Confirmed: When Trump Fired Comey, Deep State Began Plotting to Remove Him From Office
Trump had the right to remove Comey -- but Andrew McCabe, Rod Rosenstein, etc., did not have the right to remove Trump.
And yet -- the media and Ruling Class are pretending it was illegal to fire Comey and yet legally required of the Deep State to violate its oaths to remove a president they didn't vote for. McCabe's new book repeats his claim (denied by Rosenstein) that Rosenstein offered to wear a wire in his meetings with Trump. All to gather evidence for a 25th Amendment removal. Because firing James Comey was apparently proof of mental incompetency.Meetings were held at the Department of Justice on whether President Donald Trump should be removed from office with the 25th Amendment after the firing of former FBI Director James Comey, former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe writes in a new book. "There were meetings at the Justice Department at which it was discussed whether the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet could be brought together to remove the president of the United States under the 25th Amendment," CBS News' Scott Pelley said Thursday in a preview of his forthcoming interview with McCabe. Pelley noted that these meetings were part of an extraordinary 8-day period after Comey's firing in which Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein also suggested to senior FBI officials that he should wear a secret recording device in his meetings with Trump. ... The 25th Amendment allows for the removal of the president of the United States if a majority of his Senate-confirmed cabinet believe he is no longer capable of discharging his duties while in office. Rosenstein reportedly speculated that he could convince at least two cabinet officials to sign on to a plan to oust Trump from office.These people should be in jailed, if not being stretched at the lower end of a rope.
Here McCabe talks about the open cases into Papadopoulos, Manafort, Flynn, and Page — and"any others that may have gone forward."

Not true. In fact, she was just here.
Yep, Justice Ginsburg just left this stack of her rulings on pending Court business right here on my desk.
What, you didn't pass her on your way in?
My assistant probably saw her. Oh wait, no, I remember it was while my assistant was getting coffee.
I have to say, she was in and out like a flash. Said she had some errands to run and had to be on her way.
That's the thing about Justice Ginsburg, she's so quick! You know she does a lot of walking and running and -- and wind sprints. Wind sprints will make you quick! You should try them yourself, great way to get in shape.
Um no, she was not with her driver. She was all by herself. I think she said she took the Metro. She's very proud of how D.C. runs the Metro, so efficient and cheap and safe!
Who knows, if you run out after her right now you might just be able to catch her!
Check with some of the reporters hanging around the building. If you tell them that I just saw her, they'll probably tell you that they just saw her, too.
Anyway, it doesn't matter. We have her rulings all nice and tidy right here on my desk, and that's the important thing, right?

I don't know though what I'm more mad about, the coup or how Trump has handled it. Almost like a spectator that just bitches on Twitter.

Oh, and I've said before that as President I'd have taken the guy out on day one. He'd have to book a tour to ever get back into a Federal facility.
Pour encourager les autres, and all that.
"Thanks for getting me elected, Jim, but your agency's handling of the Clinton mailserver was so transparently substandard that I cannot allow you to continue in your office."
As for removing a sitting President, there's this thing called 'impeachment', and 'high crimes and misdemeanors' could be jaywalking if the opposing party were in control. We've never really had a Constitutional test on that.

I'd be down with a constitutional amendments that limited proposed laws to one side of a standard piece of paper (let's be generous, and make it legal size), in 12 point type.
Also an amendment that made any law that performed a function unrelated to its title prima facie unconstitutional.
For instance, a bill to fund a new post office couldn't have a rider attached that gave forty billion dollars to Iran.

Even we pedestrians have known it was all lies from the get go ... from the rigged primary for Hillary, to the Strzok insurance policy, to the Skolkovo/Uranium treasonous sale of our military might. And yet there sits Mueller ... dragging Trump supporters out of their house with CNN participating in the coup/PsyOp.
Whitaker say it is troubling ... but does nothing. We're gonna need a bigger boat to Guantanamo. We are still on a war footing btw, since 9/11, and those military tribunals might reach out and touch more people than most believe is possible.

It's occurred to some of us a long time ago.
Why do you thing McCabe was fired? Why are McCabe, who was fired for lying and leaking, and Rosenstein who Trump did NOT fire and continues to praise publicly, continuing to fight right up until this very moment?
Why did Rosenstein appoint Mueller and specifically instruct that McCabe NOT be part of the investigation?
This is a particularly good and factual piece that lays out the timeline and what happened in broad strokes.

Removing a president against his will through the 25th amendment requires: two thirds of the house, plus two thirds of the senate, plus the vice president, plus a majority of the cabinet. If you have all of those on board you don't need the 25th, you can simply impeach and remove him.
The purpose of the 25th is (1) to remove a president who doesn't object but can't resign because he's in a coma or a straitjacket; or (2) to reluctantly remove a beloved president without having to embarrass him and harm his place in history. Neither of these apply to Trump. He would certainly object to his removal, and those seeking it don't love him.

I assume not, because what McCabe is spouting doesn't point to good/legal actions being taken by various individuals (who should become unhappy on a permanent basis very soon) to 'protect us' from Donald Trump.
Or do they suddenly not give a shit about getting rid of OrangaMan and just want to get a story?

