  1. @Poindexter I was just asking my buddy about the correct use of that word and he said you are probably a big fan of JonTron?

    Never heard of JonTron. Were you asking me about the Jewish State in Occupied Palestine?

  4. Well @JSOP says he is Jewish and from NYC. It was mentioned that saying you are Jewish on the site is the new 'my black friend says'... JSOP is quite an odd person, here to troll and argue like yourself but calling for the murder of Stormy and such.

    Is he an anti-zionist Jew, an arab pretending to be a Jew or batshit do you recon?

    I've only seen a few of JSOP's posts so can't say, but will keep an eye out and let you know if I see enough to form an opinion.

  7. Where "everyone" = "you"

    McCabe was brought down by an independent Inspector General. The same one who was appointed by Obama and worked under Holder and Loretta although- the statute makes him equally answerable to Congress.

    There is a lot of entertainment value in watching you and others suddenly arguing that independent investigators are witch hunters when one of their own is hit.

    And yes, Sessions is gone as soon as Trump can dump him without causing more heartburn than it relieves. As it should be.

    But don't kid yourself, even though it is causing the lefties to foam at the mouth and is making the rest of the swamp in DC fear for their futures, this firing and the other stuff that the IG has on McCabe, Strzo, Page, Weisman, Orff, etc is enormously helpful to Trump if Mueller tries to go after him for obstruction- which the pussy won't- it will be all about Jared and Trumps taxes or condo deals in Crapistan.

    That 14 day rule you cited is just something you pulled out of your arse. They fired him yesterday. They will get around to the criminal charges when they get around to them, just as Mueller operates. He might indict someone tomorrow, or it might be years.

    Hang in there, Bro. We know it hurts.

  8. Ahhh yes. Preet Bhahara.

    Howz his lawsuit to get his job back or compensation for being fired coming along?

    He is the scumbag who tried to shake Trump down to keep his job by going to Trump Towers to discuss his job with Trump all while making it known that his office had Trump under investigation for "various matters" that could suddenly turn into indictments if things did not go his way.

    I don't believe (based on current news reports) that the Inspector General has anything on McCabe that rises to a level of a fireable offense. I expect that upcoming information put out into the media (via court filings, etc.) will support this assertion.

    If the I.G. did have evidence that McCabe did take objectionable actions rising to a level requiring termination then I would expect the following:
    1. The objectionable actions are clearly outlined in the termination announcement like they are for other FBI agents.
    2. The announcement included a statement from the I.G. Office of Professional Responsibility supporting the termination.
    3. That criminal charges or criminal referral were announced around the time of the termination.
    Since none of the above happened, any reasonable person can only assume this is a political witch hunt -- especially when Sessions makes the announcement at 10pm on Friday night -- hours before McCabe's retirement.

    I would be the first person who would want McCabe locked up for a lengthy prison sentence (and fired) if they had proof that he did something wrong. The problem is that they have no proof or weak proof. Proof so minor that they can't even find anything appropriate to include in the firing announcement.

    McCabe has memos documenting his conversations with Trump
    https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/17/politics/mccabe-memos-trump/index.html

    Much like fired FBI Director James Comey, former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe wrote memos documenting his conversations with President Donald Trump before he was fired Friday, a source with knowledge of the matter told CNN.


    Following his firing, McCabe told CNN in an interview that he spoke to the President several times while he was acting FBI director in May after Comey's dismissal, and Trump berated him about his wife's failed state Senate campaign.

    Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired McCabe on Friday, about a day before his 50th birthday and the date he was set to retire and begin receiving his anticipated pension, over accusations that McCabe directed FBI officials to speak to the media about an investigation tied to the Clinton Foundation and misled investigators about his actions.
