I'd like to think that there are at least a couple of dozen Republicans freaking the fuck out right now.

 

[PJV3]

I'm hoping this is the beginning of the end.

 

[Mattenth]

In before nothing will come out of this.

So, response to the firing, or already planned activity?

Already planned if you believe the old reports of grand juries being convened in NY and Eastern Virginia...

To be honest, I'm a little terrified... The rumor mill is that they're going after the entire Republican party...

I hope the nation's soul can recover from Trump in my lifetime.

Specifically

Agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigations were in Annapolis Thursday to investigate an organization with offices in the vicinity of Main Street, a spokesperson for the bureau confirmed.

Media reports on Twitter linked the site of the activity to the address of a Republican fundraising and consulting firm. FBI officials wouldn't confirm whether their investigation was linked to the organization.

Based on name, photo and location I'm guessing:

Please tell me this is linked to Donald Dump?

The party of patriots everyone. Nothing would make me happier than to see the traitors in the GOP get their comeuppance. It wasn't enough to sell us out to our own wealthy elite, they had to sell us out to the wealthy elite of hostile nations as well.

 

[Nekofrog]

There are Republicans in power having literal palpations right now.

 

[Sephzilla]

You ask for miracles, Theo, I give you the F.B.I.

 

[Zolo]

If I remember right, something like this was expected from the FBI. I hope it didn't give time to clean up before this happened.

 

[Danneee]

I imagine the remaining members of the FBI standing around a meeting table, all in solemn silence, when one of the gets a smirk on his face and looks around at everyone.

"Let's fuck em up."

The remaining members?

 

[Abstrusity]

Rip and tear until it is done.

Judging by some of the sourced comments saying people within the FBI weren't going to take this declaration of war lightly (firing Comey), I imagine this might've expedited the process, but they still had a plan for it anyway.

Nah, if this operation is as large as it's looking, this has been planned for a long time, but I'm sure the first FBI agent in muttered, 'Hail Comey,' under his breath to whoever the unlucky first person was they met.

 

[Lonewulfeus]

The head of this group Kelley Rogers lists a gambling venture as an employer on his FEC filing. Would be fairly easy to launder money that way.

i was thinking the same thing. I dunno why people keep records of illegal activity in the first place though.

This post just gave me a small boost of adrenaline. Urge to rip and tear...rising.

 

[Bluenoser]

Nah, he's throwing chairs at walls guaranteed.

Good, hopefully it leads to a massive heart attack.

 

[Doomshroom]

please find something!

 

[Lord Frieza]

Please tell me this is linked to Donald Dump?

This is something that could, potentially, affect the entire party since this firm seems to deal in marketing for the entire GOP if I'm understanding it right

[wisdom0wl]

I hope this all makes a great movie some day.

I need a political thriller based loosely on dipshit donald and his legion of doom vs the FBI with a J edgar Hoover director.

I'm not discounting that it is likely the fundraising firm, especially with the developing story giving more credence.

Her article specifically cites the twitter post and then says "FBI is saying they are doing a thing"

Do you know how much shit is on Main Street?

I don't think you are getting the idea of a second source citing the first source.

 

[Felix Lighter]

These guys really go the extra mile for their candidates.

This is straight out of House of Cards.

 

[The Technomancer]

I don't expect this to link to Trump that much. Hey it's some "misappropriation of funds" that sinks some low level mooks though

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

Just hypothetically speaking here but let's say they find enough damning evidence to impeach Trump and overthrow the GOP entirely based on their findings, who becomes president in that scenario?

 

[louiedog]

I haven't been there in a long time, but doesn't Annapolis have some really touristy shops?

I hope a news crew accidentally shoots some b-roll of a guy in a Female Body Inspector t-shirt.

Well, I mean, we now have pics of the actual building being tapered off by the FBI. I think we're good with sourcing now lol

It doesn't work like that. GOP would still be in power.

Nope. Same way no special elections will happen it doesn't work like that.

 

[Kaban]

Keep in mind that this might be not directly related to Trump. Not holding my breath here.

I mean, this is a total fantasy thing that isn't going to happen, but...I dunno? Nancy Pelosi, I guess. At that point, I think Congress would just call for a new election, though.

Well shit lol! Yeah I don't really have any idea how it works, I just want this Trump/GOP nightmare to end

 

[Trey]

Y'all gotta calm down. No way one raid of a strategic group will bring down anyone substantial, nevermind the President of the Uninted States.

I appreciate your skepticism. I was almost getting hyped, but I'm slowly calming down. Time to go play something and come back to see if anything happened.

 

[Fenderputty]

What a fucking wild day. It's been slow for me at work and I can't un-glue myself from the computer to even eat. I'm starting too. lol

 

[Sane_Man]

This is all very exciting.

 

[WedgeX]

So best case scenario is investigation of money laundering or illegal foreign money?
