on.

But, since then, they seem to have forgotten why General Flynn pleaded guilty?

There was sufficient reason to investigate the Russian influence in our election and whether or not Donald Trump had been compromised.

It was a great failure of politics and the Republican Party that it did not happen.

Donald Trump has been compromised from Day 1.

2. I try to keep informed but I had to look up 'Gang of Eight.'

Under the "gang of eight" system, the executive branch of the United States discloses highly sensitive intelligence information to the following members of Congress:[6]

United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence:
Adam Schiff (D-CA-28), Chair
Devin Nunes (R-CA-22), Ranking Member

United States Senate Select Committee on Intelligence:
Marco Rubio (R-FL), Acting Chair[7]
Mark Warner (D-VA), Vice Chair

Leadership in the United States House of Representatives:
Nancy Pelosi (D-CA-12), Speaker of the House
Kevin McCarthy (R-CA-23), Minority Leader

Leadership in the United States Senate:
Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Majority Leader
Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Minority Leader

4. He specifically pointed out Republican names from back then like he was giving a clue...

About who to start looking at, like a breadcrumb trail to follow... Like he was trying to telegraph something he could not say.

5. Lest we forget, the Republicans were in charge of House and Senate at that time..

It was the Republicans that appointed Robert Mueller to investigate.

Unfortunately, he never got around to investigating any counter-intelligence matters, only those that might be considered "criminal".

The FBI was in such chaos at that time, with the firings of Comey and McCabe, that they did not realize that Rosenstein had called off the counter-intelligence investigation.

So, up to this minute, Trump and his Russian connections have never been investigated.

3. This was when Nunes began his shenanigans of informing the White House of the intelligence...

He betrayed his oath to the Committee and his country. A real loser.
