Malcolm Nance, is by far the best intelligence talking head on cable TV.

TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY.

He has been talking about Russian hacks and national security way back when we didnt even know about it. He is by far my favorite intelligence official and his predictions have been spot on. talk about being prophetic and or so good at what you do that almost all your predictions have come true to the dot.

Oh and he wrote a book about it.

The Plot to Hack America: How Putin’s Cyberspies and WikiLeaks Tried to Steal the 2016 Election

What he has been saying the past few days is absolutely bone chilling.

  • Administration officials needing to get lawyers

  • Cash may have changed hands between Flynn and Russian Diplomats

  • Allies giving us tips

  • NSA turning on the full surveillance power

  • Russian collections gap, so surveillance ship deployed off the US east coast.

    Listen to what this man says folks - he has the hand on the pulse of whats about to happen. His predictions have been spot on. We are headed for a constitutional crisis.

Malcolm Nance, the lifelong GOP former spook who wrote The Plot to Hack America: How Putin’s Cyberspies and WikiLeaks Tried to Steal the 2016 Election, published BEFORE the 2016 election, has been very accurate about his predictions. Nance said this week that around March 2018 (4 months from now) will be National Indictment Month.

I heard its very good. I plan to.

If you dont know what we are talking about - this is his book.

Thank you for the thorough response.

>Circumstantial evidence is not the same as evidence of wrong doing

People have been convicted on nothing more than circumstantial evidence. It's not abnormal. So just because it's circumstantial doesn't mean it's invalid or worthy of being dismissed. It does mean that maybe it should be looked more deeply into.

>Trump talking with the Russians isn't illegal on its own. Neither is his cabinet.

No, it's not at all. But lying about it under oath is, which Sessions and Kushner both did. Not only is that illegal, but it's highly suspicious and maybe indicates something more beyond the surface.

At this point, I am not adding anything partisan. I'm just stating what has happened. I'm surprised that you don't agree it's worthy of investigating.

Just like if your (hypothetical) teenage kid lies about where he was last night, you don't just get them in trouble for lying... you'd likely want to know why they lied about it. And maybe find out what may or may not have happened at the establishment where they felt the need to lie about.

Would you not agree?

>Further if the "people that mattered" had evidence they should take it to trial.

Well... you have to have an investigation in order to form a case to take to trial. It's not like evidence just falls on your lap then you go straight to trial. If evidence (or a tip) falls on your lap, you investigate to get as much information as possible. This may lead them to say "the evidence that fell on our lap turned out to be nothing" or "the evidence that fell onto our lap turned out to be something."

Take the Aaron Hernandez case. They got a tip, but had no evidence. Upon further investigation, they found hard evidence of his guilt by a piece of bubble gum with his DNA on it.

But none of that can happen without an investigation. The idea is to find the truth.

You're treating it as "we just want Trump impeached" whereas the people behind the investigation just want to know the truth. They are not partisan.

>Until then there's no need for it to dominate the news cycle and bring in the hysterics of "illegitimate president" "impeach him" and "Russians are taking over" which have all been stated by one political party throughout all of this.

This is just partisan rhetoric. It means nothing. The right said the same shit about Obama. I can show you articles saying that there was a rug where Obama kneeled to pray to mecca, and there is an empty space on a tobacco-stained wall where a photo of Muhammad hung or something like that.

Don't let this stuff influence your opinion. It's all bullshit.

>Also you're assuming that the people that matter are somehow immune to bias or ulterior motives themselves, which as we know from the human condition, we can throw away on its face.

Sure, but most distinguished professionals wouldn't let it affect their jobs, right?

>No foreign country has the US best interests in mind and it's naive and silly to think they do

To think Russia has the same feelings toward the US as our close allies... that's just completely wrong.

Many many many countries have designed their government to reflect ours. Russia hasn't. Russia won't. To say that Russia and England have the same motives regarding US relations is equally naive.

