During the Obama administration was when it first dawned on me that America had become
a banana republic, putting third-world politicians into high office.TD

"Trump fired back, calling the “illegal investigation” a “phony and treasonous hoax.' ”
The Day of Reckoning Is at Hand . . . "Coming from Barr, a most measured and serious man, this explosive testimony portends a bleak future for all those FBI, Department of Justice, and intelligence community operatives who used their official positions and enormous — bordering on limitless — governmental powers to undermine the presidential campaign of Donald Trump, and, failing that, to undo the results of the 2016 election. So it is that Barr’s description of the possibility of such political surveillance as a “big deal” is understatement of the first order. As “big deals” go, the stakes couldn’t be any higher.
"On cue, the Democrats and their wholly owned mainstream media subsidiary have tried to dull the impact of Barr’s testimony. One bedraggled party flak claimed on network television that, since Barr merely thought spying had occurred, he had not confirmed that it had really, truly and actually happened. And, resorting to the left’s default position on all things Trump, Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin has called for Barr’s impeachment. " . . .

Focus on the Leaking, Not Just the Spying . . . "Schiff should recalibrate his umbrage. Trump will be president until at least 2021. If Democrats see no problem with the anonymous disclosure of elements of ongoing counterintelligence investigations, or the fruits of surveillance, what is to stop Trump from doing it too? To borrow a popular slogan of the moment: This is not normal."

Barr Should Focus on 2 Questions When Investigating Spying on Trump Campaign
. . . "First, did the FBI and the Justice Department have evidence to justify opening an investigation and counterintelligence operation looking at the Trump presidential campaign? "And second, did those who authorized the spying meet the requirements of the FISA law to justify electronic surveillance?" . . . Hans von Spakovsky
