Yes, since BO was elected. Cannot help but notice that both Robert Mueller and James Comey held high positions in the Bush-the-Younger administration, that Peter Sztrok and Andrew McCabe entered the Bureau ca. 1995, and that the Ruby Ridge catastrophe occurred (for which no penalties were exacted) occurred in 1992. Federal law enforcement has been a latrine for some time.

@fullmoon: Any reason to imagine the investigating agents are now loyal to Trump? I'll settle for loyalty to their pensions, which I'm hoping was the rationale of the rank-and-file to ignore the corruption since Obama was elected.

@JohnTyler: Imagine if Arctic Frost was conducted by republicans during the administration of a republican president.

Point taken.

We saw something comparable with McCarthyism under Eisenhower and Watergate under Nixon. (Granted, there was more to McCarthyism and less to Watergate than how Democrats want us to remember.)

Democrats are still clapping themselves on the back for those, as though they were all righteous George Washingtons rising to those occasions.

See George Clooney’s “Good Night, and Good Luck” (2005) which recreated the drama of journalist Edward Murrow taking on Senator McCarthy.

@ fullmoon > You are correct that many investigating agents are not now and never have been loyal to Trump.
However, Patel ought to be isolating them, and fore-fronting whatever loyal patriots he can find in the FBI; presumably he had former friends and gossip channels in place to help locate them.

If all else fails, purge and replace.
It’s what all the Democrat Presidents are allowed to do without question.

I just checked the official website of the NYT. Not a word about Arctic Frost on the front page. Ergo, not worse than Watergate!

Nicolle Wallace and Steven Schmidt were the two grifters John McCain picked to run his campaign in 2008. He would have been at a disadvantage normally, all the more so when Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, AIG, Washington Mutual, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, and Wachovia were revealed to be insolvent right in the midst of the fall campaign and people were expecting Morgan Stanley to implode as well. Still, every little bit hurts.

I don’t think he can cast a ballot for Mamdani; if I’m not mistaken, he lives in NoVa (around Falls Church).

This man was an aide to George Bush the Elder. From 1995 to 2015 the four most extensively circulated opinion publications (starboard) were National Review, Human Events, The American Spectator, and The Weekly Standard. He was the editor of the last of these.

His son-in-law has for some time been editor of the Washington Free Beacon.

What’s… ironic is that Tim Pool’s live show just 2 days ago had a former prosecutor on there giving some… defenses of the system’s actions.

I am really curious now to see if any of this arctic frost revelation would change his tunes. (nothing on his twitter yet)
