I guess this didn't happen either
The White House has denied that Trump ever had an affair with Daniels.
President Donald Trump seek $20 million in damages...based on an agreement that he and Mr. Cohen claim Mr. Trump never was a party to and knew nothing about?

No it is not. Bad analogy. Bush was president and the impact of his policies were clearly in effect and are still being dealt with. It is the flip side of bringing up McCain every time someone brought up factual information about Obama. Oh, right... that didn't really happen. |
No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

They are all corrupt. Keep in mind that Trump, Hillary, Bernie et al. were just more corrupt and more powerful than the rest.

"Power corrupts;" That's why we had better not give up our constitutional protections against unlimited government--because "absolute power corrupts absolutely." |

I think that's a pretty negative view of a lot of people trying to do good things. Clinton may be a bad candidate and a little aloof but I think she has good intentions. Bernie isn't corrupt, just a little wacky.
Trump? Perhaps the most corrupt POTUS we've ever had.
I don't buy the everybody does it defense either...at least the GOP is a lot better at it.

I wondered what point your NY Times/Guardian article was trying to make.
Lionel's style can be torturous, but hundreds of thousands of people don't have trouble understanding what he says. The last couple of minutes in the video wraps it up pretty clearly. The Cambridge Analytica stuff is nothing. |

Unless the inspector has something really bad on McCabe that hasn't been revealed this really looks ugly. Lifelong Republican, top career agent, key witness for an obstruction case. You do the math...

Funny thing is with this lawsuit Trump admitted he was the pseudonym on the non-disclosure. |

More of your typical insinuation.

"The odds are high that an indictment will be forthcoming for Andrew McCabe. As the ever alert Sundance of Conservative Treehouse points out, the statement on his firing by A.G. Sessions specifically noted that he "lacked candor" (the FBI's expression for lying) "under oath."
After an extensive and fair investigation and according to Department of Justice procedure, the Department's Office of the Inspector General (OIG) provided its report on allegations of misconduct by Andrew McCabe to the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR).
The FBI's OPR then reviewed the report and underlying documents and issued a disciplinary proposal recommending the dismissal of Mr. McCabe. Both the OIG and FBI OPR reports concluded that Mr. McCabe had made an unauthorized disclosure to the news media and lacked candor − including under oath − on multiple occasions." |

So the undermining of the FBI is being done by the FBI. |

If they had evidence that he should be prosecuted why wouldn't they just indict him instead of firing him?
Sessions didn't have to fire him, he was just protecting his job and some argue he did it to keep the Muller investigation going. |

because first things first.... "The FBI's OPR then reviewed the report and underlying documents and issued a disciplinary proposal recommending the dismissal of Mr. McCabe. "
