The two California Democrats join the long list of politicians who enable spying on ordinary citizens, then angrily object when they themselves are targeted.
Why would any thinking person vote for a man like Adam Schiff? Although the vast majority of those posing as today's journalists are careful to never point out Mr. Schiff's many failed predictions/promises and false and/or contradictory statements, any one who simply listens to Schiff for even a brief period of time should realize how absurd and unreliable he is. I wouldn't even want Adam Schiff as a neighbor or a co-worker. How can his constituents choose him to make important decisions effecting all of our lives? I don't get it.
This is so damn funny. Remember how Schiff shocked Devin Nunes by revealing that he (Schiff) had obtained all of Nunes' phone records to see if he had communicated with the White House? And Swalwell is the funniest of all. He went on record about a conversation he supposedly had with Trump where the President said, Are the Russians bad? Swalwell said, Yeah, and don't eat glue. At the very same time, Swalwell was in bed with a Chinese spy. What a stupid fuck. I really hate these people.
Our current crop of 'leaders' may be the worst in history. And I don't just mean today's. Let's go back about 4-5 administrations covering both parties (probably more, but I'm moving quickly here). This is not what the founding documents laid out. This is not what we were formed on- quite the opposite. I cannot stress enough that it's time for a house cleaning. In our schools, our media, and our political classes. If people want to be led by the nose and taken care of by their government, there are countries all over the world that have been trying it out for years. Perhaps you can find one that fits your needs. All others who long for individual liberty, a government that sticks to it's stated areas of oversight, and leaders chosen from across the spectrum of our citizenry (not just lawyers who went to Yale or Harvard) who are willing to serve for specific terms- to be limited- should stick around and fight. The level of corrupt incompetence when you get to a Swalwell and Schiff is embarrassing (not to mention Biden/Harris...yikes). We have better than this walking around every city in America. What are we doing letting these clowns run our country? Would you allow any of them to run your business? Not a chance. Not one of them. But your country?
"That this DOJ investigation of Schiff and Swalwell was baseless or abusive may turn out to be correct: time will tell."
How is it not only conceivable but almost certain that Schiff leaked classified information to the media -- repeatedly -- for the sole purpose of undermining Donald Trump and his administration? That the wholly inept and Democrat-infested DoJ never actually looked hard enough to uncover anything is the more likely story here.
One thing I appreciate about Glenn's Substack space is that the comments are generally better quality. There are frequent disagreements that are sometimes strongly worded. But the people here still engage with each other. I was over at The Hill and The Washington Post and it is pretty pointless to leave comments there.
I despair of ever getting anything done on this score (reining in intelligence agencies). The general public just doesn't get the issues and you never seem to find enough non-whoring or non-compromised politicians to form a majority.
Schitt and Swalwell were leaking classified information. They did so on occasions too numerous to count during the Russia Hoax. Both continuously lied and fed the media a steady diet of fantasy and fiction and conspiracy. Greenwald doesn't care. Apparently we should allow public officials to violate the law anytime they want.
Can it really be called “Trump’s DOJ/FBI when the leadership of those agencies spent all their time attempting to illegally remove him from office? Moreover, Trump obviously did not give the order to or even know about the spying on Schiff and Swallowell. If he had the leadership of the FBI would have immediately leaked that to the NYSlimes and used it to impeach him. In fact, Trump couldn’t order the DOJ/FBI to do much of anything while in office because those agencies would have used it against him by calling it “obstruction of justice”.
Our political system is such a corrupt joke now days I don’t even care about the details anymore. No high level Democrat EVER gets prosecuted while unpaid low level campaign advisors for Trump have SWAT break down their door in the middle of the night and haul them off to solitary for months on end. They can all burn in hell as far as I am concerned.
The Jane Harman incident is worth revisiting in the wake of years of feigned outrage about US elected officials purportedly acting as agents of foreign powers. Harman didn't merely argue for the dismissal of espionage charges against the AIPAC agents out of her reverence for Israel. The conversation she was recorded having was with an Israeli intelligence agent who promised that Israeli intelligence would use its "influence" to have her appointed as the chair of the House Intelligence Committee! A powerful, sitting US Congresswoman promising to use her power to intervene on behalf of a foreign power in a national security criminal prosecution for personal political gain.
Please report more extensively on COVID-related censorship. Last night (June 11) youtube blocked Dr. Hoorman's interview on Tucker Carlson half way through. https://twitter.com/AlexBerenson/status/1403361914219024385 Countless similar stories of social media blocking experts for scientific dissent. Nobel Prize winning virologist Luc montagnier, Geert Vanden Bossche, Byram Bridle to name a few, but the list is rapidly growing. Not to mention the fact that the NYtimes hasn't run a story on Fauci's emails or the CDC recent alarming reports on myocarditis. I thought I'd see more of these stories from you for censorship reasons. Jimmy Dore, Bret Weinstein and many other have talked about this. There needs to be more debate, but tech platforms are zealously squashing dissent.

How in the hell is Eric Fartwell still on the House Intel Committee after compromising himself with CCP honeytrap FangFang???
Their expressions of moral outrage carry the same weight as those of shoplifters caught red handed.

When I read your articles I realize how uninformed I was in years past. Makes me wonder what I'm missing/overlooking today.

Remember, the Law of Unintended Consequences is not supposed to apply to them.

I think it's a slight misstatement to call the DOJ under Trump, the Trump DOJ. THe DOJ/FBI/CIA/NSA work for THEMSELVES.
Afterall, it was the "Trump DOJ" that trampled the FISA court to try to frame him.
Can it really be called “Trump’s DOJ/FBI when the leadership of those agencies spent all their time attempting to illegally remove him from office? Moreover, Trump obviously did not give the order to or even know about the spying on Schiff and Swallowell.
