The MSM ARE the LEFTIST turds. They are the frontline troops leading the attempted destruction of our country. The politicians are merely working in the background.

Didn't FBI agents watch Carter Page and his wife have sex and go to the toilet for 18 months?
I knew a gunsmith investigated by the ATF in the 1980s. They gathered and inch thick stack of transcripts of his wife talking to his mother in law on the phone.
Just imagine typing up the transcript from Carter Page's bathroom.

The Mueller Cover Up by Kimberly Strassel
In hindsight, the FBI’s Russia-collusion scandal always had two parts: the bureau’s indefensible probe of the Trump campaign and the coverup—the investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller.
That the latter probe was a coverup came into sharp relief this week with the Justice Department’s belated withdrawal of its case against former national security adviser Mike Flynn and the release of former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s “scope” memo. Both demonstrate that Mr. Mueller was named not to get to the bottom of Russia-related crimes but to legitimize the illegitimate decisions the FBI and Justice had made to that point, to squeeze “something” out of its disastrous escapade.
Mr. Rosenstein initially didn’t limit Mr. Mueller’s investigation to real crimes. His original May 2017 appointment letter gave the special counsel carte blanche to look into “any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump.” When he detailed the “scope” of Mr. Mueller’s duties in an Aug. 2, 2017, memo, the government guarded the document like Fort Knox—refusing to let even Congress view it. We now know why. The memo authorized the Mueller team to investigate a series of already debunked theories and noncrimes.
The Jobs Report, Tara Reade and Michael Flynn
SUBSCRIBE Take the section that allows Mr. Mueller to investigate former Trump campaign members Carter Page and Paul Manafort for “a crime or crimes by colluding with Russian government officials.” Every “collusion” allegation the FBI had about these two men came directly from the Steele dossier, paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign. By August 2017, the FBI knew that dossier was bunk.
According to Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, the FBI knew by January 2017 that the dossier’s primary Russian source had disavowed the allegations and the FBI had failed to validate a single claim. Colleagues of author Christopher Steele had warned the FBI of his poor judgment. As was revealed only last month, the FBI had also been warned several times that the dossier might itself be Russian disinformation.
The FBI obtained a surveillance warrant on Mr. Page in October 2016 and renewed it three times. The Justice Department earlier this year admitted to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that the last two of those applications—which spanned Mr. Mueller’s appointment and the scoping memo—should never have been filed, since the government lacked “probable cause.” That’s an admission the government had nothing on Mr. Page even as Mr. Rosenstein was telling Mr. Mueller to go at him.
Mr. Mueller was meanwhile authorized to dive deep into unrelated “crimes”: Manafort financial activities that took place years before the Trump campaign, Mr. Flynn’s supposed lies, Mr. Flynn’s and George Papadopoulos’s ties with, respectively, Turkey and Israel. Russia, anyone?
Most revealing is Mr. Mueller’s authority to investigate abuses of ancient or rarely enforced laws. He was authorized to probe the potential “crime” of Mr. Flynn “engaging in conversations with Russian government officials during the period of the Trump transition.” This is a reference to the Logan Act of 1799, a law that has never been used to convict an American. He was also tasked with investigating whether that foreign work by Messrs. Flynn and Papadopoulos violated the rarely enforced Foreign Agents Registration Act.
Prosecutors admitted in the Flynn withdrawal filing that the department concluded in early 2017 that a Logan Act claim would be too “difficult to prosecute.” The FBI had moved to close its counterintelligence investigation into Mr. Flynn by January 2017, having found nothing on “collusion.” And the filing notes FBI interviewing agents felt Mr. Flynn hadn’t lied or didn’t think he was lying. So why on earth was Mr. Mueller allowed to go to town on Logan Act and lying charges?
The tip-off is the FARA references. No one in the Beltway had thought about that statute until Mr. Mueller’s investigators resurrected it. The inclusion leads one to suspect it wasn’t Mr. Rosenstein writing this memo. It was the Mueller team dictating—demanding wider scope and new authority in order to get something, anything, out of this endeavor.
They weren’t getting any Russia “collusion” charges. That was clear by the spring of 2017, and former FBI Director James Comey knew it would soon emerge that his bureau had made egregious errors. So he leaked his memo of conversations with Mr. Trump with the specific goal of getting a special counsel appointed. The Mueller probe—led by the very people who’d made those errors—then spent more than two years “investigating” bogus or derivative claims, keeping secrets, and giving the escapade a fiction of legitimacy.
Mr. Flynn got justice on Thursday, but there will be no broader reckoning until we see the full record. That means not only FBI and Justice Department documents but full transparency and a review of the Mueller probe itself. The nation got taken for a ride, and it continued with the special counsel behind the wheel.