I'm sure you've noticed that NO ONE talks about Carter Page anymore, even though he was the focus of so much of the early investigation. After reading a lot of what he said, I'm convinced that Page is one of the few who, even though he's kind of goofy in person, has always told the EXACT truth about everything he did and said every step of the way, to everyone who would listen. Every check on his stories has come back with, yep, he was telling the truth.
And so his investigators have got the problem that nothing he ever did was actually in violation of any existing law, and he never lied to anyone about any of it. And so, after years of scrutinizing everything he ever said or wrote, we've finally come to the position that "well we just won't mention his name anymore."

Yeah it was a moron fantasy by people who didn't read and are largely unfamiliar with the constitution. Probably at a meeting, McCabe asked a staffer if there was anything in the constitution that could remove a president besides impeachment (since the GOP controlled the house). The staffer probably said something like "well I mean, there's the 25th amendment, in theory you can remove a president for incapacity but..."
"PERFECT! That's what we'll do!"
"but sir..."

I'm not trying to be short but this is not simple to explain in this format. There were a ton of things happening, people moving around and plots being laid and it really needs a long format like that article which is quite detailed and lays out some, not all but some, of how things actually went down.
The media has been our enemy in this spinning everything and everyone in an opposite fashion. Good guys are bad guys and the other way around.
The truth is a lot more nuanced. It's just not that black and white and you really need to step back and look at the timeline and the players with an open mind.

But we can hope their are legit agents building their case, and this will all come crashing down on DeepState (#2Weeks, #WetDreams, #HuberWillCome, QAnon says ... etc.).
I hold that hope, but see no real action except by DeepState. Most promises end in fizzles and a little pop. AG Barr is way too close with Mueller, who was way too close with Comey ... and they are all buddies covering up massive crimes for Dems and assorted mobsters. But it is a long game, and we don't get to see in the shadows.

I think JackStraw is right. There was a plot within the IC/FBI to destroy Trump from the very beginning. Once Trump was elected, sworn in, and fired Comey, they knew the jig was up and initiated the cover-up with the counter intelligence investigation and Special counsel.

It's not 4D although I know that some love that term. It's actually pretty straightforward.
Who has Mueller "destroyed".
Flynn still hasn't been sentenced and got yelled at by the judge for pleading guilty when he likely isn't.
Manafort and Gates? You losing a lot of sleep out of guys who are the epitome of the Deep State and likely gave the plotters a target because of all his deep Russian ties? I sure as hell am not.
Russian troll farms? Ah, no.
The only one I feel sorry for is Stone, a long time dirty trickster who likely lied to Mueller. Shitty, sure.
But McCabe was right today. Once he started an investigation someone was going to finish it. There was no way politically Trump could have just squashed it altogether. That would have led to impeachment and it very well might have worked.
This was a least bad way to head off a coup attempt. In 3D.

The problem is Republicans play nice. People who defy subpoenas should just be thrown in jail until they comply. If it's really something that shouldn't be disclosed, you can argue that later in court. But instead they just let deadlines pass and nothing happens but more rhetoric.

I get the feeling that when PDT wins his second term, we may see the DC Swamp get drained of these traitors. He's a patient man. Two more years of these sorts of revelations about the Swamp will have a lot more favorable public opinion on his side when he does decide to pull the pin on some treason charges.
IMO, he's giving them rope to hang themselves with. They're so full of hubris right now, but that's going to backfire on them big time. That's why they can't keep their mouths shut.
Of course, if he doesn't win, things may spiral out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it.

A Fox News Poll released Wednesday finds 25 percent believe God wanted Trump to win the election. Sixty-two percent disagree and 14 are unsure.
Over half of white evangelical Christians, 55 percent, feel God put Trump in office. That drops to 36 percent among Protestants and 20 percent among Catholics.
Trump voters are nearly six times as likely as Clinton voters to believe God wanted Trump to win the election (46 vs. 8 percent). The results are nearly identical among Republicans (45 percent) and Democrats (9 percent).

Actually it's got better chances of being filed than you may think. First off, and perhaps most importantly, the Boston DA is a woman who's especially hard on rape cases.
Second, forget the smokescreens about "no corroboration" - Fairfax already admitted that yes, they were together that night, and yes, they had some form of sexual relations. So, 90% of her story has already been confirmed by the Accused (stupidly). No need at all now to establish whether or not "it" happened, it did, he confessed - the only question is whether it was consensual, or whether it was forced.
And that is a question only a jury can decide, and it will come down to who is more credible in the courtroom. (btw, almost EVERY rape case between two people who knew each other comes down to that exact same question, it's nothing new)

The premise here has a crapton of theological problems too.

So if you believe, like I do that Hillary was an irrational choice, then the subsequent parallels include that man made the rational choice toward the objective good, the ultimate of which is God.

Does this not reek of Mr. McCabe and other top level FBI and DOJ bureaucrats placing their will before the 60 million Americans that elected President Trump, that they were effectively engaging in the early stages of implementing a coup?
Why?
Apparently because President Trump sent packing former FBI director James Comey and that President Trump was and still is a brash loudmouth.
And too the fake charges brought by them that President Trump had actively conspired with the Russian government to "steal the election," a charge that has been falling apart for years.
One need note the great irony, that the origin of all this fakery came from candidate Clinton using lies knowingly fed to her and then on to the FBI and DOJ by actual Russians.
Noble not these people are. Mr. McCabe and his fellow colluders are nothing but political hacks that now chase book deals and interviews where they are allowed unchecked to sound wise and great, rewarded with fame instead of shame.
