It started when McCabe said that he had talked with the gang of 8 and told them that he opened an investigation concerning Trump and Russia! I just wonder what Nunes told Trump about this investigation. Nunes and Paul Ryan, along with all the other republicans knew way to much before the actual investigation started. Excuse me if you heard this before, Watergate was a pond to this ocean of treason. So, here's my worries, how deep does this go? Who else did Nunes tell? Who told Nunes to run to the White House's skiff room late night and then what did he take and hide? Folks, we are looking a conspiracy that is wide and deep. I just hope Mueller convicts them all. It is one hell of a story and quite scary to find out the plot!

It is amazing when you think about it.
By environment I dont mean DU but in USA. We have to work that much harder to counter the actions and support of about 45 million Americans who adamantly support the traitor NO MATTER WHAT.

3. If you have multiple occasions to sanction our enemy and dont, you are part of the problem
