Although spying is quite common in both politics and industry, it's absolutely required and in deed, highly advisable when it's suspected that in the political arena, an American presidential candidate is conspiring with an adversarial foreign government...

The ops link is from the opinion section of the paper. As for patriots? i question just how patriotic the right is when they portray half their fellow Americans as the enemy.

"...The former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations reportedly requested to unmask over 260 Americans in her last year in office with no explanation.
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. Department of State for “unmasking” and other records tied to Obama’s United Nations Ambassador Samantha Power relating to the ongoing investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:18-cv-00300)). Unmasking refers generally to the practice of political appointees obtaining the identities of American citizens referenced in intelligence surveillance of foreign nationals..." (cont)

Yeah, nobody cares.

If you look into the history of the FBI, even going back to when they were first created, they were extremely corrupt and shady. They were never a real credible agency when it came to morals/ethics. Its likely MUCH MUCH worse today.

Again, the only actual proof of anyone colluding with an adversarial foreign government is the dossier paid for by the Clinton campaign.

It's clearly why the corrupt DOJ and Intel won't give congress the documents they need, and those they get are ridiculously redacted. So much incriminating material in those docs which they all thought Clinton would be president and no problem with their corruption.....

Hoover for his faults, believed in following the letter of the law, and used his power against both parties, not just one.

Why didn't Obama do more to stop Russian meddling and tell us it was impossible? Because he was meddling himself - and not just in foreign countries?

That is a very good question/point the "investigative journalists" have been reluctant to delve into.

The fact all this happened on his watch seems to elude the liberals with TDS, but who want to go with the false narrative of Russian collusion to excuse their horrible candidate. Yet is all supposedly happened on the watch of Obama & Co.

Needless to say there is no way to fit that square peg into a round hole.
