No, but thanks for asking
For the morning's top story,* let's go live to Fox legal analyst Gregg "Law is hard -- let's go shopping!" Jarrett:
However, this apparent plot to keep Trump from becoming president and to weaken and potentially pave the way for his impeachment with a prolonged politically motivated investigation – if proven – would constitute something far more nefarious and dangerous.
As of now, we have no proof beyond a reasonable doubt of such a plot. But we have very strong circumstantial evidence.
And as the philosopher and writer Henry David Thoreau wrote in his journal in 1850: “Some circumstantial evidence is very strong, as when you find a trout in the milk.”
You'll want to read the whole thing. Or not.
There is strong circumstantial evidence that an
insidious plot unprecedented in American history was hatched within the
FBI and the Obama Justice Department to help elect Hillary Clinton
and defeat Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
And when this apparent effort to
improperly influence the election did not succeed, the suspected
conspirators appear to have employed a fraudulent investigation of
President Trump in an attempt to undo the election results and remove
him as president.
Such a Machiavellian scheme would move well beyond what is known as
the “deep state,” a popular reference to government employees who
organize in secret to impose their own political views on government
policy in defiance of democratically elected leadership.However, this apparent plot to keep Trump from becoming president and to weaken and potentially pave the way for his impeachment with a prolonged politically motivated investigation – if proven – would constitute something far more nefarious and dangerous.
Apparently having mistaken Hofstadter's "The paranoid style in American politics" for a user's manual, he rocks on:
Such a plot would show that partisans within the FBI and the Justice
Department, driven by personal animus and a sense of political
righteousness, surreptitiously conspired to subvert electoral democracy
itself in our country.As of now, we have no proof beyond a reasonable doubt of such a plot. But we have very strong circumstantial evidence.
And as the philosopher and writer Henry David Thoreau wrote in his journal in 1850: “Some circumstantial evidence is very strong, as when you find a trout in the milk.”
