I think conservative thought has a strong basis in fear.
Fear of the unknown, strangers, neighbours, sexuality, women...
But mostly it is a fear of losing power over others.

ElDotardo said:The real goal was to trap him. Remember, the FBI didn’t need to ask Mr. Flynn what he’d said to the Russian ambassador; they had a recording. The only reason for an interview was to coax Mr. Flynn into saying something at odds with that transcript. They worked hard at it. Then-Director James Comey has previously bragged that the FBI went around the White House legal counsel to make sure Mr. Flynn had no lawyer present.
Of course they entrapped him. It worked, he lied to them and was punished for it. Its what LE does all the time in the US.
You're only upset about it because it exposes the near-certainty that the Russians interfered with the disastrous Trump election.

ElDotardo said:None of these proves Ms. Reade’s accusations, but the accounts do make them harder to ignore. And it highlights the troubling double standard between how sexual assault charges against Brett Kavanaugh were treated and how the same people are now treating assault accusations against Mr. Biden.
So you have a corrupt system that doesn't investigate crimes. Didn't do it for Kavanaugh, isn't going to do it for Biden.
Why don't you fix it instead of waving it as a political weapon?
You now have a Supreme Court Judge who can be blackmailed and you'll soon have a President the same.
Must be what you want.
FBI has not contacted dozens of potential sources in Kavanaugh investigation
With the investigation winding down, multiple individuals who have tried to contact the bureau have not heard back.
Oct. 3, 2018 - WASHINGTON — More than 40 people with potential information into the sexual misconduct allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh have not been contacted by the FBI ... not contacted dozens of potential corroborators or character witnesses.
A senior U.S. official and two other sources briefed on the details of the FBI investigation confirmed to NBC news ... that it's unlikely agents will be allowed to interview many, if any, additional witnesses before the probe wraps up this week.
... nearly 20 people with potential information about Dr. Ford's allegation that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her while the two were in high school, including Ford herself, have not been interviewed by federal investigators ... According to people familiar with the names on the list, none of them have yet been interviewed by the FBI.
Julie Swetnick, who has accused Kavanaugh of being at parties where boys took turns having sex with inebriated girls in high school, has not been interviewed by the FBI https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/dozens-potential-sources-information-have-not-been-contacted-fbi-kavanaugh-n916146

No. Never attempts to do anything like that.

I haven't seen any stories about it.

Probably not one that would satisfy you, but if you insist, try these topics:

Both contain a variety of sources, but I believe you might find the histories, which the media is laboring hard to bury, quite eye opening. Unless, of course, your mind is clamped shut as tightly as Stephanie's appears to be. |

You are free to think what you wish, but in the context of my post, highlighting a liberal's study, you seem to be denying SCIENCE!!! *chuckle*

The Michael Flynn Debauchery
The people who administer the American system lost trust in that system and debased our institutions.
Barack Obama is turning into the reverse Oracle of Delphi. He sometimes gets it right for the wrong reasons.
Sensing the populist mood in 2008, he intoned about people “who get bitter, they cling to guns or religion.” Missed in translation was that these “people” thought elites like him were the ones who had separated culturally and politically from mainstream Americans.
Now he says the Justice Department’s decision to drop the case against Mike Flynn because of multiple prosecutorial violations of rules protecting defendants’ rights means “the rule of law is at risk.” Right subject, wrong lecture.
Herewith a tutorial. Back in the 1980s, writers for the Journal’s editorial page coined the phrase “inside the Beltway” to describe the moatlike highway around the nation’s capital, whose inhabitants had become politically and psychologically isolated from the rest of the country.
Many Americans then came to believe presidential elections were the one way they could send the Beltway a message. In 2016, we had an Earth-to-Beltway election, whose message was about more than Donald Trump.
Next year or 4½ years from now, Mr. Trump’s presidency will pass into history. Left behind, though, will be a permanent Washington establishment in which many Americans today have no trust. None.
In early 2017, the Flynn case wandered in and out of the news, but it always had a bad odor. What looked like a low-grade mistake by Mr. Flynn got built into a high-stakes prosecution, with special counsel Robert Mueller’s lawyers pressuring him with family and financial ruin unless he took a plea and helped them fry bigger fish in a Beltway-wide project—Donald Trump and Russian collusion.
Last week, after U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Jensen examined the Flynn record at the request of Attorney General William Barr, the Justice Department concluded that the abuse of Mr. Flynn’s rights was so egregious that it dropped the case.
What are Americans supposed to conclude when this event comes in the wake of Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s embarrassing report of how senior officials at the FBI and Justice used foreign intelligence warrants to crush Carter Page, a Trump campaign functionary?
Before that, the public dutifully read endless newspaper column inches about the pursuit by James Comey’s FBI of the manifestly preposterous Steele dossier (if this wasn’t a conspiracy theory, the phrase has no meaning), followed by Mr. Mueller’s team of Beltway lawyers ransacking lives to output a thick volume of unproven collusion suspicions, then handing it off to Adam Schiff’s House Intelligence Committee for more iterations of dragnet subpoenas, culminating in the wasted weeks of a Senate impeachment tFrom: Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, (MEDDLY)

"Cool as a cucumber for 11 straight hours of questions"
I need to download that Hearing and watch it again, just to wonder how IDIOTS decided to vote for a complete Senile f***tard who now is partially responsible for 86 thousand deaths (still more to come).
