Read post 88 it should cheer you up a bit
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff “took the bait” with the Democratic rebuttal to a Republican memo on alleged surveillance abuses by the Justice Department and FBI, according to a former investigator on the panel.
Kash Patel, an attorney who went on to take top national security roles in the Trump administration, told the Epoch Times in an interview last week about his strategy for writing the GOP memo, released in early 2018 over Democratic claims of politicization, that accused officials of misusing the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act to spy on ex-Trump foreign policy adviser Carter Page as part of the investigation into former President Donald Trump’s potential ties to Russia that started during the 2016 campaign.
“It was game on because we figured out under the rules of the House Intel Committee that there was a way to release classified information if it met certain requirements, and this material met those requirements while safeguarding sources and methods, which we were able to do,” Patel said in an episode of American Thought Leaders. “And so, while we were quietly running that process ... on our side of the investigation, we wanted to make sure that memo was bulletproof. So all we put in the memo were excerpts from people’s under oath interviews and information that we gleaned from the FBI and DOJ’s own documents.”
He added: They were the “only things we put in the Nunes memo because we didn’t want it to be something that we put inflamed rhetoric behind. That’s why it reads kind of bland, but that’s how we set it up.” Patel was referring to Rep. Devin Nunes, who was chairman of the panel at the time. The California Republican is now the ranking member with Democrats in control of the House.

You know what’s happening?
Al-Shabaab is being chased out of Somalia.
Look at the number of deaths from terrorism in Somalia.
Trump’s policy WORKED.
It APPEARS that this policy continues.
Interesting, eh?
Iran funds and trains al-Shabaab.
Why is Biden continuing Trump’s policy?
Could it be that he has no choice?
What exactly IS Trump’s policy?
We don’t know. He kept it secret.
After the deaths of four American soldiers in Niger, heads rolled. The men were sent out on a mission for which they weren’t prepared.
That never happened again.
The casualties STOPPED, because Trump held people responsible.
Clandestinely.
We lost a CIA paramilitary in Somalia a year ago due to an intelligence leak, I’m sure.
CIA officer killed in Somali raid on suspected al-Shabaab bomb-maker
Unnamed American died alongside four Somali officers when extremists detonated a car bomb
www.theguardian.com
After that attack, all information about the bomb maker ceased to be published.
The State Department is leaving the job up to the Treasury Department.
As Biden stumbles and tumbles and fumbles and mumbles, the campaign against al-Shabaab continues.
Westerners claim that Mozambique doesn’t have a counter-terrorism force.
Westerners don’t read African media outlets.

59 terrorists killed in northern Mozambique
The Defense and Security Forces of Mozambique (FDS) announced Wednesday that 59 terrorists were killed

Mozambique is quietly developing special-operations capabilities.
The fact that we’re announcing the deployment of Green Berets is significant for several reasons.
One, it shows that Trump’s efforts continue.
And two, it shows that Mozambique is much further along than anybody knew.
TONS of disinformation out there.
It keep all enemies off guard.
I approve.
