John Brennan is the epitome of a Leftist liar whose primary
goal is to bring down President Trump by hook or by crook.
Justin Smith points out the hypocrisy demonstrating Brennan
is much worthier of the title of TRAITOR than President Trump. Indeed, Brennan
has actual evidence against him unlike President Trump. Accusations against
Trump are based on proven lies and Leftist wishful thinking.
Freedom of speech is one thing, but nowhere does the First
Amendment protect criminals from the consequences of their real-world
traitorous actions against America and the President of the United States. As
John Brennan has wailed over President Trump's "unconstitutional"
action to revoke his security clearance on August 15th, his unrestrained,
untethered partisan attacks against President Trump and his willingness to weaponize
intelligence to advance the Democrats' Leftist agenda against our Republic,
along with his
integral role in subverting and undermining the Trump administration
through illegal means, sedition and espionage, have exposed him as a traitor to
America.
Former CIA Director Brennan
fanned the flames of the Trump collusion story, alleging a
conspiracy with the Russians, and he pushed it and the false Steele Dossier to
President Obama and Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) who went on to leak it to the New
York Times, even though the dossier was paid for by the Democratic Party and
was clearly less than credible from the start. Such was his desire to help
Hillary Clinton and retain his position under a Clinton presidency, he also
teamed with British and Estonian spies using FISA warrant information to
initiate a multi-agency investigation into Presidential candidate Donald Trump,
while giving Susan Rice, another Hillary supporter, a pretense to spy on Trump
and his aides and advisors.
John Brennan has consistently given his voice to the most
radical anti-American factions of this country, along with other former
intelligence officers, such as Michael Hayden - former CIA head, James Comey -
former FBI director and James Clapper - former Director of National
Intelligence; as they leveled the sort of attacks against the President that
one often hears from Antifa. John Brennan and any ex-security official are not
entitled to retain the high privilege of a U.S. security clearance, once they
descend into a hostile position against the U.S. government and monetize that
clearance as Brennan has, in his new position of a CNN contributor and advisor.
President Trump, in a statement read by Sarah Sanders, on
August 15th 2018, said:
"I have a unique
constitutional responsibility to protect the nation's classified information.
... any benefits that senior officials might glean from consultations with Mr.
Brennan are now outweighed by the risks posed by his erratic conduct and
behavior. Historically, former heads of intelligence and law enforcement
agencies have been allowed to retain access to classified information after
their government service [to] consult with their successors regarding matters
about which they may have special insights and as a professional courtesy.
Neither of these justifications supports Mr. Brennan's continued access to
classified information ... any access granted to our nation's secrets should be
in furtherance of national not personal interest."
In light of the fact that there is no constitutional mandate
for high echelon federal officials to retain their security clearances and all
military and other officials lose their clearances upon leaving government
employment, it is erroneous and troubling to recently see 60
former CIA officials signing a letter on August 17th in opposition
to the President's move. President Trump has the absolute right and authority
to do so, and these officials seem more concerned with their own particular set
of circumstances, more so than keeping state secrets from the hands of known
traitors to the Constitution and the Republic, such as Brennan.
What happened to their oath to defend the Constitution
against all enemies "both foreign and domestic"? If ever I've
witnessed a domestic enemy, it is John Brennan and his cohorts and co-conspirators,
whose actions violated the U.S. Constitution in a most egregious manner.
It also goes to show how deep the Deep State really runs in
this country, when one hears men like Navy Admiral William McRaven, who oversaw
the mission to kill Osama bin Laden, call the skunk Brennan "a
man of unparalleled integrity".
Joseph DiGenova, former U.S. Attorney for the District of
Columbia, recently exclaimed:
"[Brennan] is the real
traitor. What he did and ... said recently about the president of the United States
is despicable. [Brennan] is personally responsible for the leaking of unmasked
information ... the sharing of false information to U.S. intelligence sources
to get FISA warrants ... the sharing of false information with American
intelligence agencies.”
It's worth noting that Brennan, the very man accusing
President Trump of treason, voted
for Gus Hall, the USA Communist Party head, for President, at the
height of the Cold War in 1976, when the Soviet Union actually wanted to
destroy America. He admitted as much, in a CNN
interview in September of 2016 with Tal Kopan. I don't know what
anyone else calls that, but it sure looks like treason to me.
