Former CIA Director Leon Panetta said that the Senate Intelligence Committee is going to have to look into the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) for funding the controversial Trump dossier during an interview on Thursday. CNN’s Wolf Blitzer asked Panetta how it was possible that neither “the chair of the DNC and the Clinton campaign” knew about payments for the dossier. “Well, it’s obviously something that the Intelligence Committee is going to have to look at,” Panetta said. “You know, knowing presidential campaigns, they’re big operations and somehow the left hand may not know what the right...

Hillary Clinton’s campaign didn’t just pay for the Kremlin-aided smear job on Donald Trump before the election; she continued to use the dirt after the election to frame her humiliating loss as a Russian conspiracy to steal the election. Bitter to the core, she and her campaign aides hatched a scheme, just 24 hours after conceding the race, to spoon-feed the dirty rumors to an eager liberal media and manufacture the narrative Russia secretly colluded with her neophyte foe to sabotage her coronation. But it was Hillary who was trying to kneecap Trump, even after he licked her, fair and...

In 2010, pro-Russia candidate Viktor Yanukovych was elected president of Ukraine. Paul Manafort provided extensive consulting services for his campaign. Politico has called it “a political love connection.” Vladimir Putin was pleased. His strategic endgame has been to create a united Eurasia that is nationalistic, Christian, steeped in local culture and history, and that would compete with Europe for regional hegemony. This was an early inkling of the Zeitgeist that would later lead to Brexit and the election of Donald Trump. Manafort was one of its architects. Ukraine’s decision to align with Putin did not sit well with globalists, though....

Jim Acosta voids his bladder at yet another White House Press Briefing, hilarity ensues. – The Fake News Network’s petulant and preening Jim Acosta provided yet another prime example of why he and CNN should be banned from future White House press briefings yesterday. As Senior Policy Adviser Stephen Miller was discussing the details of the Raise Act, a piece of legislation that would modify the terms of legal immigration into the U.S., Acosta, without being called upon, constantly interrupted the speaker and engaged him in a debate in which he implied that the poem on the Statue of Liberty...

As a former White House chief of staff, the best advice I could have given Gen. John F. Kelly has been overtaken by events: Don’t take the job. Kelly, who has rendered extraordinary service and sacrifice to the nation, just signed up for what may truly be an impossible mission: bringing discipline, order and strategic focus to the chaos that is the Trump White House. To have any chance of succeeding, he will have to accomplish three extraordinary tasks, all at odds with President Trump’s instincts....

A couple of major news events occurred recently with almost no fanfare.  There were no "Breaking News" graphics for wall-to-wall coverage on the cable news channels, no "official" or "anonymous" sources leaked to the New York Times or Washington Post any of the intimate details. It was like they never happened.

One of Donald Trump’s failings as president has been a refusal to face up to Russia’s role in hacking the 2016 election, something American intelligence agencies have testified under oath they know took place. So it is important that when he held his first presidential face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin on Friday, Mr. Trump began by raising the interference issue and then reportedly pressed him more than once on Russian involvement during the course of their two-hour-and-15-minute conversation.Not to do so would have been derelict and would have provided further reason to wonder what sway the Russians may have over...

The former chairman of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign shot back at President Trump in a series of tweet Friday, hours after Trump said "everyone" at the G-20 summit was talking about him. Over seven tweets, John Podesta said he was on a road trip with his wife when he pulled over to see "that our whack job POTUS" was tweeting about him. Everyone here is talking about why John Podesta refused to give the DNC server to the FBI and the CIA. Disgraceful!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 7, 2017 "Everyone here is talking about why John Podesta refused to...

Pres. Trump tweets this from the G20: Everyone here is talking about why John Podesta refused to give the DNC server to the FBI and the CIA. Disgraceful!

Lawmakers failed to seize on an alarming development in the Russia collusion story last week, one that should spark serious and immediate congressional inquiry. But it didn’t involve President Trump or his administration. During a heated Fox Business interview with Maria Bartiromo, Hillary Clinton’s former campaign chief John Podesta made a series of misleading statements when questioned about his involvement in a company that received $35 million from the Russian government while Hillary served as secretary of state On Jan. 18, 2011, a small green-energy company named Joule Unlimited announced Podesta’s appointment to its board. Months later, Rusnano, a Kremlin-backed...

