For years, President Donald Trump and his supporters have warned about a Deep State conspiracy that has worked against the White House.
Career bureaucrats, furious at the president for beating their preferred candidate Hillary Clinton, used their power to conspire against Trump and his administration. These anti-Trump agents were even caught on camera admitting they intentionally undermine the president’s every move and said they worked to “resist everything.”
So is it any surprise that the FBI launched an investigation into Trump in retaliation for the firing of James Comey?
Either way, it doesn’t make The New York Times reveal this weekend any less disturbing. The Times wrote that an investigation into President Donald Trump was launched by FBI agents in May 2017, shortly after Comey was fired.
The suspicion? The President of the United States was working against American interests… because he fired their friend.
A shining example of the naked corruption that has taken root deep in our nation’s most treasured institutions is unacceptable, critics said.
“The FBI’s probe constituted an egregious abuse of power,’ Fox News’ Gregg Jarrett wrote Monday. “The Bureau had no probable cause, no evidence, and no reasonable suspicions. They investigated Trump because they could. They defied the law, ignored or perverted facts, and debased the integrity of a heretofore-respected law enforcement agency.”
Trump on Monday denied he ever worked for Russia against U.S. interests, addressing an absurd question that has left the mainstream media in a frenzy.
Speaking from the South Lawn, Trump issued a flat denial: “I never worked for Russia.” He blasted former FBI and Justice Department officials and repeated his claim that the investigation into his ties to Moscow is a hoax.
Over the weekend, Trump said The Times’ piece was “the most insulting article I’ve ever had written [about me], and if you read the article you’ll see that they found absolutely nothing,” he said.
Trump went on to assert that no president has taken a harder stance against Russia than he has.
“If you ask the folks in Russia, I’ve been tougher on Russia than anybody else, any other … probably any other president, period, but certainly the last three or four presidents,” he said.
On Monday, Trump also defended his decision to fire FBI Director James Comey, a move that has drawn Mueller’s scrutiny. Trump called the Russia probe “a whole big fat hoax.”
