Yesterday, the story was all about Jeff Sessions lying under oath claiming he had no contact with Russia during the election. When the media uncovered 2 points of contact, the spin was —well, that was not in his capacity as a Trump advisor, it was in his role as a Senator. Unfortunately for him, his answer to Franken during his confirmation hearing was damming and taped so you can review it for yourself.
Social media and mainstream media spent the day guessing about his motive and what was discussed with Putin’s lackey, Kislyak. Why did he lie if it was an innocent meeting? The whole thing just smelled and although he recused himself from any Russian investigation the public was looking for their pound of flesh.
Today, March 4th, we awoke to a twitter storm—HEEEEEEE”S BACK. Yes, the Trump that relies on right wing websites for news, that only knows how to be on the offense (look at his tweets post Sessions fiasco–calling out Democrats who met with Putin–in the capacity of their JOBS, Donald), that cannot resist a good twitter rant, that is the world’s biggest sore loser–Really, no one is as big of a sore loser as he is–was back.
How low has President Obama gone to tapp my phones during the very sacred election process. This is Nixon/Watergate. Bad (or sick) guy!
He may have gotten this information from a right wing nut job but the interesting twist is it just may implicate him. First of all, Presidents do not order wire taps. Secondly, wire taps like this would have only been permitted with probable cause and approval. Soooooooooo… Trump, you were under a Federal investigation with probable cause. No wonder the outgoing admin tried to secure the data and information for fear of a coverup.
By confirming it publicly, Trump has also pretty much guaranteed no one can be charged for leaking the existence of this FISA warrant. Oops!
The most gratifying thing is that Trump’s demise may be directly related to a tweet.
