I'm not saying they need explaining. Many are self-explanatory, like the "F Trump" ones. I'm saying that they should be acknowledged rather than ignored or downplayed.

They showed they didn't like Trump (and other pols)--you know, like the entire NY FBI didn't like Hillary, which is unsurprising bc FBI Agents tend to be GOP. And?

When Mueller/Horowitz found that they had very normal opinions on politics, they were removed. Which means...the system worked. Sure. Let's talk about the system working, shall we? Maybe you should ask why GOPers are ignoring the real basics?

The system began working, but only after this guy had his hands on the investigation for an entire year. There's not enough evidence yet that his political bias colored the Trump investigation, but it certainly can't be cast aside as a conspiracy theory.

OKAYYYYY. Let's talk about the text where, well after he had reason to suspect, he said nothing was going to come of the investigation. NOW who's ignoring texts?

Can we go back to where the FBI Director broke all the rules on announcements 10 days before the election bc he was worried abt right wingers leaking?

I won't argue that that was a ridiculous move by Comey. But he didn't do it because he wanted to hurt Hillary. He did it because he's self-serving and was worried that leaks would make him look bad.

The leaks by ... the far greater number of right wing FBI Agents then there are lefties.
