    November looks interesting, no matter how the election goes.

    Well, for starters, the Daily Caller piece definitively says Halper spied on the Trump campaign. That assertion may be false. Also, Marco Rubio even said the Trump campaigns wasn't spied upon.

    "Spygate," the false allegation that the FBI had a spy in the Trump campaign, explained

    No less than 11 former CIA directors think the Brennan matter is an indefensible abuse of presidential power, all things considered. Your boy is 1 on 11 here.

    Yeah, like the CIA and others in the intelligence community have done such a brilliant fuckin' job (sorry for the profanity, tinytaters) over the past 20 years.

    I think the Brennan thing is one thing that could absolutley find its way into an article of impeachment. The President pulled the clearance of a former official, something designed to improve our national intelligence gathering,and analysis - out of personal pique.


    Also - that Manafort case smells bad. I think I would almost settle for a mistrial at this point, with a different judge the next time hopefully.

    The President has purged the FBI of the ranking officials who started the Trump/Russia investigation. He has openly said that he fired Comey of it, as well as saying that he pulled Brennan's clearance over it. He's made hundreds of tweets.

    Now add whatever documents, emails, recordings, and testimony Mueller has in his drawer. He's got a lot of bullets. An obstruction case is probably makeable.

    Things are so far from normal that I have no certainty though.
