These "Judicial Watch" bozos are the same guys who claimed that ISIS had a large terror cell and training camp on the Mexican border just outside El Paso.

Right wing nutballs of the highest order. And here's tRump, calling for the FBI to turn over info to those imbeciles.

tRump is coming apart at the seams.


As the picture becomes clearer.


And THAT'S hilarious.



I'm trying hard, but I'm not seeing any point in your post. Just a bunch of puerile name-calling. Judicial Watch played a key role in breaking open the Lerner IRS scandal
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/i...arty-targeting


You know, the scandal that got a bunch of IRS employees either fired or forced to retire/resign?


Quote:
If Paz has indeed been let go, she would be the first employee fired by the IRS in connection with the targeting of conservative groups.
Others have either retired or been placed on administrative leave, including Washington lawyer Carter Hull, who has been accused of micromanaging the processing of tea-party cases, and who, according to IRS sources, requested his retirement package on March 12; Joseph Grant, the commissioner of the agency’s Tax-Exempt and Government Entities division and Lois Lerner’s boss,

Looks like your deep state buddies were outfoxed by a bunch of 'right wing nutballs.'

Everything is good south of the border. Everyone loves us. Probably some truth to the original claim but not a full fledged training camp. Liberals would have us close our eyes, cover our ears and open the borders. And let dem criminals go because they are one of them.

From your link:


Jason Michael Ludke, 35, and Yosvany Padilla-Conde, 30, were arrested Oct. 5 near San Angelo, Texas, on charges of attempting to provide support to the Islamic State, according to the documents.

A coupla Wisconsinwannabes arrested hundreds of miles from El Paso gives cover to JW's dumb ISIS training camp claim.



pull-EEZ!

And the Left is rushing around telling people that it's un-American and treasonous to question anything they do. If memory serves, the Right used to be the ones defending their honor just 15 years ago or so under George W Bush and it was just a stupid then.

I sure as hell don't trust them. Nobody should. They need a lot more oversight and a lot less unfettered power IMHO.
I trust them a lot more than I trust our president. They put their lives in danger in order to protect us. But please tell me what the massive corruption is.

They are definitely hyper partisan, almost propaganda.

Maybe you can explain how they do that by hiding documents that are exposing DOJ & FBI corruption when the docs finally get made public.
We would all be thankful if you could do that.

All the evidence will be presented at the impeachment hearings. Be patient.

An impeachment hearing is meaningless if it doesn't lead to the removal from office. You are pinning your hopes on political theater that won't solve anything and it sure won't get Trump out of office.
There will never be enough votes in the senate even with the anti-Trump GOP.

It is telling that you seem to be admitting that the Mueller hoax has the purpose of impeachment which isn't a lawful investigation purpose.

It really is time for Trump to declassify and demand the DOJ & FBI hand over records/evidence to congress too.
Trump has stayed out of it to avoid political blowback from Dems and anti Trump GOP in congress but declassifying records and providing sunlight isn't an impeachable offense.

Why isn’t the FBI giving Andrew McCabe text messages to Judicial Watch or appropriate governmental authorities. FBI said they won’t give up even one (I may have to get involved, DO NOT DESTROY). What are they hiding? McCabe wife took big campaign dollars from Hillary people.....

Judicial watch is a right wing political group, they file FOIA requests constantly, the FBI uses the same rules for responding to their requests as they do all other requests. Classified information is redacted. PS why would the FBI turn their records over to "appropriate governmental authorities"? The FBI is a governmental agency
