While I'm revved up tonight I might as well

mention a little something about our pathetic media in this country that's been festering for about 9 years now. For the last 9 years we have all seen the endless whining and accusations played in the media about Hillary supposedly "spying" on the campaign people of Crumb the 1st. The stenographers that claim to be journalists have written tons of articles investigating those claims over the years.

But not once have I seen a "reporter", "journalist" or "analyst" go hard at the campaign of Crumb The 1st about whether they were spying on Hillary and her people beyond what the Russians may have been doing. We know about the endless ragging about her "e-mails" and we know that the FBI around New York were not playing it straight. But nobody seems to ever come out and just make the people who worked for Crumb The 1st go on record about their own spying. Are we so gaslighted that they have us believing they weren't doing it? Some of the dirtiest operators in history and we're supposed to believe they were all just stuffing envelopes at headquarters and answering phones?

So for 9 years we have the huge volume of articles about the "Steele Dossier" but, even leaving the question of the Russians out of the equation for the moment, where are articles investigating the activities of Stone, Manafort, Bannon and others regarding domestic spies being employed against Hillary? Are we really to believe there weren't people tracking every move Hillary made or digging up anything they possibly could? Really?

But the media is still dutifully covering the constant harangue about "spying" on Crumb the 1st while ignoring asking the same questions about the activities of Crumb The 1st and his people regarding their other "spying" activities beyond the role of the Russians.
