So, um, what, exactly, is being investigated at this point?
(CNS News) Jake Tapper, host of CNN’s “State of the Union,” asked Warner: “One of the big questions, of course, is, is there any evidence of collusion that you have seen yet? Is there?”
Warner (D-Va.) responded:
Listen, there’s a lot of smoke. We have no smoking gun at this point. But there is a lot of smoke.
And, again, one of the questions we will have, not only for Director Comey on Thursday, but on Wednesday for Director of National Intelligence (Dan) Coats and NSA, National Security — NSA Director Admiral (Michael) Rogers, I’m going to want to ask them, because there have been reports that the president also talked to both of them in terms of asking them to downplay the Russian investigation.
That would be very concerning to me.
This is reminding me of the Valerie Plame affair. The special prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald, already knew who leaked initially: Richard Armitage, by accident. And knew it early. Yet, Fitzgerald kept investigating and investigating, eventually getting Scooter Libby for silly stuff. In this case, the Dems keep investigating and investigating and investigating, but, there is nothing there. No proof. Just unsubstantiated feelings, and massive butthurt from losing the election to Donald Trump.
After all these months, all they have is “smoke.”
