Come on Flagg, it's over.
John McCain said in a street interview we should hire a special prosecutor because it's big, "and I'm sure there's more to come." on PBS NewsHour.
What's over? I'm all for appointing a special prosecutor to have 90 days to look at this. The left wants nothing more than to have an ongoing investigation with nothing official being released so they can create conspiracies everyday.
Appointing a special prosecutor to not only look at Russia, but also how our intelligence community is functioning and who leaked information is the only route to go. Both sides are pulling partisan nonsense, so a definitive "yes" or "no", there's something really here, needs to be had.
There's still zero evidence Trump colluded with Russia. We know Clinton broke the law.

I'm watching Hannity and this is literally state run propaganda. How is this any different than Putin's media?

Oh I see.
Trump gave one already. You don't accept that then?
But dude, it's pretty obvious why he fired him. Clear as day. C'mon now...
Of course I don't accept that. But I'm also intelligent enough to realize that firing Comey wouldn't have any impact on an ongoing investigation or existing evidence that is "classified" and hasn't been released to the public.
Your argument is akin to being under investigation for murder, the police already have your finger prints and DNA on the gun that killed someone, and firing the chief of police hoping it somehow goes away.

Can you guess the poster?
After Comey made his October Surprise announcement:
This won't make a difference at all, not at this point.
A criminal investigation?
I love how you guys take one snippet, redefine it, and run with it like it's some big discovery.
Such is the way of the conspiracy theorist I guess.
I've lost all faith in the Comey and it doesn't say much for the FBI itself. This is Hoover shit. They couldn't damage her with facts, so they're doing it with innuendo.
After the election:
End anchor babies. Pass everify and punish businesses that hire illegals. Keep the pre-existing condition and mandate, but open the markets across state lines. Renegotiate all trade and work with Jordan and Saudi Arabia to put boots on the ground with American air and logistical support to end ISIS. Put another Scalia on the bench. He does that, he'll be remembered like Reagan.

You don't know that, unless you're privy to the classified info no one could make public. You kept saying the same thing about the pee dossier, when it turns out there was credible info in it. Simmer down, stop telling people to move on while the investigation is still ongoing.
I'm completely calm. When there's an ounce of proof to any coordination with Russia, I'll be the first to demand action. You already clarified weeks ago your conviction stems from your gut feeling and not any actual evidence.
I'm not interested in fighting with you guys over something you'll still be certain is going to be revealed moments away, 3 years from now. Both our positions have been argued ad nauseum.
I want to know why Trump felt now was the time to fire Comey.

Consistency Mitch. The left can't call for Comey's head in November and be upset he's gone in may.
Why? Circumstances are much different. Now it appears Trump is under investigation and now that he has the power to, he fires comey inexplicably.
Trump has been under investigation since July. There's no story here. You guys have been saying for months "this is it!" and nothing happens. All the leaks at the start and no Snowden has spilled the beans.
Trump didn't work with Putin. It's time to move on.
I personally don't think Comey's comments at the senate hearing warrant any kind of reprimand, but I think he should have resigned after his letter to congress in late October.

The timing of this is very strange. I'm excited to see the faux outrage from the left after demanding he face a firing squad.

It's interesting to me that the Russian hackers didn't have the same influence on French voters as they did on our voters.
How much influence did they have? Republicans didn't give a shit about the Podesta leaks, that was all Bernie supporters. Nothing came from that people didn't already know. At some point, people are going to have to accept that Hillary never stopping in coal miner, steel worker and factory type towns, instead catering to BLM and the like cost her the election, not Russia. Russia didn't make her avoid Wisconsin, Michigan or anywhere in PA outside of Philly.
