UPDATE: President Obama’s Own Defense Deputy Admits Obama White House Spied on Candidate/President..
Conservative Treehouse ^ | 03/28/2017 | Sundance

This is stunningly interesting and hopefully will be picked up by MSM and congressional investigators.

Sometimes when a person is deep inside an echo-chamber of like-minded ideologues, they might not realize what they’re saying is rather revealing to those on the outside. That’s the set up for former Obama administration official Evelyn Farkas (Deputy Asst. Secretary of Defense) appearing on MSNBC and admitting first hand knowledge the Obama administration spied on candidate and president-elect Donald Trump’s transition team to gather “intelligence” for political use.

It would appear Ms. Farkas was so caught up in the discussion, she didn’t quite realize the significant admissions she was making about the Obama administration spying on Donald Trump’s team and generating classified intelligence for Ms. Farkas (and others) to spread to Capitol Hill politicians. MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski recognized the ‘oh-snap’ admission and tried to play it off,… but by then it was too late.

Why can it not be a slip of the tongue?

5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:
8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

They will not be arresting Obama no matter if they had a video of him offing someone. I think we need to realize that there will be no jailing of anyone. I don’t think even DJT has the @#$%% to do it. Of course we all hope for justice, but with the courts being filled with commie judges, even if they were arrested, there will be no justice through the InJustice system. I say this having lived through year after year of Ken Starr & the Clintons.

Here’s another appearance by Farkas on a different MSNBC show from March 1 pushing the Russia-Trump narrative: The 11th Hour with Brian Williams 3/1/17: Malcolm Nance: Trump resistance on Russia ‘is suspicious’: “MSNBC’s Brian Williams discusses the breaking news on Russia, the Trump White House, and Atty. General Sessions with Andrea Mitchell, Evelyn Farkas, and Malcolm Nance.”

well that was interesting!

[Ultimately, the teams decided it was necessary to replace the software on every computer at the DNC. Until the network was clean, secrecy was vital. On the afternoon of Friday, June 10, all DNC employees were instructed to leave their laptops in the office. ]

They Awan brothers ? Perhaps?

Very damning!

However, it effectively means nothing until and unless Congress and/or the Attorney General actually do something about it. Like bring these traitors up on chargers and fight like heck to convict them.

CrowdStrike is the company that investigated the hacking of the DNC computers.

Everybody should check out The Atlantic Council of which this woman is a member. She's a "Senior Director" or some such. Everybody in the organization is a "Director" in some capacity.

I stumbled across The Atlantic Council a few months ago when I was looking up a guy I was in the Army with 20 years ago.

He was a total toxic leader d-bag a-hole, so of course he retired as a 1 Star General.

He's a "Non Resident Senior Fellow" in this Atlantic Council organization. Board members include: Wesley Clark, Condi Rice, Henry Kissinger, and a whole host of NeoCons, former politicians, and assorted crooks.

How does an organization this large with so many prominent people fund itself?

Conservative Treehouse says its funded by the State Dept and NATO, ie, the US taxpayer.

This huge swamp organization is just ONE OF MANY.

This is The Swamp.

And we've all been funding it for decades. I'll be very interested in seeing the official Conservative reaction when Trump starts defunding and disbanding all these groups.

I watched the video several times and never heard her say the quote ‘I Helped Spy On Trump For Obama’

Where is it?

And if she didn’t say that, why is it in quotes?

” Somebody that dumb was near the top of the defense dept? The republicans better start locking these people up or we will do it for them. I think the Russians have been in charge for 8 years , it’s the only way you’d put somebody that dumb at dod .”

Fire all those who can be fired. Put the rest (2,000 if need be) in charge of lawn maintenance.

Just imagine...

In 2008, the Obama administration is under construction, and word gets out that President Bush had surveillance on him. Could you imagine the uproar if this shoe were on the other foot?

If you go to Twitter and search for Evelyn Farkus you’ll see back in early March she was on with Joe and Mika saying things very similar to what she said today...lots of folks tweeting about it then too. Not sure how we missed it??

She’s pretty cavalier about it all...

As I heard it, she basically says it with this quote:

"That if the Trump folks found out how we knew what we knew about the Trump staff dealing with Russians, they would try and compromise those sources and methods, meaning, we would no longer have access to that intelligence. I became very worried because not enough was coming out in the open and I knew that there was more. We have very good intelligence on Russia. Then I had talked to some of my former colleagues and I knew they were also trying to help get information to the Hill. That’s why you have the leaking. People are worried."

Thanks; I see the ticker tape mentions Ben Carson is expected to be confirmed later that day, and Carson was confirmed on March 2.

Yes, we all hope for justice. I hope Jeff Sessions follows his oath and pursues these breakers of the law. We’re either a nation of laws or we are not. If something as blatant as this and the Clinton crimes go unpunished, then it’s open season for the beltway in the future. You can do whatever you want, whenever you want, especially if you’re a democrat. A great system that will not survive long term. We owe it to future generations to put a stop to this. If anyone will, it’s Trump, Sessions and the new FBI director after Comey leaves.
