Devin Nunes Drops Another Bomb, and It’s a Big One
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 04/23/2018 4:55:28 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

So, here’s how our fake national news media justifies what it does:

- Devin Nunes, Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday that the Obama Administration’s fake “counterintelligence” investigation into the Trump campaign was started in early 2016 “with no official intelligence” as its basis.

- Other than Fox and a handful of conservative news outlets, no media outlet has reported this incredible, bombshell news, which means that the investigation was illegal from the outset.

- The fake news media outlets refusing to cover this story claim that it’s all Nunes’ fault, because he has destroyed his own credibility with the fake news media.

- Why is that the case? Because Nunes has spent the last 13 months uncovering the truth about the Trump/Russia Collusion fantasy play that has been mounted by the Democrat party in direct coordination with those same fake news media players.

- Because of that, the fake news media identified Nunes as a threat, and has mounted an intense character assassination campaign against him.

See how that works? The media identifies a threat to their narrative, colludes with Democrats like bug-eyed Adam Schiff, the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, to demonize that threat, claims that threat has lost his credibility as a result of the demonization campaign, and then proceeds to ignore everything he says on the grounds of the lost credibility. A textbook display of a Saul Alinsky character assassination campaign.

In all seriousness, the revelation by Nunes is incredible in its potential ramifications, and it can’t just be wished away no matter how hard the fake media tries. The FBI and intelligence community currently claim that the origin for its counterintelligence operation against the Trump Campaign was a conversation that a pathetic minor hander-on named George Papadopolous had with an Australian diplomat. If that is true – which is highly suspect – then that bit of intelligence should have been communicated through the so-called “Five Eyes” agreement between the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the UK, a deal that ensures these five allies do not spy on one another’s citizens without everyone knowing about it.

Nunes, as Chairman of the House Intel Committee, is privy to such Five Eyes communications, so is obviously in a position to know. Obama CIA Director John Brennan testified to congress last May that he directly communicated the intelligence he had accumulated as of October 2016 to then-FBI Director James Comey, and also briefed key members of congress at the same time.

Unfortunately for Brennan, last week the FBI, after months of stonewalling, released the original electronic communications documents that led to the creation of its counterintelligence investigation, and those documents, according to Nunes, reveal that that intelligence that Brennan passed to Comey did not come through official channels. Nunes told Bartiromo the following:

Nunes doesn’t know whether the former secretary of state and then-Democratic challenger to Trump in the election, Hillary Clinton, was pulling the strings of the investigation launched against her political opponent. However, he said it is known that two long-time Clinton associates – including Sidney Blumenthal – were “actively” giving information to the State Department, which “was somehow making its way to the FBI.”

So, what all this means is that it is very likely that the CIA, under Brennan’s leadership, had been conducting illegal surveillance on the Trump Campaign long before the FBI had ever obtained a FISA warrant authorizing such activity against U.S. citizens, and that associates of the Pantsuit Princess were feeding the State Department information from the fake Trump Dossier that the DNC and Clinton Campaign had spent millions of dollars having compiled. That information was then being fed by the State Department to Brennan, and Brennan was then passing it through to Comey. Breathtaking.

This explains why Nunes and his committee are still working on a report on its findings related to the State Department’s involvement in the illegal spying on the Trump Campaign. We also should remember here that we have evidence, in the form of texts between disgraced deep state FBI Agent Peter Strzok and his mistress, DOJ lawyer Lisa Page, that President Obama himself was aware of all of this as early as September 2016. In that month, Strzok texted Page that Obama had requested a briefing “on everything we are doing.”

This is the single biggest scandal in American history, and our fake news media is so blinded by its collective hatred for Donald Trump and its overwhelming general political bias that it is not just missing the story, it is intentionally ignoring it in the hopes that pretending that the facts don’t exist will somehow make them go away.

But facts are stubborn things, as Ronald Reagan famously said, and you can’t just wish them away.

Just another day in the truth is coming slowly but surely America.

That is all.

Fake News: Lack of evidence is proof of crime.

The Federal Government spy agencies interfered in the U.S. elections. One might think this a crime.

The fake news media itself is an integral part of the story so it is not really blinded, it is a cover-up.

At least the baseless, politically motivated investigation of Trump stopped when he got a good AG in to replace Lynch.

Oh wait... Under Sessions the baseless, politically motivated investigation picked up steam and gained limitless scope and funding.

Nevermind.

I think the biggest crime in the history of this nation.

I see this as more of an intrinsic issue with Special Prosecutors. They have a way of snowballing on their own, because there is no practical oversight of them and they stumble on like a headless corpse. They pick up political baggage and steam, and nobody wants to get in their way for political and public relations reasons. I think the concept of “Special Prosecutors” should be radically altered and reined in before another one is ever started and used.

This isn’t to say Sessions made a huge blunder by recusing himself, everyone agrees on that. A leftist would have never made that naive mistake, and that says as much about our side as it does about theirs.

Where is Nunes’ bill to shut down the circus that is Mueller?

So what happens now? Nothing.
I am convinced the only way these bastards are going to get any real heat is a prime time Presidential address where the POTUS lays it all out. This won’t happen of course for a lot of reasons but MSM is killing the truth at every turn.

Here is the problem. The Democrat elites, Media, and swampy republicans, know they have been caught up to their eyeballs in a coup attempt. They are using the Alynski tactic of accusing the accuser to confuse.

Like a shark that can't stop swimming or it drowns, they must keep up the claims or they go to jail.

So under Obama and the Deep State, the US has been transformed into a politicized secret police, surveillance state. A partisan judiciary has also been transformed into a tool of oppression to be used by the ruling inner party This is all so third world and what the left wants for the future of the country.

“...CIA...conducting illegal surveillance on the Trump Campaign long before the FBI had ever obtained a FISA warrant...”

I came to this same conclusion long ago ... Comey and Clapper had to criminally manufacture their reason to obtain a FISA warrant because they had been spying on the Trump campaign (and almost certainly others) in a criminal fashion for a long time.

This whole FISA mess was a CYA attempt after the fact to try to make the criminal spying done by the intel agencies to appear legal. I strongly suspect that at least some of the FISA judges were in on this.

I hope this all comes out and soon!!!

I think a lot of people are extremely dissatisfied and impatient with Sessions, and think nothing at all is going to come of this.

With the history on the conservative side of this, one can hardly blame people for feeling that way.

Feels like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football.

In other words, Obama just simply started using the government resources to spy on the Trump campaign.

By law, the CIA is proscribed from domestic operations.

Talk about an out-of-control administration! Obama and his minions/puppet masters must swing for this, along with the DNC and the Clinton Crime Family!
