Trump wasn’t working for Russia, but it’s hard to find anyone in D.C. who isn’t.

 Russia may be a mafia state, but unfortunately we've become one too

  • On Saturday, the FBI arrested one of its own. Charles McGonigal, who used to head counterintel for the Bureau in New York and investigated Trump over Russiagate, was busted at JFK Airport and has been charged with violating the sanctions placed on Oleg Deripaska.
  • We may very well find that the retired FBI officials who haven't gotten contracts as commentators for cable news have gone to work for the Russians.
  • Louis Freeh, Bill Clinton's former FBI director, represented a number of Russian oligarchs and his deceased predecessor, Director William Sessions worked for a top Russian mafia figure linked to Putin.

The Clintons, who initiated Russiagate, as usual had led the way

  • In 2009, Hillary Clinton arrived bearing a “Reset Button” which was meant to symbolize the desire of the Obama administration for a new relationship with Russia.
  • All it really symbolized was that the Clintons, like the Russians, would steal anything that wasn’t nailed down
  • The real relationship launched with that button was between Russia and the Clintons

Russiagate was a masterstroke that took one of Hillary's greatest legal vulnerabilities and turned it around so that the country has spent the last six years debating Trump's ties to Russia while at the same time justifying illegal surveillance and prosecution of her opponent's associates.

  • Beginning with the Clinton era, a generation of FBI officials have alternated between working for the Clintons and the Russians while compromising our national security and domestic politics.

Retired generals, IRS officials, and FBI officials go to work for the rich and powerful

  • In Washington, D.C., retired generals and officials teach corporations how to avoid taxes, and aspiring presidents open nonprofits that allow them to legally take cash from foreign countries while prepping their future administrations.

FBI officials copying what they've seen top elected officials get away with

  • Russiagate and what happened to the FBI can't be understood apart from the routine corruption of a city whose public servants work for the government in order to trade on knowledge
