@RealUnsweetDee This is the most ridiculous thing I've read today.
But never mind that, where can I get that car!

Like most of the replies here I greatly admire your current and recent work, but this is an issue that until you do a serious deep dive - the sort that would require quite literally months of intense study - you're just not ready to make the claims you're making.
Rest assured you'll feel very differently if you do carry out such a deep dive. A great place to start would be soliciting the input of that very well known "corner" of this platform who forget more about it in a day than most everyone else will ever know about it in a lifetime.

@DataRepublican If they had been well intentioned and just made mistakes they would've owned up to it years ago and begged for forgiveness. The exact opposite has been the case, which is just one more to add to the previous thousands of nails in the coffin of their bs accusations.

@DataRepublican The problem wasn't just that they were wrong. Even when they obtained information that showed that they were wrong, it was concealed. FBI in particular.

~ Nope, have to disagree. By January they had heard from Danchenko that it was all BS. Should have dropped it there. Or maybe after the first Carter Page FISA came up dry. Oh, & when Clinesmith found out that Page had been a source for the CIA & was helping them catch Russians. ~

Wrong on purpose. The exact same people bent over backwards and bent/broke every rule in the book to cover up for Hillary before and during Spygate. Then they deliberately created, planned, timed and coordinated a leak-a-thon regarding an IC “assessment” with a bogus addendum to hit the airwaves within minutes of Comey’s congressional testimony on 1/10/17, all aimed at hobbling an incoming elected President. This is totally well documented by many people. Myself included.

@DataRepublican That's one perspective. But if you look closely at the data points they say, they are transparently fictitious such that a clear observer can easily determine they were so much BS, that the explanation you posit above doesn't hold water.

Ok, I'm apparently not good at writing parables, because nearly everyone interpreted it wrong.
I used a parable because I want to respect others' service records, especially when not all the facts are out yet.
So let's pivot to a much more direct analogy.
In 2016, career intelligence professionals, people who had genuinely spent their lives fighting America's enemies, became convinced that a foreign power had compromised the incoming president. They had data points. Real ones. Trump had business dealings in Moscow. He said nice things about Putin on camera. People in his orbit had meetings with Russian nationals. A dossier appeared with salacious claims. Each data point individually was... a data point.
But they were looking for Russia. So they found Russia. Everywhere.
They were so certain they were right that they leaked to the press. They used classification authority to spy on American citizens. They presented unverified opposition research to a FISA court as intelligence. Peter Strzok texted about "insurance policies." Andrew McCabe authorized leaks.
They were experienced professionals who genuinely believed the republic was in danger. Their service records were real. Their concern was sincere.
And they were wrong.

I'm a Smurf. I've been hired to run counter-intelligence operations at Smurf Village. My role is political; I've personally gone up against the evil wizard Gargamel. But once I'm on the inside, I discover that Smurf Village has a relationship with a goat-riding human boy called Peewit. Peewit isn't a Smurf. He's caused a lot of damage with his antics over the years. Why is he even here? I start digging. I pull up Papa Smurf's history with Peewit. Papa Smurf has been collaborating with this kid for years. Protecting him. Making excuses for him. Why? Peewit is reckless. Peewit makes messes. But Papa Smurf keeps letting him back in. The more I dig, the more Peewit I find. He's everywhere. In every file, behind every favor, connected to every mess. A picture forms in my head: if I'm looking for Peewit everywhere and I keep finding Peewit, the only logical conclusion is that Peewit is the one controlling Papa Smurf. Then a prominent Smurf gets assassinated. They say Gargamel's people did it. Case closed, move along. But I get access to the dead Smurf's private messages. And there's Peewit. Right there in the chats. The same Peewit I've been laser-focused on all year. Pressuring him. Making demands. I bring this to Papa Smurf and his inner circle. I bring it with alarm. Papa Smurf looks at me funny. And then — just like that — I'm kicked out of the investigation. No explanation. Just... out. This is the final proof that Peewit is controlling the Smurf Village. I know what I saw. I have to get the truth out there. So I do the unthinkable. I leak the information.

No matter how many times the "classical liberal" types say that we should never use political power to do anything, the truth is that without doing something with teeth, nothing will be done.

In red states at least universities will have to be compelled to hire conservatives using funding as punishment if they don't comply. In general, red states need to be much more willing to use state power to govern public institutions, which is what state universities are.

So, is it just me or...
I'm looking at my sleeping newborn in my arms, and then I also think I hear her crying in another room.
What kind of mental asylum bullshit is this?!
