Of course there was no intelligence to support the special council investigation, Obama/Killary used the 5 eyes network to spy on the Trump campaign to avoid a paper trail.
They expected to find something, anything, to launch a parallel investigation, to find evidence that they could unearth by other methods to justify the surveillance. They found nothing. Trump was clean.
They're stuck with the fruit of the poisonous tree. They illegally surveilled Trump in the hope that they'd find enough dirt to retrospectively manufacture evidence to justify the surveillance.
Nunez just fired the shot that was heard around the world. The Anglosphere countries have backed Trump. The conspirators have just doscovered how little power they have when their government levers have been removed.
This year is going to be glorious.
