We went through this already with his wiretapping accusations last year and nothing happened then, I doubt something will be done about these comments beyond filling some air time in talk shows for a few days.

Turd, we will make a deal. You jump off from your tower, and we won't prosecute you as traitor of American people.

After I read this I imagined Obama scaling Trump tower with suction cups and a stethoscope to sit outside Trump office window lol

He used those gloves from that Mission Impossible movie.

Maybe he should've done some extreme vetting of his campaign staff if it's true!

The scary thought is roughly 40% of the county will take his word as gospel, no evidence necessary, Mouth of Trump=Straight facts.

Is he talking about Glenn Simpson's Senate testimony back in August?

Simpson surmised that the FBI had a 'source' inside the Trump campaign - that's not an embedded informant or double agent, that's just someone with access and knowledge willing to talk to the FBI.

Guess the nuance will be lost on paranoid Trumpists and Trump himself but in intelligence world, that's not remotely what POTUS thinks it is.

Now now, "imbedded" is a perfectly legitimate, but uncommon, spelling of "embedded". In, like, real analysis or topology or something.

But yeah, shut the fuck up already with your nonsense, Trump. Like, when can he just fuck off already?

I think he's talking about Felix Sater, but then it's weird that he's making a stink about it now as news about him being an informant for the U.S. Government is kind of old news at this point. So he may be talking about someone else? I wonder if it's Carter Page? He's always come across as really weird.

On Sater from the Buzzfeed News article I linked earlier:

When Trump won the presidency, Sater saw an opportunity to do what he does best: make deals. But his ambition backfired, putting Sater in the middle of the Trump-Russia scandal.

In early 2017, Sater told BuzzFeed News he was trying to close a deal with a Ukrainian politician and others on an energy deal in Eastern Europe. Sater estimated he and his partners could earn billions. But as they closed in, the Ukrainian, Andrey Artemenko, asked Sater for a favor: Could he broker a meeting with Trump's team to discuss a "peace plan" for Ukraine and Russia?

The deal, which Sater said set out a way to lift sanctions on Russia, surely would have pleased the Kremlin, but it would have been a sharp departure from previous US policy. Still, Sater summoned Trump's personal lawyer, Cohen, to a Midtown Manhattan hotel in February 2017, and Artemenko gave him a letter about the plan. Cohen has denied passing the plan to the White House and told BuzzFeed News he threw it out.

I don't really get why this would be "bigger than Watergate" even if the FBI had an informant.
All that really says to me is that they inserted someone in your campaign because you were doing something they thought was illegal and needed closer examination.

Mission Impossible stuff is child's play or have you ever seen them carrying a microwave while scaling anything?
True. Obama probably has access to molecular transferring devices that warps material from point A to B. Thats how he got those microwaves into trumps personal bathroom (so he can reheat those mcdonald's burgers while sitting on the throne, tweeting).

Obama, you sly devil! You did it again!

Why would he need an informant when he already wiretapped Trump?

Keep your story straight Donald.

This probably means Trump had spies in Hillary's camp. As usual just replace his accusations and project it back to him.

Move along, nothing to see here.

This must've been a bad week for Trump. Would be a shame if something else came out tomorrow.

Devin Nunes was on Fox the other night saying that the FBI investigating the Trump campaign in 2016 was the basically the biggest political scandal ever.



I imagine when the dust settles on Cohen in a week we'll get the next round of talking points - that the leak is worse than the crime.

For a guy that loves to scream "DIS IS BIGGER DEN WATERGATE!!!" every week or so, I'm sure he couldn't even write up a paragraph explaining what "Watergate" even is or means.

I see the words "trump accuses" and a deluge of pathetic Republican fact denial and dipshit Kremlin propaganda precludes me from attempting to process whatever bullshit comes next.
