Fed have locked up people by bending the law. If the right person is upset, bye bye freedom. Or do you still believe the US justice system is completely honorable?
sorry that administration is on the way out bub
I don't believe this is limited to the Obama administration, bub. It's convenient to blame all on Obama but it's 8 years out of decades of bribes, corruption, greed and power brokering.
But, consider this: Tillerson has been a very successful CEO, and he didn't get that way by putting his personal friendship with Putin before the interests of his shareholders. If he takes his new job at State seriously, then the same should also hold true.
In a story that is getting more surreal by the minute, a post on 4Chan now claims that the infamous "golden showers" scene in the unverified 35-page dossier, allegedly compiled by a British intelligence officer, was a hoax and fabricated by a member of the chatboard as "fanfiction", then sent to Rick Wilson, who proceeded to send it to the CIA, which then put it in their official classified intelligence report on the election.

Do you guys actually believe that 4Chan was able to orchestrate a hoax against the American intelligence community?
If so things have eroded here way more than even I thought.

the subject of a 2008 biography by investigative journalist Aram Roston, The Man Who Pushed America to War: The Extraordinary Life, Adventures, And Obsessions of Ahmad Chalabi[4] and a 2011 biography by 60 Minutes producer Richard Bonin, Arrows of the Night: Ahmad Chalabi's Long Journey to Triumph in Iraq.[5]
Chalabi was a controversial figure, especially in the United States, for many reasons.
In the lead-up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the Iraqi National Congress (INC), with the assistance of lobbying powerhouse BKSH & Associates,[6] provided a major portion of the information on which U.S. Intelligence based its condemnation of the Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, including reports of weapons of mass destruction and alleged ties to al-Qaeda. Most, if not all, of this information has turned out to be false and Chalabi has been called a fabricator.
That, combined with the fact that Chalabi subsequently boasted, in an interview with the British Sunday Telegraph, about the impact that their alleged falsifications had on American policy, led to a falling out between him and the U.S. government.