A supporter of communism, Brennan brought into the CIA a
cabal of subversives and gave them plum positions from which to gather and leak
political espionage on President Trump. He bastardized standards so that these
left-wing activists could burrow into career positions. Under the guise of
their phony professionalism, they presented their politicized judgements as
"non-partisan."
James Clapper, former DNI, has similarly accused Trump of
treason, on air, but has produced no proof. If he and others are suggesting
that their security clearance has allowed them to access incriminating
evidence, they should say so, or shut their lying mouths
Brennan is about to be hoisted on his own petard, due to his
illegal programs and domestic spying and lying to Congress and the American
people, under oath on numerous occasions. Rather than being a guardian of
democratic ideas and decency, he has been a miserable traitor to his oath to
protect and defend the Constitution and America, and if President Trump is half
the man that many believe him to be, it will be hard for Brennan to avoid going
to trial, especially with documents in the hands of Congressional investigators
that expose Brennan's ringleader role in the, to date, unsuccessful attempt to
derail President Trump, before and after the 2016 election. And if there's a
pound of justice left anywhere in our American system, Brennan will die in a
federal prison, unless he opts to swallow a capsule of cyanide first.
Our nation can survive many catastrophes, but it cannot
survive her traitors well, and John Brennan is one of them, who has brought
great harm to our republic, along with his co-conspirators. All America,
the part that still loves America, must demand that Brennan be charged and
prosecuted for violating numerous federal laws and his oath to the U.S.
Constitution.
The Dems, Leftist MSM and Never Trumpershave vastly different interpretation of the
Carter Page FISA warrant than Conservatives, Conservative Media and
Pro-Trumpers. Here is a conclusion from the considered Conservative think tank Foreign
Policy Research Institute (FPRI):
What clearly is not shown in the
Page FISA applications is any sustenance for the conspiratorial views of
untoward political bias that are the central theme of the Nunes memo. Then,
again, this is not particularly surprising given that Nunes, in an interview
with Fox News in February, admitted that he himself had not read the Page FISA
application (presumably, any of them)—a distancing from the facts that he has
continued to employ even as he hectors the Department of Justice about its
cooperation in supplying highly sensitive materials like these FISA
applications to the House Intelligence Committee for purposes that seem to have
virtually nothing to do with legitimate congressional oversight.[8] While the
Page FISA applications, with all their redactions, surely cannot answer every
question about the investigative activities that led to the decision to seek
FISA authorization to surveil Carter Page, there seems enough in these 412
pages to consign to the nearest dumpster the Nunes Memo and its misguided
allegations of political bias. (The
Carter Page FISA Applications: Much Risk to FISA, Little New Insight, But a
Rebuff to the Nunes Narrative; By George W. Croner;
FPRI; 7/23/18)
If Mr. Croner has a Conservative perspective, certainly suggests
he is a Never Trumper. If you read
the redacted FISA Warrant and understand who the cryptic disguised
identities are, then you understand Croner’s conclusion is propagandized at
worst or blindly self-deluded at best.
The above should greatly aid you who is lying to the
American public and who is telling the truth about the Page
FISA Warrant.
If you understand that a clandestine goal is behind this
FISA Warrant to politically prevent the
election of Donald Trump to POTUS or if Trump was elected, then to fabricate
evidence for impeachment proceedings in the House. This is essentially a
cabalistic coup against the Office of President of the United States.
I do believe such operations falls under the category if
High Crimes and Misdemeanors. This is the measuring line for treason according
to the U.S. Constitution.
Text of Article 3, Section 3:
Treason against the United States,
shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their
Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason
unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on
Confession in open Court.
Treason, or betraying the United
States, is making war against the United States, or being loyal to an enemy of
the United States, or giving that enemy help or comfort. Nobody can be found
guilty of treason unless two people describe the same obvious act of treason in
open court, or unless the accused person says in open court that she/he did it.
Congress decides how to punish treason. If someone is guilty of treason, their
family cannot be punished. The disgrace of the traitor, and any fines they owe,
will go with them to their death, but not past that. (Ibid.)
Friends, a coup is making war against the United States.
The next question then is: Who has been involved in
utilizing fabricated evidence to prevent the election of the Chief Executive of
the U.S. government and/or fabricating evidence or knowingly use fabricated
evidence to impeach a sitting President?
