Clintonista Mark Penn: Mueller Probe Exposed ‐ and the ‘Deep State' Is Flailing
2018-05-21
[Breitbart and The Hill] Mark Penn ‐ Hillary Clinton’s chief strategist during her 2008 presidential campaign who has served the Clinton family since the mid-90s ‐ lowers the boom on Robert Mueller, Rod Rosenstein, Christopher Steele, the Clinton Foundation, and the intelligence community’s "deep state," laying out the absurdity and the danger of the Obama administration’s abuse of surveillance and law enforcement against political enemies. 4

From The Hill:

The "deep state" is in a deep state of desperation. With little time left before the Justice Department inspector general’s report becomes public, and with special counsel Robert Mueller having failed to bring down Donald Trump after a year of trying, they know a reckoning is coming.

At this point, there is little doubt that the highest echelons of the FBI and the Justice Department broke their own rules to end the Hillary Clinton "matter," but we can expect the inspector general to document what was done or, more pointedly, not done. It is hard to see how a year-long investigation of this won’t come down hard on former FBI Director James Comey and perhaps even former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who definitely wasn’t playing mahjong in a secret "no aides allowed" meeting with former President Clinton on a Phoenix airport tarmac.

With this report on the way and congressional investigators beginning to zero in on the lack of hard, verified evidence for starting the Trump probe, current and former intelligence and Justice Department officials are dumping everything they can think of to save their reputations.

#2  ^^^ Trump is rumored to carry heat. I don't doubt that he would defend himself. And, I think he still has his own personal security, I'd bet they have a list of possible threats.

#1  When they start turning on each other, you'll know Trump has won. IF this happens. Honestly I expect an assassination attempt. They certainly have the capability. All they need is a single corrupt or comprimised person in the WH and it's all over.
