Sources tell NY Times that officials were so alarmed by Trump’s actions they began checking whether — wittingly or not — he was singing to Moscow’s tune; unclear if probe closed

ed note–besides the obvious–which is the MONUMENTAL hypocrisy of any ‘investigation’ being done over Trump being a supposed ‘Russian agent’, when in fact every president since LBJ has been a pawn, poodle and puppet of that OTHER foreign power, Israel–the other possibility that has yet to be considered within the context of all this ‘Russian meddling in the 2016 elections’ business and OBVIOUS the fire and fury with which organized Jewish interests are focusing all their energies is that to some degree, the Russians DID INDEED insert themselves into the workings of this process and circumvented the planned outcome which Jewry wanted to see take place–a pro-war, NeoCon-compliant Clinton presidency.

After all, everyone knows the kind of grand mal seizures that occur whenever Jews are bested in some contest by Gentiles, and it may be that this current epileptic fit over Russia is due entirely to the fact that AIPAC came out on the losing side in all of this and therefore, Judea, Inc wants to make sure that something like this never happens again.

US law enforcement officials became so alarmed by President Donald Trump’s behavior in the days after he fired FBI Director James Comey that they began probing whether he had been working for Russia against US interests, The New York Times reported Friday night.

The report cited unnamed former law enforcement officials and others familiar with the investigation.

It said officials considered both the possibility that the president was knowingly assisting Moscow and that he had unknowingly come under its influence.

The sources noted that Trump’s own admission that he fired Comey in May 2017 over his refusal to end the investigation into his campaign’s possible ties to Russia was one of the motivations for the probe into the president’s personal ties to Moscow.

They were also motivated by his reported statements during a May White House meeting with visiting Russian officials that he had fired Comey because “he was crazy, a real nut job.”

Special counsel Robert Mueller took over the personal investigation of Trump when he was appointed soon after Comey’s firing. The Times said it was unclear whether Mueller was still pursuing it.

Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani told the Times that he had no knowledge of the inquiry but said that since it was opened a year and a half ago and they hadn’t heard anything, apparently “they found nothing.”

Mueller is believed to be investigating whether Comey’s firing and other actions amount to obstruction of justice by the president.

Comey recently attacked the president for telling “lies” and undermining the FBI’s reputation and the rule of law.

Comey spoke after a spurt of anti-FBI tweets from the president in December alleged that the investigative body abused its powers in probing his former personal lawyer Michael Cohen and his former national security adviser Michael Flynn.

Cohen and Flynn have both been convicted for various crimes as part of the Russia probe and have both offered evidence potentially damaging to their former boss.

“The FBI’s reputation has taken a big hit because the president of the United States, with his acolytes, has lied about it constantly. In the face of those lies, a whole lot of good people… believe that nonsense,” Comey told reporters in the halls of the US Senate on December 17.

“People who know better, including Republican members of this body, have to have the courage to stand up and speak the truth.”

The White House press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, called the Times’ report “absurd” and said Comey was fired for being “a disgraced partisan hack.” She also disputed that Trump had ever been soft on Russia.

“Unlike president Obama, who let Russia and other foreign adversaries push America around, President Trump has actually been tough on Russia,” Sanders said.