John Brennan Traitor
A recent
post showed that John Brennan’s political bias and baseless
accusations of treason against President Trump speculates Brennan is a traitor
– NOT Trump.
It is coming out Brennan was highly influential in pushing
the Steele Dossier as fact rather than a fabrication lies spun by Christopher
Steele who indicated his sources were Russian.
Hannity said he thinks Brennan knew
all about the Democrat-funded “dossier” of unproven claims about Trump that was
used to obtain a warrant to spy on the Trump campaign and helped prompt the
special counsel investigation.
“I look at a guy like Brennan, it
happened on his watch, I think he probably knew all about the dossier. His
involvement in this is going to be very interesting,” Hannity said. “Do we
really want to live in a country where the Senate leader on the Democratic side
says you better not ever say anything bad about the Intel community?”
DiGenova responded: “Sean, I want
to talk about two people. We only have so much time — John Brennan and Leon
Panetta. John Brennan is a traitor and I will tell you why. He is the real
traitor. What he did and what he has had recently about the president of the
United States is despicable.”
The former U.S. attorney said
Brennan “is personally responsible for the leaking of unmasked information, he
was responsible for the sharing of false information to U.S. intelligence
sources to get FISA warrants.”
“He is personally responsible for
the sharing of false information with American intelligence agencies, and he –
I challenge him to a debate at the National Press Club for one hour, two hours,
three hours about his role in the entire pre-election.”
…
Former Secret Service agent Dan
Bongino said Brennan’s testimony that he didn’t know who commissioned the
dossier isn’t plausible because “the CIA has a central role in the verification
of foreign assets and information we get from foreign assets.”
And after Sen. Dianne Feinstein,
D-Calif., accused the CIA of spying on members of the Senate by hacking into
computers used by her intelligence committee’s staffers, Brennan said, “Let me
assure you the CIA was in no way spying on [the committee] or the Senate.”
There have been all sorts of
information flying around about Spygate since the beginning of 2018, but this
release, though redacted, clears several things up. Check out the last page, it
makes it clear that that Spygate's trail leads right back to Hillary
Clinton. (5
Takeaways From FISA Document Release; By TTN Staff; Trump Train News; 7/23/18)
And here:
Hillary Clinton personally
authorized her campaign chairman, John Podesta, to launch the controversial
Donald Trump-Russian dossier project, according to a senior Clinton campaign
strategist who worked for Hillary in both her 2008 and 2016 presidential bids.
“Hillary approved Podesta’s
decision to pay for the dossier by funneling campaign funds through Marc
Elias,” the strategist said, referring to the lawyer who represented both the
Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
“The dossier was delivered to the
Clinton campaign by [the opposition research firm] Fusion GPS in the summer of
2016, and Hillary read it and was thrilled by its salacious content,” the
strategist continued.
“She bragged about it so openly
that many of the people in her Brooklyn campaign headquarters were aware of the
existence of the dossier. Hillary referred to it as her ‘secret weapon’ that
would ‘blow Trump out of the water.’” (The
Hillary Dossier Connection; By Edward Klein; Breitbart; 11/8/17)
And more:
We know that the Steele dossier was
paid for by Hillary and the DNC. We know that Steele supposedly
relied on paid Russian informants. We know that Comey
testified in Congress on June 6, 2017 that the dossier
was unverified.
Now we learn that Hillary's boys,
Blumenthal and Shearer, supplied information to Steele for his dossier.
In addition to paying for the Steele
dossier, Hillary helped write it.
Before we knew that Hillary helped
write the dossier, it was clear that the dossier was insufficient to establish
probable cause for the FISA warrants. Comey testified that the
dossier was unverified, relied on paid Russian informants, and the warrant
applications did not state that Hillary and the DNC paid Steele.
Limbaugh began by reading a Yahoo
News story from June 20: “Obama cyber chief confirms
‘stand down’ order against Russian cyber-attacks in summer 2016 — The Obama
White House’s chief cyber official testified Wednesday that proposals he was
developing to counter Russia’s attack on the U.S. presidential election were
put on a ‘back burner’ after he was ordered to ‘stand down’ his efforts in the
summer of 2016.”
…
“They knew the Russians were
hacking. They knew Russians were engaging in cyber warfare, and the Obama White
House chief cyber official testified that he was told to stand down. So Obama
didn’t do anything about the Russians! Obama was telling everybody the Russians
could not hack the presidential election. Obama was telling people that it was
too massive and widespread and intricate, it couldn’t be done.”
