Within hours of her 2016 presidential campaign loss, a devastated Hillary Clinton attributed her defeat not to the American voters who rejected her, but to Russia, echoing a campaign theme she had been developing for months. “Hillary declined to take responsibility for her own loss” and “kept pointing her finger” at Russia, according to Shattered, a 2017 book about her campaign—“Her team coalesced around the idea that Russian hacking was the major unreported story of the campaign.”
The corporate media were also devastated, as they had spent the entire campaign mocking the idea that Trump and his anti-establishment positions on foreign policy, trade, and wokeness could appeal to voters. To the extent possible, they would help promote Clinton’s blame game.
In early January 2017, the Clinton campaign’s “Steele dossier”—a secretly funded collection of made-up stories and gossip alleging that Russia had dirt on Trump and that Trump was colluding with Russia against the United States—was published. Washington would be consumed by Russia collusion hoax for the next two-and-a-half years. The investigations it spurred would bankrupt Trump associates, destroy lives, and hamstring Trump’s ability to govern. It led to draconian censorship campaigns against conservatives. It hurt Republicans in the 2018 midterm elections and the 2020 general election. But no evidence was found that a single American, much less Trump himself, conspired with Russia.
Fast forward to today. Six months into Trump’s second term, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard have declassified and released long-suppressed documents detailing how President Obama and his spy chiefs laundered the Steele dossier and other falsehoods in attempting to destroy Trump’s first presidency. The response from Democrats, the media, and many establishment Republicans has been to say that these suppressed documents contain nothing new or significant. Not true.

In typical fashion, this is long and detailed, but with the read. MH is the best
Russia!, Russia!, Russia! was actually Clinton!, Clinton!, Clinton!
“More than 160 Republicans potentially investigated in FBI’s Arctic Frost probe, House panel says”
“The GOP-led House Judiciary Committee disclosed Tuesday that more than 160 Republicans – including many closely connected to President Donald Trump – were targeted for possible investigation during the Biden Justice Department’s Arctic Frost investigation.
The committee tweeted that recently reviewed documents show the Arctic Frost investigation appears more wide-ranging than initially believed in Biden’s DOJ’s effort to “take down President Trump and his supporters.”
The nearly 200 pages of documents provide new insights into the sweeping investigation aimed at Trump World, which was launched by the FBI under then-Director Chris Wray and later picked up by former DOJ special counsel Jack Smith under then-Attorney General Merrick Garland.”

🚨 MORE BREAKING NEWS:
New documents prove BENNIE THOMPSON and LIZ CHENEY were working hand-in-hand with JACK SMITH.
The partisan J6 Committee provided transcripts, documents, and text messages, all to take down President Trump and his associates.
Thanks for the update, CFW!

Alright, kids. Here it is. Released today by the FBI, nearly 200 pages of formerly classified FBI documents, posted today on the House Judiciary Committee website and proves that the “state law cases” with the fake criminal charges against Pres Trump, Trump lawyers, Trump electors...and supporters were NOT state initiated AT ALL. These were ALL proxies for the feds...the BIDEN feds....
The FBI with the blessing of the Biden DOJ and no doubt the Biden White House initiated and conducted the entire investigation of hundreds and hundreds of RNC, Trump campaign employees, consultants, lawyers, supporters....all for the purpose of DESTROYING the MAGA movement ...
by prosecuting / persecuting not only the President but anyone in his orbit.
Look through the documents yourself...see the evidence... those puppet Democrat AGs in Arizona (@krismayesNV @AaronDFordNV Wisconsin @JoshKaulWI and Michigan @dananessel
— not to mention your favorite disgraced slut @faniforDA
Willis from GA....they were just puppets of the Biden / national Democrats who pulled the strings for the indictments on FAKE charges against Trump and Trump electors, lawyers, supporters.
I do NOT want to hear ONE MORE WORD from these creeps and their sycophants in the leftwing media about Donald Trump being authoritarian.
When in American history have we seen this massive all-of-government investigation of normal citizens who committed NO crime, but simply were supporting or were part of the opposition political party? Never. NEVER.
It is time to realize those so-called state criminal proceedings were a mere proxy for the Biden White House/ DNC / DOJ / FBI who concocted a plan to make sure Donald Trump never again could run for president and to cripple the entire MAGA movement.
There are hundreds and hundreds of victims of this massive conspiracy — and the worst of it was inflicted on Pres Trump, the defendants in the Trump electors FAKE criminal prosecutions, and the J6 prisoners.
We can’t let these creeps get away with this any longer. We need more pardons and MORE investigations and PROSECUTIONS of those who deprived hundreds of Americans of their constitutional and civil rights.
She is. I have a lot of respect for her investigative skills.
Ping.
 Just check out the who's who from Harvard LAW ... in elected positions of government on the Republican side ... One such governor got allll his phone and communications protected by his state legislature ... something that smells of rotten fish.
