So, how can you possibly say that the Investigation (Mueller's focus) was not on Trump's campaign?

BTW - you did not respond to my first two questions.
The dossier was not the basis for the investigation, besides it was renewed several times under Sessions, different judges, NSA, FBI, DIA heads. Then there is the fact that under a prior warrant Page actually ked them to Russian spies back in 2013 so he does have a history, I don't see how they spied on Trumops family since he left the campaign around September 2016 and had no position under Trumo.


The Russians began to impact the election in summer in 2016 under Obama, but they agencies didn't realize the real impact of their actions until late summer early fall. So yes Obama was president but I don't expect there was much he could do in September 2016 other than expel diplomats. But if you want to cast blame you need t to include the senate and house intel committees that received the same briefings.

Our biggest threat is media. They are not presenting objective news. They are not presenting ALL the facts about something. They are cherry picking and leading people down the wrong path.
Questionable media has existed for decades, even centuries. Remember the term "yellow journalism"? Even Benjamin Franklin practiced it. It's not a threat to our democracy; instead, journalism is an important component for maintaining our freedom of expression. It's up to you and everybody to look at multiple points of view and then decide. This is still available to all, despite the politicians best efforts to suppress it and the Russians to obfuscate it. Just look at different, respected news sources, then sew the information together to form a more complete picture.

The vast majority of Fake News ("media") today are all about pushing a left-wing agenda (communism).


I would absolutely classify the vast majority of them enemies of the people.

You should have just stopped at Sessions!

We are exactly where we are because of that ineffective, impotent, slimeball!

Rice told them all to "stand down" so they did nothing. The Obama administration was first notified of this in 2015.

4 years and no one has PROVEN that Trump committed any crimes.
No one has even ALLEGED that he committed any crimes in the sense of a specific action constituting a specific crime.

And yet they are focused on Mueller saying he isn't exonerated.
Exonerated from what ? That question they cannot answer.

We do have Schiff who says he has proof but hasn't shown it in 4 years.

He was probably the only person that that both sides would approve of to have his name on the investigation. The fact that his mental capacity has diminished greatly the past few years was not important. The DEMS pushed the issue of him speaking in public and we see the results of that.