…
… Why did Obama want his own
administration to stand down and not do anything? Could we maybe use the word
‘treasonous’? That Obama was willing to stand down and stand aside and let the
Russians continue meddling and tampering and whatever?
“All of this that we’re talking
about happened before Trump was even president. All of this happened before
Trump — in many cases — even became a candidate,” he noted. “Somehow, all of
this is Donald Trump’s fault, not standing up to the Russians. Here are two
left-wing socialist reporters, David Corn and Michael Isikoff, writing that
Obama told his cyber security people to ‘stand down’ in the face of Russian
cyberattacks in 2016. (Limbaugh

Obama’s DNI head James Clapper was on CNN recently claiming
his boss Comrade Obama was behind the cabal trying to set up Trump before and
after Election 2016:
President Obama’s former
Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, came clean on CNN and stated
that former President Obama was behind spying on President Trump!
James Clapper was on CNN yesterday
and he stated that Obama was behind spying on President Trump and all the
corrupt and criminal actions involving the government, including the Mueller
investigation –

President Trump turned the Leftist press and the Dems inside
out by letting us know that several Obamanite high level comrades are being
considered to have their Security Clearance stripped away. The implication is
these Obamanites may be a part of the conspiracy cabal trying to pull this
treasonous coup against the Trump Administration:
President Trump is looking into
revoking the security clearances of several top Obama-era intelligence and law
enforcement officials, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said Monday,
accusing them of having "politicized" or "monetized" their
public service.
…
Sanders said Trump is also looking
into the clearances for other former officials and Trump critics, including
former FBI Director James Comey; former Deputy FBI Director Andrew
McCabe; former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper;
former National Security Adviser Susan Rice and former CIA Director Michael
Hayden (who also worked under President George W. Bush).
Those not of the Executive Branch swamp undoubtedly smell a
treasonous coup among those who might have their Security Clearance stripped
even if such is more symbolic than actionable.
There former and current Obama holdovers in the DOJ and FBI
whose actions indicate the promotion of the fake Steele Dossier and the
Dossier’s use to get a FISA Warrant to spy on the Trump campaign by making spy
accusations against Carter Page.
On Monday morning, President Trump renewed his calls for
the Mueller witch hunt to end after the Carter Page FISA docs confirmed what we
knew to be true — the entire Russian collusion hoax was made up and funded by
Hillary Clinton and executed by Obama’s corrupt DOJ and FBI.
President Trump did not hold back. He went after Crooked
Hillary, Obama’s gang, the corrupt FBI/DOJ and Mueller.
Trump tweeted: So we now find out that it was indeed
the unverified and Fake Dirty Dossier, that was paid for by Crooked Hillary
Clinton and the DNC, that was knowingly & falsely submitted to FISA and
which was responsible for starting the totally conflicted and discredited
Mueller Witch Hunt!
So

President Trump then quoted fearless warrior, President
of Judicial Watch Tom Fitton.
Trump tweeted: “It was classified to cover up
misconduct by the FBI and the Justice Department in misleading the Court by
using this Dossier in a dishonest way to gain a warrant to target the Trump
Team. This is a Clinton Campaign document. It was a fraud and a hoax designed
to target Trump….

Round two….and the DOJ, FBI and Obama Gang need to be
held to account. Source #1 was the major source. Avoided talking about it being

In his final tweet, the President called for the Mueller’s
“discredited” witch hunt to be shut down.
Trump tweeted: …..”Carter Page wasn’t a spy, wasn’t
an agent of the Russians – he would have cooperated with the FBI. It was a
fraud and a hoax designed to target Trump.” Tom Fitton @JudicialWatch A disgrace
to America. They should drop the discredited Mueller Witch Hunt now!
.....”Carter Page wasn’t a spy, wasn’t an agent of the

A disgrace to America. They should drop the discredited Mueller Witch Hunt
now!
Although the documents were dishonestly and heavily
redacted, they confirm the FBI and DOJ misled the FISA courts.
Obama’s Deep State FBI and DOJ obtained a FISA warrant on
Carter Page in October of 2016 and three subsequent renewals in order to spy on
Trump’s campaign and transition team.