DNC Broke Law When It Denied The FBI Access To The DNC Server – John Podesta Meets With House Intelligence Panel Behind Closed Doors. The Liberals Literally Get Away With Murder. The House Intelligence Committee met behind closed doors Tuesday with John Podesta, Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign chairman, amid complaints by President Donald Trump that the Obama administration didn’t do enough to counter Russian interference in the U.S. election. I am standing beside President Trump, because the DNC broke the law by denying the FBI access to the server during an investigation. No one will actually come out and state...

John Podesta, who headed up Hillary Clinton's campaign for president, testified before the House Intelligence Committee on the Obama administration's lack of action in dealing with Russian cyberattacks on the election. Podesta gave his testimony behind closed doors.

(CNN)The House intelligence committee next week plans to interview John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign chairman whose hacked email account became central to Russian meddling in the US election last year, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter. Podesta will be one of the committee's first major witnesses to meet with the panel behind closed doors as it tries to determine the extent of the Russian involvement in last year's campaign and whether any of President Donald Trump's associates coordinated with the Russians. The committee sent out requests to interview six witnesses this week, sources said, with Podesta expected...

The House Intelligence Committee next week plans to interview John Podesta as part of its investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 election and possible collusion with the Trump campaign, according to a new report. CNN reported Thursday night that the meeting with Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman last year, will occur in private.

If I told you that Democratic Party lobbyist Tony Podesta, whose brother John Podesta chairs Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, is a registered foreign agent on the Saudi government’s payroll, you’d probably think I was a Trump-thumping, conspiratorial nutcase. But it’s true. The lobby firm created by both Tony and John Podesta in 1988 receives $140,000 a month from the Saudi government, a government that beheads nonviolent dissidents, uses torture to extract forced confessions, doesn’t allow women to drive, and bombs schools, hospitals and residential neighborhoods in neighboring Yemen. The Podesta Group’s March 2016 filing, required under the Foreign Agents Registration...

Democrat super-lobbyist Tony Podesta was paid $170,000 over a six-month period last year to represent Sberbank, Russia’s largest bank, seeking to end one of the Obama administration’s economic sanctions against that country, The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group has learned. Podesta, founder and chairman of the Podesta Group, is listed as a key lobbyist on behalf of Sberbank, according to Senate lobbying disclosure forms. His firm received more than $24 million in fees in 2016, much of it coming from foreign governments, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.

First of all, I pray you spread and make this post viral for George Webb and his family. George has investigated the disappearance of Eric Braverman, Ex-CEO of the Clinton Foundation, and he now believes that Braverman has been taken to Israel for his safety. George has also gotten involved in the murder investigation of Seth Rich. He now believe Seth was assassinated by Hillary Clinton’s goon squad. George found that there are connections to Hillary’s goon squad and the gang who came across the border during the Obama reign called the MS-13. They have terrorized our Country for some...

Seth Rich,...a possible key to whether the DNC was Hacked by Russia or if in Fact Rich sent the emails by contact to Wikileaks,Evidence for the Special Counsel to the FBI.

The police chief who oversaw Seth Rich’s unsolved murder case has socialized and been honored alongside key Hillary Clinton advisers and even Rich’s own boss at the Democratic National Committee. Rich is widely reported to be the source of Wikileaks’ damning 2016 email release that showed the DNC colluding to hand the nomination to Clinton at the expense of Bernie Sanders. He was gunned down in D.C. 12 days before Wikileaks’ release. Former Metropolitan Police Department chief Cathy Lanier resigned from her post the month after Rich’s murder to accept a position running security for the National Football League. She...

Seth Rich died after he was shot multiple times on the 2100 block of Flagler Place NW which is three blocks east of Howard University Hospital and six minutes away from MedStar Washington Hospital Center. The Washington D.C. police report says Seth Rich survived the initial shootings and died later at the hospital. There have been no reports on which hospital he was taken to, but common sense indicates it would have had to been Medstar Washington Hospital Center. Howard University Hospital is closer and has an emergency room, but not for trauma surgery so Seth Rich had to have...
