....the FBI made a point of informing the American public today about Reince’s actions, which appear to have been illegal. By publicly ratting Priebus out over the matter, it appears the FBI is laying the groundwork for whatever action it intends to take against him next.

COVER UP: Tricky Trump Tried To Bully FBI Into Denying Russia Stories (Updated)

In the ongoing saga of Trump and his deep ties to Russia, a new wrinkle. According to CNN, the White House tried to put the kibosh on stories published last week concerning evidence that there were in fact ongoing communications between Trump's associates and Russia during the 2016 presidential campaign.

This is, in the words of former VP Joe Biden, a big fcking deal.


CNN has interviewed "multiple federal officials," and found that "the FBI rejected a recent White House request to publicly knock down media reports about communications between Donald Trump's associates and Russians known to US intelligence during the 2016 presidential campaign."

Now why would they worry about that, again? Oh, perhaps because it's true?

The discussions between the White House and the bureau began with FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe and White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus on the sidelines of a separate White House meeting the day after the stories were published, according to a U.S. law enforcement official. A White House official disputes that account, saying that McCabe called Priebus early that morning and said The New York Times story vastly overstates what the FBI knows about the contacts. The White House official said that Priebus later reached out again to McCabe and to FBI Director James Comey asking for the FBI to at least talk to reporters on background to dispute the stories. A law enforcement official says McCabe didn't discuss aspects of the case but wouldn't say exactly what McCabe told Priebus.

Comey rejected the request for the FBI to comment on the stories, according to sources, because the alleged communications between Trump associates and Russians known to US intelligence are the subject of an ongoing investigation.

Assume that if Reince Preibus is denying it, it's 100 percent true, because that's how this White House rolls. Start to end. As for Comey, he has sort of an interesting standard when it comes to commenting on investigations. Just ask Hillary Clinton about that. But maybe he learned his lesson from his "October Surprise," and has decided mum's the word going forward.

1. Sadly these traitors will need

to be caught on film in front of a 1000 eye witnesses holding a bloody knife over the dead body giving a confession with their lawyers on live tv before anything is done. Even then ?