Comey, Rosenstein, McCabe and Sally Yates all signed the
FISA applications even though Hillary’s fraudulent Russia dossier was used as a
pretext to obtain the warrants.
The docs also reveal the FBI used anti-Trump media reports
from liberal news sites in order to obtain the Carter Page FISA warrants.
President of Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton called the
circular evidence of Hillary’s phony dossier leaked to the media–then media
articles citing the dossier in turn being used to obtain a FISA warrant a
“self-licking ice cream cone.”
Self-licking ice cream cone.FISA docs cite Clinton-DNC Dossier, leak of
Dossier to media, and leak of Dossier info through Dem Senator Harry Reid.
Corrupt dishonesty to get court approval to spy on @RealDonaldTrump
team. https://t.co/7KGY3TOZR7
Both Mueller and Rosenstein need to be fired and prosecuted.
Rosenstein signed off on the FISA applications knowing Hillary’s phony dossier
was used as evidence to obtain a FISA warrant and Mueller used Hillary’s
dossier as evidence to hunt down Trump’s associates.

Kevin Shipp is a former CIA Officer. Why should you care? I
found an interview in which Shipp is confidant an indictment is in the works
that implicates Crooked Hillary and others.
As a Conservative who believes the Clintons have escaped
justice for decades, this welcome news. As a person that observed all elitist
Dems skate away from even the most obvious crimes, I’ll believe it when I see
it.
And yet Shipp’s credentials lend some hope he is correct:
Kevin Shipp is a
retired CIAspook and whistleblower.
He has exposed the US deep
stateand charged the CIAwith
systematically use of unconstitutional and illegal measures to terrorise
employees to prevent them from becoming whistleblowers. He has also charged
that "Hillary Clinton was running and is
running a global financial criminal syndicate. She was using these secret
servers to conduct Clinton financial money
laundering business."[1]
Background
Shipp was born in Laramie, Wyoming,
but his family moved to Falls Church, Virginia, where he has spent most of his
subsequent life. He studied at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia, where
studied biology. Later he also obtained a master's degree in forensic psycho
physiology at the Department of Defense Academy for Credibility Assessment.[citation needed]
Career
"Kevin Shipp, former CIA
Officer and Anti Terrorism expert,
held several high level positions in the CIA. He was assigned as a protective
agent for the Director of Central Intelligence, a counterintelligence
investigator, team leader protecting sensitive CIA assets from assassination,
manager of high risk Counter Terrorism Center protective operations, lead
instructor for members of allied governments, internal staff security
investigator and a polygraph examiner tasked with protecting the CIA from
foreign agent penetration. He is the recipient of two CIA Meritorious Unit
Citations, three Exceptional Performance Awards and a Medallion for overseas
covert operations. Shipp also supervised the Department of State Anti Terrorism
Assistance program and managed the protective detail assigned to the president
of Afghanistan following the US invasion."[2][3]
Shipp says that what Hillary Clinton did with her
charity and Uranium One while she was Secretary of State was a crime
for the history books. Shipp explains, “Hillary Clinton used this to
launder money in foreign banks so it wasn’t subject to U.S. laws, congressional
subpoenas, or FOIA demands for the evidence. This was done to
launder this money globally into the Clinton Foundation so the U.S. government
could not examine it at all.”
++++++
Whistleblower and former CIA officer Kevin Shipp stated
clearly that indictments are coming for Hillary Clinton and the deep state
because Donald Trump cannot be bribed. In an interview with USA Watchdog‘s Greg Hunter, Shipp says
this deep state espionage will eventually be exposed to the public.
During his discussion with Hunter, Shipp says that whatHillary
Clinton did with her charity and Uranium One while she was
Secretary of State was a crime for the history books. Shipp
explains, “Hillary Clinton used this to launder money in foreign banks so it
wasn’t subject to U.S. laws, congressional subpoenas, or FOIA demands for the
evidence. This was done to launder this money globally into the
Clinton Foundation so the U.S. government could not examine it at all.”
