No Sir! No Aidin' and Abettin' Up in Here!

Diogenes Middle Finger

The wagon-circling campaign to protect Obama administration and intelligence community officials who surveilled Donald Trump and his transition team during his presidential campaign and post-victory transition is moving into hyperdrive. On Monday, CNN’s Don Lemon proclaimed that “there is no evidence whatsoever” supporting Donald Trump’s claim about having been “spied on illegally” (note the inclusion of the word “illegally,” which is crucial), and declared that he would not “aid and abet the people who are trying to misinform you.”

Lemon’s stridency as he delivered his rant on CNN appeared to betray “he protests too much” behavior, while subsequent events have further undermined his there’s-nothing-there position. Try as they might, it seems that Lemon and his establishment press cohorts will have a hard time turning these and likely additional future bitter developments relating to Team Obama’s election campaign and Trump transition conduct into lemonade.
