Six years of excrement we have to put up with. I noticed earlier that Brennan was quiet. FDR appointed a Republican as head of the OSS. FDR and Donovan had graduate form the same law school, and their terms there had overlapped. They were both in NY politics and so knew each other. It worked out.
How did hyper-partisan Brennan work out for the American people? Brennan said one thing one the talk show circuit and another to the grand jury. In addition he was the beck and call of the Obama mal-administration.
6 years of excrement. How will the cabalists behind front guy Joe stonewall Durham?
Maybe the cabalists are hoping Danchenko flees, so they can blame the Russians and have the prosecution fall apart due to lack of witnesses and the Dems get away scot free. In which case they the will dump on Trump and the Russian like they have for the past 6 years.
Betca he runs to Russia