How did Hillary Clinton get away
with obvious crime with her unprotected server and the shady Uranium One deal? Shipp
says, “The most bizarre thing is the people who protected her from clear
felonious activity and violations of the Espionage Act. James Clapper, Director
of National Intelligence, was protecting her and leaking things to the media
and lying. You had John Brennan, Director of the CIA, protecting her by
starting a false investigation (on Trump) and stirring things up with this
(false/unverified) dossier. You had James Comey, Director of the FBI,
protecting her. . . . Then, you’ve got Peter Strzok protecting her, and now it
appears the United Kingdom GCHQ was using NSA information to target Donald
Trump and protect Hillary Clinton. You have to ask yourself … READ THE REST]
“Obviously [Hillary’s] not stupid, she is diabolical,”
says Shipp of Hillary Clinton’s decision to have an unsecured server as
Secretary of State. “She knew darn well what she was doing…the Clinton
Foundation is a global crime syndicate.”
Shipp continued saying, “we just found out
recently that…at least 30,000 of her emails went to a foreign entity that was
not on any of the distribution lists…they’re trying to figure out who that is
now…this reeks of espionage to me.”
“The most bizarre thing is the
people who protected her from clear felonious activity and violations of the
Espionage Act. James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, was
protecting her and leaking things to the media and lying. You had John
Brennan, Director of the CIA, protecting her by starting a false investigation
(on Trump) and stirring things up with this (false/unverified) dossier.
You had James Comey, Director of the FBI, protecting her. . . . Then, you’ve
got Peter Strzok protecting her, and now it appears the United Kingdom GCHQ was
using NSA information to target Donald Trump and protect Hillary
Clinton. You have to ask yourself what kind of power or connections
does this woman have to get all of these members of the Deep State, Shadow
Government to risk their own criminal penalties to protect her and try to get
her elected? That is the Shadow Government. That is the Deep
State. That is what is so chilling about this whole thing. . . . This is
deep. This is dark. This is as dark as it gets, and this is the
biggest espionage case involving government officials in the history of this
country.” -Kevin Shipp
Hunter then brings up the concerns most Americans have: no
one will go to jail because the government will never implicate themselves. In
response, Shipp points out that, this time, it will not be business as usual
for the “Deep State and Shadow Government.” It is
possible that the people involved in this massive espionage case will charges.
They are going to be brought to justice because Shipp says, “indictments are
coming because of Donald Trump coming into the White House from the
outside. Trump cannot be bribed.”

Now here is a collusion list that is sure to inspire massive
lying deflection with such beginning phrases as “But Trump did …”
Have you noticed that NOT one scintilla of corroborated
evidence has been produced to suggest that President Trump colluded with Russia
to win the 2016? My God! It’s 2018 and the Dems pulling all the stops and lies
to remove the President from Office.
AND YET, there is a huge (or YUGE) amount of public
information of not only collusion but also corruption within the Obama/Crooked
Hillary camp to steal the 2016 election or (in the blessed event that won Trump
won) impeach the President.
Willis L. Krumholz writing for The Federalist
illustrates a clear picture of actions that should lead to criminal
prosecution.
The intelligence bureaucracies spied
on the Donald Trump campaign: Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act
warrants were granted because of a Hillary Clinton-funded and unverified
document, national-security letters were issued to allow warrantless spying,
and the unprecedented but not-illegal-per-se unmasking of Trump officials’
conversations with non-U.S. persons was shockingly routine.
Yet the news of a CIA-connected human source operating as
far back as April or May of 2016 is about more thanjust
spying. It is the latest example in what now looks to be a long
line of attempted setups by the Clinton team, many times aided and abetted by
our intelligence bureaucracies.
These events should anger any red blooded American who
believes in representative democracy and the importance of the rule of
law. Let’s review eight examples.
1. CIA And FBI ‘Human Intelligence’
We’ve just learned about Stefan
Halper, a CIA-connected Cambridge
professor who — working for the FBI — contacted Trump advisers Carter Page,
George Papadopoulos, and Sam Clovis during the 2016 election, to investigate
what they might know about suspicions of collusion with Russia. Former Trump
campaign aide Michael
Caputo has claimed that he was approached by an unknown second
U.S. intelligence community asset in early May of 2016.
The FBI says that the Russia investigation began in July,
because of something Papadopoulos said to an Australian diplomat in May.
Papadopoulos had supposedly
told the Australian diplomat something about Russia having information that
“could be damaging” to Clinton. Papadopoulos allegedly heard this from Joseph
Mifsud, a Maltese-born professor who allegedly claimed to have close ties with
Russia.
