Perhaps Gabbard should have said treasonish.

Obama spox responds to allegations by Pres Trump:

“Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response. But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction. 
 
Nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes. These findings were affirmed in a 2020 report by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee, led by then-Chairman Marco Rubio.”

Ha-ha!

Distraction from?

The improving economy? The elimination of cross-border illegal alien invasion? The nullification of the Iranian nuclear weapons industry? The ending of the Congo-Rwandan conflict? The death of the global warming hoax? What! What exactly are we to be distracted from! Hahahahaha!

Even the Rosenbergs were charged with espionage, not treason, because we were not at war with the USSR.

Russiagate and the Biden/Harris machinations were appalling and as bad as treason in my eyes. But not treason legally or at least constitutionally.

Often, I believe, prosecutors will work on underlings to elicit evidence with which to corner the top-men. Possibly methods (which in view of successful outcomes) require timely development.

I don’t care who, just get the ball rolling

media covered for him ‘treason doth prosper, none dare call it treason,’ for nearly as long in the current era, the failed wannabe Guevara, Bill Ayers, was not only never convicted, part because of Mark Felt’s meticulous book keeping, but reinvented himself as a proselytizer of the faith of the progs, in Academia,he even mentored a future president,who is still lingering around, although his invocations seem to have limited effect,

one expects the Times the Post or the Journal, which were party to the fraud, will tell the truth now, we have seen the latest example with the Journal

Pravda es Istvestia,this is what the blank pages of the Corporate Press, like Granma or Xinhua, behind the Tobacco or Bamboo Curtains,

Hence, it will be a Thing in the future. “Another Russiagate!”.
If This the same as last time and last time was proven, is This a conspiracy theory?

And Trump can go around accusing the perps of this stuff day and night. Since truth is a defense, no defamation suit will stand. Could be fun.

While the statute of limitations has run on other crimes, not so “conspiracy to obstruct justice” on which they all hinge.

Obama gets off for his official acts in office, but after then? Barnes tells us that aiding and abetting furtherance of the criminal conspiracy may well fit! Since Zero kept defending his cronies after leaving the presidency.

This all reminds me of the classic lesson from Watergate. Crimes were committed that President Nixon did not know about until after the fact. The subsequent coverup, however, did leave him open to criminal conspiracy to obstruct justice.

Such a similar fate for Zero sees poetic justice to me — perhaps as THE unindicted co-conspirator?

History sure does seem to be rhyming away just now.

PS to on, Oldflyer, etc. People are simply not appreciating that we have too many Rs who’ve been weak prosecutors like Trey Gowdy.

Ho will we EVER win back our country from these EVIL doers without aggressive and effective public prosecution like Judge Jesnine?

WE here need to rethink the bidder animus that Barnes pushes because, for instance, ge measures Congressman Gaetz focused and aggressive questioning of the Three Mousekereers-types in Congressional hearings as persuasive indication of his superior criminal justice powers.

Let not the imperfect messengers be the enemy of the nation’s long suffering good.

Call me old fashioned, but for one, I hate giving money (clicks) to the evil Google/YouTube. Also I prefer reading, so I can analyze the content, rather than being swayed by fast talking. “Believe half of what you see, and none of what you hear.”

The video-makers must have scripts which could be published on the web. I wonder if narcissism plays a part as well. Many of these people’s faces and personalities don’t appeal to me; I’d just as soon not have to see and hear them.

I’d like to include a few more people, including liar Schiff.
Regarding loss of pensions: the arguments about being unprecedented, and/or “punishes the family” have always seemed like cop-outs. Intended to continue the problem of never enforcing accountability, and thus never decentivising the “deep state” recruitment.
