A career criminal who tampered with the 2016 election is being put on trial in Israel—for unrelated crimes—but remains free of any federal investigation (that we know of) in America, despite the evidence of his election interference being incontrovertible. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/netanyahu-stands-trial-charges-bribery-fraud-breach-trust-n1212806
PS/ The Stone search warrants and the involvement of George Birnbaum—Netanyahu's chief of staff—in linking the Trump campaign to Israeli intel expert Joel Zamel, who confessed to Trump adviser George Nader he conducted an illegal campaign to aid Trump, confirm Netanyahu's crimes.
PS2/ There is *zero* ambiguity—*no* "fuzz"—on the Stone search warrants. Stone is communicating with an Israeli agent who represents he is speaking for the "PM" (Netanyahu), even as Stone is speaking for Trump in setting up a meeting to get Israeli intel to hurt Hillary Clinton.
PS3/ If this country weren't lawless, Netanyahu would be under indictment *here* as well as in Jerusalem, and (no surprise) for some of the same offenses: bribery and fraud. He is a dangerous criminal who should never be allowed inside the United States ever again. *That simple*.
PS4/ None of this is the "bad part." The bad part is because we took *no* steps to punish Netanyahu and *no* steps to protect America, the Israelis—and Saudis and Emiratis using Israeli tech—*will* interfere with the 2020 election. And why shouldn't they? No one's stopping them.
PS5/ I can only pray that *some day* U.S. media and U.S. intelligence will catch up with the *hundreds* of pages of evidence of Israeli malfeasance already published in *multiple* NYT bestselling books about the 2016 election and its aftermath. Maybe by 2030 they'll catch TF up?
PS6/ The part that makes me *really* angry is that, *because* U.S. media declined to do its job and report on Israeli election interference, those of us who *did the open-records research* and *curated scattered major-media reports* were made to look like *we* were in left field.
PS7/ Getting cyberattacked by your friends isn't *better* than getting cyberattacked by your foes—it's *worse*. Why is this so confusing to American media, which (across hundreds of reports) actually *has* told the story of Israeli election interference, but won't acknowledge it?
PS8/ Netanyahu *is* Trump. From NBC: "On [Netanyahu's] arrival [in court] he claimed that he was the victim of a deep state-type conspiracy by media, police, prosecutors and judges out to oust him."

Imagine being such a coward you try to blame others for what *you* brazenly did.