Special counsel Robert Mueller’s team charged Papadopoulos
— unconvincingly —
with lying to investigators, because Papadopoulos said his contacts with Mifsud
began before he was on the Trump campaign. Actually, the contacts started after
he “learned he would be a foreign policy advisor for the campaign,” but before
the campaign made a public announcement that he was to be an advisor.
Mifsud is strangely now in hiding, possibly fearing for his
life. Lee Smithdetails Mifsud’s
ties to Western intelligence agencies, and Margot Cleveland suspects Mifsud
may have been a U.S. intelligence plant along with Halper.
2. The Trump Tower Meeting
Whenever Democrats or David French types talk about Trump
and Russia collusion they look to the Trump Tower meeting as definitive proof.
There are several problems with that. First, no presidential campaign in
American history would pass up the chance of hearing evidence of crimes being
committed by their opponent, no matter the source. In fact, some would say
you’re doing the country a favor if you let everyone know that your opponent is
subject to blackmail from a not-so-friendly foreign power (just don’t have your
son and son-in-law sit in on the meeting).
More problematic is that Glenn Simpson — head of Fusion GPS,
the firm being paid by the Clinton campaign and the DNC to prove (or create)
ties between Trump and Russia — met with the two Russians who attended the
Trump Tower meeting both before and after the meeting. Simpson’s
excuse for doing so? Because he was working with the two Russians on a
different issue, the repeal of the anti-Kremlin Magnitsky Act.
In other words, at the very least, the firm that created the
dossier for Clinton and the DNC — using Russian intelligence sources — was the
same firm that was working with the Kremlin to repeal a law
passed by Congress because Putin’s thugs beat an innocent man to death in
Russian prison. At most, this was yet another setup.
3. Mike Flynn And The Logan Act
During the 2016 campaign, Democrats howled about the need to
prosecute Trump campaign officials under an obscure 1799 law called the Logan Act. Byron
York has documented that
this was the pretext Obama-appointed former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates
used to unmask former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn’s side of
highly-appropriate phone conversations with the Russian ambassador that
occurred during the transition period, and then send FBI agents to interview
Flynn about those conversations.
Although the FBI has
tried to cover this up, we now know that the agents who interviewed
Flynn — including the disgraced and hugely anti-Trump Peter Strzok — didn’t
believe that Flynn had lied. Nevertheless, Mueller’s team
charged Flynn with lying to the FBI. After Mueller’s charge had nearly
bankrupted Flynn, and after Mueller threatened to go after Flynn’s son, Flynn
pled guilty to lying to the FBI.
4. Andrew McCabe Sets Up Reince Priebus
After an intelligence briefing at the White House in early
2017, former FBI number two Andrew McCabe asked
to meet privately with former White House Chief of Staff
Reince Priebus. A story had just dropped — anonymously sourced from multiple
intelligence community officials — that Trump aides had multiple contacts with
Russian intelligence during the election.
McCabe wanted to tell Priebus that the FBI didn’t think the
story was true. Of course, Priebus asked McCabe if the FBI could publicly say
just that. McCabe said he would have to check. But former FBI Director James
Comey called Priebus to say that the FBI couldn’t publicly shoot down the
story.
Days later, the “breaking news” on CNN was that the White
House had tried to pressure the FBI into batting down the reports on supposed
ties between Trump and Russia. So not only was the White House supposedly
colluding, now there were allegations of obstruction of justice.
5. Brennan Shops Dossier To Harry Reid
Former CIA Director John Brennan, who may have been the U.S.
intelligence official to first
push an investigation into the Trump campaign, briefed
then-Sen. Harry Reid on the Clinton-funded dossier in August 2016.
The briefing did two things: First, it lent some legitimacy
to the dossier, and second, it got Reid to pressure the FBI to not drop the
investigation. The briefing had the added bonus of allowing Reid to speak
publicly about Trump’s ties to Russia, as if he had just gained access to
groundbreaking proof of collusion, which was of course covered by the media.
6. Comey And Clapper Give CNN A Reason To Publish The
Dossier
Comey, at the behest of former Director of National
Intelligence James Clapper, briefed Trump on one of the allegations in the
dossier, but not on the main allegation in the dossier, who had funded the
dossier, or how that dossier was being used by the FBI. Nevertheless, this
briefing looks like one more setup,
meant to allow CNN to report on the existence of the dossier as if it were
highly verified and being seriously examined by U.S. intelligence community
officials.