However, countries that are our actual allies do have our best interests as heart. Many economies rely on the US through trade agreements (NATO). Many countries rely on our protection. You'd think those countries would hope that we continue doing well.

Russia wants to dissolve NATO and dissolve the EU. They aren't our friend.

>There is no proof or evidence of

Yes. There is. Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. There are entire books written about it by highly respected authors/professionals. TRUMP HIMSELF HAS CONCEDED TO THIS. How much more evidence do you need?

This is simply you burying your head in the sand so you don't have to change your perspective. It happened. There is proof. There are books. You choosing to ignore it doesn't mean it isn't there.

Can you show me proof or evidence that Snowden or Manning leaked that info? You can't, but we trust the professionals who do this for a living.

>>Has met with officials, where our officials are inclined to lie about these meetings

>None of which is illegal

How is lying about meeting with Russian officials under oath not illegal?

>>Has a deep history of political corruption.

>So does most countries. Still irrelevant and speaks nothing of Trump.

Most countries that we consider allies don't murder political opponents, don't jail outspoken critics, and don't have systemic methods of cheating.

I mean come on, man. You have to know how absurdly corrupt Russia is.

>The rest of your post revolves around how great and nonbias the fbi is which is nonsense and I won't dignify it with a response.

Please, you talk about needing evidence? Show me evidence of partisanship within the FBI. You're being ridiculous. Show me something that shows that the FBI has a political leaning.

>What the mob wants doesn't justify what they want. 99% of people could want something and it could still be wrong. Democracy is a scam.

99% of a population isn't a mob. Do you know what a mob is? 80% of a country is WHAT THE COUNTRY WANTS. Again, not a mob. You're letting a few outspoken left-wingers influence how you view every single citizen who doesn't support Trump. You're just as guilty of partisan hackery as everyone else you're accusing it of.

>If The republicans convinced the pubic that the government must shut down

You keep saying "shut down" but you can't define what that means. You are simply regurgitating what you are being told without fully understanding it. That's exactly what your politicians want you to do, and it seems to be working swimmingly.

Republicans have full control over the government. An FBI investigation will not shut it down.

>And saying "sure we'll submit to an investigation with no logical gameplan and no sufficient conclusion" means the democrats get to shut down government for 4 years

Again, show me how cooperating with an investigation shuts anything down. Still waiting on the logic behind this... and waiting... and waiting...

Your entire last paragraph is conjecture and paranoia. All based around the government "shutting down" (it won't), based around the FBI all being 100% liberal democrats (they aren't), and 80% of the population being a "mob" (it isn't).

That's all fucking wrong. You are so deeply entrenched in partisanship that you aren't even thinking logically. This investigation won't go on for 4 years. Or 8 years. That's crazy. No one wants the government to shut down. Stop listening to right-wing propaganda.

For all the things you're asking for sources on, read politifact's articles about it.

That is a nonpartisan website that fact checks politicians. They have called out Hillary, Obama, and Trump. They are a pulitzer prize winning website. If an article publishes information that may be critical of Trump, that doesn't automatically mean it's partisan.

Please have an open mind when reading unbiased reports.

> And I am going to say this partially based on how you edited the title of your submission. I'm going to point out that "hack" has multiple meanings.

I uneditorialized the title of the youtube video and used his book title:

Wikileaks is done. Their denial about russian involvement and coordination with them to to release the information they wanted to release at the time they wanted to release it was ground zero for the effort to get Orange Julius Caesar elected. Not a fucking peep from them as to the FSB's involvement, nor the hundreds of russian intelligence people deployed online to sway public opinion. They're still doing it, and somehow we're still sceptical!

Gee, what funny timing for Wikileaks to ramp up whatabout-isms re: a US intelligence service! If it talks like a bear and walks like a bear......

We KNOW what happened, even just the free sample from Malcolm Nance's new book makes it clear: https://www.amazon.com/Plot-Hack-America-Cyberspies-WikiLeaks/dp/1510723323
