10. What makes people think FBI Director Comey is not involved in the collusion with Russia.
Mon Mar 20, 2017, 08:43 AM
Mar 2017

After what he did to President (unsworn) Clinton, against all formal and acknowledged FBI standards, he simply has no more credibility than his owner, Trump.

Some how the Russian underworld got their claws into our national infrastructure and now we are paying the cost. That being the unraveling of our faith in our government.

No matter what Comey does at the hearings, you can bet the rigged questions and answers are already to go and will maintain the current status quo. If he doesn't outright lie he will obfuscate and deflect. Not answering a direct question seems to be the art of every slick, self serving political hack. Comey will be no different. Russia may well have something on him and he will bend to their wishes to hide and protect their attack on our election process to insert their candidate of choice.

Russia wants to become, again, the Soviet Union. To get to that condition they have to disarm NATO. Trump has already indicated he will allow the defanging of NATO. This clears Russia's path. Russia only needs a short period of indecision on the part of the West when Putin and his forces step into Western Europe. Once Putin has acquired what he wants he will see it as a done deal and only nuclear war will push him back.
