  1. Ah, “ignorance of the law is no defense” for citizens but the government doesn’t know how to apply our laws to themselves.

    Then, they’re just being “stupid”. Not being tyrants.

  2. I expect more than mistakes will be found.
    I expect crimes to treason to be found.
    And then prosecution of the guilty. Leaders and followers.
    I don’t care what their intent was.

  3. Mr. Columbo, it was a simple mistake, an oversight if you will. No harm done. I’ll be on my way now.

    Oh sure, I can see how that could happen………..just one more thing.

  6. @Tony Я:

    “We’re not stupid”. Corrupt, criminal, and traitorous, but not stupid!

    Yep. Corrupt, criminal, traitorous…and with the finely honed moral principles of Niccolò Machiavelli and the sound judgment of Babs Streisand.

  7. Actually, the FBI is not stupid. The individuals who work for the FBI who thought they could get away with running a soft coup against Trump and not get discovered? Those are the stupid ones.

    For the first time in a very long time, I have some genuine hope that a bunch of these people are going to get convicted and sent to jail. Only because Trump is President. If Jeb or Marco were President? Then I would have zero hope.

  8. Not stupid:

    Treasonous.
    Arrogant.
    Brutal.
    Treacherous.
    Disingenuous.
    Perfidious.

    But certainly NOT stupid.

    A Constitutional Republic has no need of a Secret State Police.
