White House Chief of Staff John Kelly said on Monday that a special counsel should be appointed to investigate the decision by the Hillary Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee to help fund opposition research that eventually became the dossier on President Donald Trump’s ties to Russia.
Fox News’ Laura Ingraham asked Kelly if a special counsel should look into the funding of the dossier.
“I think probably as a layman looking at this kind of thing, we need to find someone who’s very very objective who can get to the bottom of these accusations, I think it’s important,” Kelly replied. “Again, the American people have an absolute right to know these things unless things are classified.”
The chief of staff also said that the indictments of Paul Manafort and Rick Gates stemmed from activities that took place from before the campaign, ignoring the guilty plea of campaign adviser George Papadopolous, who told investigators he talked to a Russia-linked professor about “dirt” on Clinton. Kelly said that there was no “collusion” between the Trump campaign and Russia.
Still, Kelly told Ingraham that the probe has been “very distracting” for the President.
Wraithdom is a brutally sad (sad!) thing to watch.
A special counsel (A SPECIAL COUNSEL) should look into campaign activities because… people just oughta know unless it’s classified? How about your boss’s tax returns, John?
One good thing about most jarheads is that they usually know when to shut their mouths and quit showing their ignorance.
“Still, Kelly told Ingraham that the probe has been “very distracting” for the President”
Good lord, if you are worried about the §resident being distracted, cover the mirrors in the White House. It is a start.
Kelly seems to have a lot invested in keeping the Traitor-in-Chief from getting found out. Why is that? Is it possible that Kelly is also a Russian asset?
It would be irresponsible not to speculate.
PS: Fuck you, Kelly, you traitor-enabler. I don’t believe in Hell, but I hope I’m wrong, because that’s where you’ll end up
PPS: I thought Bob Haldeman was the worst CoS in modern history, but traitor-enabler Kelly is doing his best to take that “honor” away
I LOVE this quote from the White House chief of staff. We can resurrect it when the inevitable talk about Mueller’s illegitimacy and overreach is uttered by his boss.
