Looks like today is zero day. (Trump's Tweets)
Twitter ^ | 8/16/18 | struggle

Posted on 08/16/2018 6:21:47 PM PDT by struggle

I noticed a very different tack from Trump tonight. He's making all the allegations we know about publicly. It seems that this might be the day he turns and reveals everything bit by bit until the midterms.

"“The FBI received documents from Bruce Ohr (of the Justice Department & whose wife Nelly worked for Fusion GPS).” Disgraced and fired FBI Agent Peter Strzok. This is too crazy to be believed! The Rigged Witch Hunt has zero credibility."

"“While Steele shopped the document to multiple media outlets, he also asked for help with a RUSSIAN Oligarch.” Catherine Herridge of @FoxNews @LouDobbs In other words, they were colluding with Russia!"

"“Very concerned about Comey’s firing, afraid they will be exposed,” said Bruce Ohr. DOJ’s Emails & Notes show Bruce Ohr’s connection to (phony & discredited) Trump Dossier. A creep thinking he would get caught in a dishonest act. Rigged Witch Hunt!"

".@TuckerCarlson speaking of John Brennan: “How did somebody so obviously limited intellectually get to be CIA Director in the first place?” Now that is a really good question! Then followed by “Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut is a FAKE War Hero...” So true, a total Fake!"

I have a feeling he's setting the table for next week's testimony by Ohr, and I think Ohr is going to disclose everything. He's up a creek without an...oh forget it.

Its a behind closed door testimony, which means coffee, cake and friendly conversation.

definitely zero day when FakeNewsMSM - which has totally ignored all the Bruce Ohr/Christopher Steele revelations - is finally forced to acknowledge the story at least exists!!

both behind paywall -

Who is Bruce Ohr and why does Trump keep tweeting about him?
Washington Post-18 hours ago
Claim: “Bruce Ohr of the ‘Justice’ Department (can you believe he is still there) is accused of helping disgraced Christopher Steele ‘find dirt on Trump.’
Claimed by: Donald Trump
Fact check by Washington Post: Not the Whole Story

Little-Known Justice Dept. Official Makes Trump’s Security Clearance List
Highly Cited-New York Times-15 Aug. 2018
Mr. Ohr has been a target in the conservative attacks on the investigation into Russia’s attempts to disrupt the election and whether Mr. Trump’s associates conspired with that effort...
Mr. Ohr, who has not been found to have mishandled sensitive information, is married to Nellie Ohr, a former contractor for Fusion GPS, the research company that worked with a British spy named Christopher Steele to compile a dossier of damaging information about Mr. Trump during his candidacy.

VIDEO: 16 Aug: Fox News: ‘Like They Were All Best Friends’: Rep. Jordan on Emails Between Dossier Author, DOJ Official, Fusion GPS
The emails, first reported by The Hill last week, reveal Steele, a former British spy, kept in contact with Ohr even after the FBI cut ties with him as a source, with Steele continuing to send along information.
Ohr’s wife Nellie worked for Fusion GPS, which was hired by the Clinton campaign to compile the dossier of potentially damaging information against Trump. Jordan said the emails included both Ohrs, Steele and Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson.

“One of the interesting takeaways from those emails was just how close they were. ... It was like they were all best friends, and the number of times Bruce Ohr interacted with Christopher Steele and Glenn Simpson,” said Jordan, adding he will ask Ohr about the communications at closed-door House committee hearings in two weeks.
Jordan said Ohr’s name “keeps coming up” in relation to the dossier and he appears to have been a “key player.”
Jordan said former FBI agent Peter Strzok admitted at a recent House hearing that the FBI was receiving parts of the dossier from Ohr, who has since been demoted by the Justice Department.

“It is never supposed to work that way in the United States of America, but it did,” said Jordan, emphasizing that the dossier was then used as the basis for a warrant to surveil the Trump campaign...

another FakeNewsMSM outlet decides it’s time to at least admit there is a Bruce Ohr/Christopher Steele story. nothing to do with Hillary though:

16 Aug: New Yorker: Peter and Lisa and Andrew and Jill and Bruce and Nellie, or, Trump’s Trouble with Couples
By Amy Davidson Sorkin
The Russia investigation is where, at last, the Ohrs come in. Here is how Trump described their roles this week: “Bruce Ohr of the ‘Justice’ Department (can you believe he is still there) is accused of helping disgraced Christopher Steele ‘find dirt on Trump.’ Ohr’s wife, Nelly, was in on the act big time - worked for Fusion GPS on Fake Dossier.” The story is, of course, more complicated than that...

As The New Yorker’s Jane Mayer has reported, Steele has told close associates that he took it upon himself to show a copy of the dossier to an F.B.I. contact in London because he was so disturbed by its contents—and not because anyone connected to the Clinton campaign told him to...

At some point—exactly when is in dispute—he turned to Bruce Ohr, whom he had known even before Nellie Ohr signed on with Fusion, and who, in turn, got in touch with the F.B.I. Ohr also met with Glenn Simpson, a founder of Fusion GPS. Ohr’s exact role—conduit, booster, concerned colleague, helpful husband—and the question of how extensive his contacts with Peter Strzok, in particular, might have been, are contentious issues. Strzok, in his testimony last month, said that Ohr had provided “material” to the F.B.I...

Or, seen from another angle, Donald’s people fired Andrew and Peter, drove Lisa to quit her job, and demoted Bruce because all of them kept asking questions about Vladimir, while Donald pilloried Nellie and Jill. Donald then called Omarosa a dog, and told John that he couldn’t see any more secrets.

Not quite clear? There will be chance to review, as more and more hearings are scheduled, and perhaps even a final test, with questions about bills of impeachment.

Since Trump has such a Twitter presence, the media can’t ignore him. Their only hope is to spin hard on everything he says, but the majority of the country knows something fishy happened.

More shots from Trump. This may last all night. He’s making his case.

“....An incredibly corrupt FBI & DOJ trying to steer the outcome of a Presidential Election. Brennan has gone off the deep end, he’s disgraced and discredited himself. His conduct has been outrageous.” Chris Farrell, Judicial Watch.

“Director Brennan’s recent statements purport to know as fact that the Trump campaign colluded with a foreign power. If Director Brennan’s statement is based on intelligence he received while leading the CIA, why didn’t he include it in the Intelligence Community Assessment......

Many of us need to address Britain’s attempt to subvert our United States election process and take down the President of the United States (re. Christopher Steele, British spy).

The U.K. has effectively done much more to harm the U.S.A. than Russia.

Trump has to get rid of all the other Obama/Clinton names on the list to take away their security clearances ASAP. Getting rid of just Brennan won’t do the trick, as much of the same kind of info will be picked up and leaked by the others such as Comey, etc. who still have security clearances, and fed to Brennan to be disseminated by him on TV to the public at large. All holes must be plugged by removing all of the evil cabal from having any further access to the nation’s most private security matters.

"All holes must be plugged"....you go on to make a great point about Brennan's security stripping, a point that most folks don't think about.

It’s happening, but on a schedule. Brennan’s clearance was taken 2 months ago. It seems Trump is slow rolling all of this purposefully.
