Police officer: Sir, you were speeding
Me: Oh no, officer. I could never do that. It's against the law.
Which is what makes mesocosm's claims about the spying beyond absurd to me. But he's just like every other lib out there.

I think the original plan was to destroy him after he lost, so he would never consider running again. The plan never contemplated him winningGCP12 said:This is always funny to me. Obama spied on journalists, foreign leaders and all other kinds of people. People that, in reality, did not have a real chance of stopping Obama. But, it's crazy to think he'd spy on the one guy who could completely destroy his legacy in under two years.

Obama cared zero about the process or the law. He was running his own personal kingdom any way he liked and to heck with the law. He used the federal agencies and staff like his own personal servants, and enforced/ignored laws at his whim depending on whether or not they advanced his agenda. He knew the Republicans were neutered and afraid of him and were not about to challenge him on anything. And he knew the courts would either side with him, or he likely had dirty laundry on many of the judges so he could quietly force them to do his bidding. Amazing the control you can attain with the the power of the entire federal establishment at your fingertips.Rapier108 said:At the rate this is going, would not be a surprise if they simply bypassed everything, legal requirements be damned.drcrinum said:

Shew me that age and country where the rights and liberties of the people were placed on the sole chance of their rulers being good men, without a consequent loss of liberty? I say that the loss of that dearest privilege has ever followed with absolute certainty, every such mad attempt. If your American chief, be a man of ambition, and abilities, how easy is it for him to render himself absolute: The army is in his hands, and, if he be a man of address, it will be attached to him; and it will be the subject of long meditation with him to seize the first auspicious moment to accomplish his design; and, Sir, will the American spirit solely relieve you when this happens?

Public records show Stefan Halper, the foreign policy expert "outed," as an FBI informant that spied on Donald Trump's presidential campaign, was paid a large sum in 2016 for work he did for the Obama administration.
The Department of Defense paid Halper $282,295 on September 27, 2016 just months before the 2016 presidential election for work titled, "INDIA AND CHINA ECON STUDY," says USASPENDING.gov, a website that tracks spending data for the U.S. government. This sum was one of two payments made to Halper for the job; the second, worth $129,280, was made on July 26, 2017. The record lists Halper's "Period of Performance" as September 26, 2016 to March 29, 2018.
USASPENDING.gov shows the Department of Defense paid Halper a total of $1,058,161 for work between 2012-2018. The work designated for "India-China" study comprised nearly 40 percent of that compensation.
The contents of the work listed above are presently unknown.

Robert Mueller, the special counsel leading the Justice Department's Russia collusion investigation, removed an FBI agent from the case over possible anti-Trump text messages, Fox News confirmed Saturday.
The agent has been identified as Peter Strzok, one of the agency's most experienced and trusted counterintelligence investigators, said the New York Times, which first reported the dismissal.
The allegations came to light after the Justice Department's inspector general started examining Strzok's messages.
"Immediately upon learning of the allegations, the Special Counsel's Office removed Peter Strzok from the investigation," Peter Carr, a spokesman for Mueller, confirmed to Fox News.
Strzok also worked on the FBI investigation last year into whether then-Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton mishandled classified information through her use of private email servers while secretary of State.
During this investigation, Strzok was allegedly involved in an extra-marital affair with FBI lawyer Lisa Page, according to The Washington Post.
"Lisa Page completed her brief detail and had returned to the FBI weeks before our office was aware of the allegations," Carr also said in his statement, though it was not immediately clear to which allegations he was referring.
Strzok was reportedly reassigned this past summer from the Mueller investigation to the FBI's human resources department, according to The Times.
A lawyer for Storzok declined to comment.
