Corey Lewandowski tweets the NYT story about the Manafort/Russia connection:

I have a black background with a white font. It is easier for my eyes to read. It automatically changes the standard black on white to white on black. The section you quoted before, shows as blue, with some black interspersed. This is impossible for me to read. An earlier post of yours where you quoted from somewhere off site also showed in those colors. Something added a blue and a black tag to those quotes, if it wasn’t you, then my apologies.

James Woolsey got it right tonight when he said press sort of jumped the gun on this story.

especially since FBI just entered into agreement w/ National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine in June… plus USA gov is funding it.

FBI leak to NYT ??

The white font was not nice, hulka. Especially coming after your overly-aggressive post, it sounded like “Ooh, Mr. Fussy doesn’t like blue. Well, how about invisible? How d’ya like that?”

just feeling a bit cranky after 21 hours of watching lying liars lie all over the place on cnn/msnbc. how do those aggressively obnoxious crooks shave themselves every day?

I could be like trump and end it there, but…

sorry evrubudduh…will play nice forever

Oh, and Woolsey… he’s one of the creepiest, biggest liars around.

here; take your pick. aside from the wingnut sites, you can drink your fill of his lies, distortions, and misstatements, which he accomplished quite well on cnn, when he wasn’t just blathering meandering, irrelevant platitudes. I was about to say he’s seen better days, but that would be inaccurate, as I don’t think he’s ever seen a good one yet.

oh, and Rachel maddow is talking about putin’s buddy right now. she did a great job filling in the cracks that Woolsey so clumsily tried to drive in the “press release” he kept calling the Times story. what an ass

Comey’s FBI only leaks to the likes of Trey Gowdy these days, and is only too happy to provide the BS 302 summaries that can be made up out of whole cloth. he’s giving them, in lieu of transcripts or recordings to the Benghazi boys to do with what they will. this includes no public release, in order that NO CONTEXT can be provided.

for those that don’t know, Comey cut his teeth as one of the chief investigators in the Whitewater case

he’s one of the original Fools for Scandal perpetrators, and he’s never gotten rid of his H-O for the Clintons.

moving right along, the REAL email scandal was how he misused his office in the most unseemly manner, then had to walk much of his BS back at the hearings, when he was forced to admit that out of the two THOUSAND emails, only two or three could even plausibly be considered secret, and those two were mismarked.

you want the details? here are a few more…1900 of those were upclassified AFTER the fact. the remaining 110 or so were NOT MARKED at all. the remaining ones had little ‘c’ marks down in the body. classification marks are always supposed to be marked at the top, so that proper care is given

unbelievable what happens when you keep right wing maniacs on board from a previous admin, which just happened to be the worst in history.

Obama very badly needs to fire his unethical ass as soon as the election is over…screw his 10 year appointment

hulka -all that in 2 posts above … w/ no mention of NABU. ?

And he noted those contained information that was clearly of a classified nature despite not being marked.

comey said a lot of things that didn’t add up, and was forced to admit it during his testimony to at least two democratic members of the inquisitorial board.

if that stuff was so clearly classified, he should have indicted her; that was his entire mission. he knew he couldn’t legally go there, so he decided to smear her instead.

he knew his editorializing without indicting was unethical for any prosecutor. it almost never happens in the real world; only in a magical reality, in which a highly politicized operative with a 20+ year obsession couldn’t resist sticking a dagger where it never should have been unsheathed in the first place. he violated his own departmental guidelines in the bargain:

he either should have indicted or stfu…that’s the way it works

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/james-comeys-abuse-of-power/2016/07/06/7799d39e-4392-11e6-8856-f26de2537a9d_story.html?utm_term=.4612375d09de

this entire editorial needs to be read, on a widespread basis, because this ridiculous untrustworthy meme, heavily finance for over two decades, and put into action by the likes of Comey and his ilk, have completely skewed the public consciousness regarding the clinons. why on earth, despite the most base intentions of their adversaries, has NOTHING ever come of all these spurious investigations? how many Benghazi hearings, lasting longer than 911, JFK, Iran Contra, you name it?

and if she wins, how long before they begin impeachment hearings? somebody ought to do a poll similar to the one here regarding Trump’s pulling out.

but I digress…this is beyond infuriating

OK…if you haven’t read this, give it a go. it’s long, but it sets the tone regarding what has been done over the last 20 years:

gee, now doesn’t that sound eerily familiar…sort of a template, perhaps, for all that has followed, culminating in Comey? he really needs to be fired. that’s the first official act she should perfom as president.

watch the discussion:

No. Mishandling classified documents is (unfortunately) incredibly common in military and government. If every instance resulted in an indictment, a very large percentage (and possibly a majority) of the people I served with in the military and in civilian government afterwards would have been prosecuted. In my 15 years of military and government experience, it’s only prosecuted when done for spying, for profit, or to help a journalist. I’ve never heard of anyone prosecuted for mishandling classified documents out of laziness or carelessness – they’re retrained, or if it’s a habit, they’re fired, but not prosecuted. That’s why the motive was so important for this case, and there was never any reason to believe that any document mishandling among Clinton or her team was for any reason other than laziness or carelessness.

At my office, when there are mishandled documents resulting in a security violation, we don’t get our free cookies that month. No other ramifications.

Dude, that is clearly cruel and inhuman punishment!

Hulka,

Enough with the text colors. It’s annoying and presents some other posters problems. Knock it off.

The one thing I don’t get about this whole thing, why is Lewandowski retweeting this? All accounts are that he still supports Trump, he must know that this would make him look bad. Is he so delusional that he thinks he can smear the guy’s campaign manager and then get hired back in case he resigns?

Bumping for some breaking news.

In any normal campaign Manafort would be out on his ass in no time flat. We’ll see what happens.

But maybe he’ll star in a spinoff of The Americans called The Ukranians.

hhhmmm… Podesta Group … that would be John Podesta’s firm.
he’s Hillary’s head honcho fixer.
goes back to Willie’s yrs as potus.

Manafort resigned.

Dun-dun-DUN!