Clapper then leaked information
about the dossier and the briefings to CNN, and later looks to have lied about
those leaks to Congress. Amazingly, Clapper has previously lied to Congress.
Clapper now works for CNN.
7. The Jeff Sessions Recusal
Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from the
Russia investigation after anonymous intelligence community leaks about his
contacts with Russians. Specifically, Sessions — as a senator — met with former
Russian ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak in his D.C. office. In another
meeting, Sessions gave a speech and a gaggle of diplomats — including Kislyak —
talked with him for several minutes as he was coming off the stage.
The idea behind the unnecessary recusal
was that somehow Sessions had misrepresented these contacts to former Sen. Al
Franken. Actually,
Franken — referring to one of many CNN stories sourced by anonymous officials
about supposed Trump and Russia collusion — had clearly asked about whether
Sessions had colluded with any Russians during the campaign, not whether
Sessions had ever met any Russians.
8. Rosenstein Recommends Comey Firing, Appoints Special
Counsel
But with Jeff Sessions out of the way, Deputy Attorney
General Rod Rosenstein became the acting attorney general for all things Russia-investigation-related.
Rosenstein then recommended Comey’s
firing, and then — overseeing the investigation that stemmed from that firing —
appointed Robert Mueller as special counsel. Mueller, a former FBI Director,
happened to be a close associate of Comey and Rosenstein, and would surely want
to protect the interests of the FBI and the Justice Department.
Taken together, these setups indicate a massive effort to
aid the Clinton campaign before the election.
After all, the entire theory of Trump-Russia collusion originated
with the Clinton campaign in the lead-up to the Democrat
National Convention, when it became clear that the DNC had experienced a
document theft. That document theft was highly embarrassing to Clinton and the
DNC, as it revealed that the DNC had been systematically stacking the deck
against Bernie Sanders. The immediate goal, then, was to both distract from the
mistreatment of Bernie, and completely peel the GOP national security
establishment away from Trump. The Clinton campaign was successful in both of
these efforts.
Later, during the general election, whenever Hillary’s
misdeeds came up, Clinton responded by pointing to Trump’s nefarious ties with
Russia. Distasteful as it may seem, this was Machiavellian politics 101. Any
focus group of voters would have told the Clinton people that Hillary was the
steady hand, but that they had ethical concerns about her, and also sought a
change from the status quo. The way to counteract this reluctance was to paint
Hillary’s opponent as ethically challenged, too, and paint his alternative to
the status quo as downright dangerous. (You might say that Trump was an easy
target here, but look what the Obama-campaign did to Romney.)
Dirty tricks are of course not new to American politics. But
the apparent involvement of the U.S. intelligence community in these setups is
deeply troubling. Democrats, intelligence bureaucrats, and the media have told
us that the investigation started with Page. When that fell apart, they said
the investigation started with Papadopoulos. Now,
the Papadopoulos origination story is falling
apart too.
It now looks like the corrupt and highly partisan
upper-echelon of the U.S. intelligence community started their preliminary
investigation as soon as the Clinton people — in the run-up to the Democratic
convention — began claiming
that there were ties between Trump and Russia. During this same
time, Clinton and the DNC paid Fusion GPS, which hired Chris Steele to dig
up ties between Trump and Russia.
This is nothing more than prosecutorial
point and shoot, where corrupt big-government politicians send the
corrupt and sympathetic federal bureaucracy after their political enemies. It’s
no different than what happened with Lois Lerner at the Internal Revenue
Service. Democrats gave speeches and sent official letters, Obama implied he
wanted action, and dutiful bureaucrats did the rest.
With the intelligence agencies on board, legitimacy was lent
to the Hillary Clinton campaign’s wild claims. All the media had to do in the
weeks before Election Day was to frantically report that Trump’s campaign was
being investigated, and that a document containing allegations of Trump-Russia
ties (the “dossier”) was being seriously looked into by intelligence officials.
That fed back to the voters, and certainly made many feel a little bit better
about voting for Clinton, or not voting for Trump.
After the election, it has been all about C.Y.A., because
these corrupt bureaucrats leading these intelligence bureaucracies never
imagined Trump would win. Here, ladies and gentleman, is your real election
interference and collusion: between the massive, all-powerful and unaccountable
intelligence bureaucracies, the media, the Obama administration, and the
Clinton campaign.
