White House goes on offense, slams DNC, Clintons for ‘collusion’
FoxNews.com ^ | July 12, 2017 | Brooke Singman

Posted on 07/12/2017 9:13:16 PM PDT by ETL

The White House has been grappling all week with revelations of a meeting the president’s eldest son held last year with Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya, who was said to have dirt on Hillary Clinton as part of a Russian government effort to help the Trump campaign.

But Deputy White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders used Wednesday’s off-camera briefing to highlight DNC and Clinton ties to foreign governments including Russia and Ukraine.

“If we’re looking at Russia relationships with anybody, it would be directly with the Clintons,” she said, citing examples of a speech former President Bill Clinton gave in Russia for which he reportedly earned over $500,000 and reports of then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton selling what Sanders described as “a third of the world’s uranium” to Russia.

Right now the Liberals control the conversation. Trump & Co. are in pure reactive mode. They are playing defense only. You can’t win with defense only.

Exactly. They need to shove the FACTS down the demonRats throats until they choke on them. Reminds me of an ex who constantly excused me of cheating on her when in fact, as her personal diary would confirm, it was she who had been cheating on me.

From Investor's Business Daily, Jan 2012:

Obama To Betray Missile Defense Secrets To Moscow

Investor's Business Daily ^ | January 9, 2012 | IBD staff

Appeasement: From ObamaCare to recess appointments, honoring the Constitution has not been an administration hallmark. But when it comes to betraying secrets to mollify the Russians, it becomes a document the president hides behind.

It was bad enough that the 2012 defense authorization bill signed by President Obama set America on a downward spiral of military mediocrity.

He also issued a signing statement, something he once opposed, saying that language in the bill aimed at protecting top-secret technical data on the U.S. Standard Missile-3 - linchpin of our missile defense - might impinge on his constitutional foreign-policy authority.

Section 1227 of the defense law prohibits spending any funds that would be used to give Russian officials access to sensitive missile-defense technology as part of a cooperation agreement without first sending Congress a report identifying the specific secrets, how they'd be used and steps to protect the data from compromise.

The president is required to certify that any technology shared will not be passed on to third parties such as China, North Korea or Iran, that the Russians will not use transferred secrets to develop countermeasures and that the Russians are reciprocating in sharing missile-defense technology. ..."

"In his signing statement, Obama said he would treat these legal restrictions as 'non-binding' and that 'my administration will also interpret and implement section 1244 (sic) in a manner that does not interfere with the president's constitutional authority to conduct foreign affairs and avoids the undue disclosure of sensitive diplomatic communications.'

Betraying our secrets is easy for a president who betrayed allies Poland and the Czech Republic to placate Moscow.

Poland was to host ground-based interceptors such as those we've deployed in California and Alaska, with missile-tracking radar deployed in the Czech Republic.

Obama pulled the plug when Moscow objected. Never mind, he said, we have a better approach: a four-phase plan that calls for using three versions of the Navy's Standard SM-3 interceptor missile that forms the backbone of its Aegis missile-defense system.

The fourth phase consists of a missile still on the drawing board scheduled for deployment by 2020, a version of the SM-3 called the Block IIB. It would intercept hostile missiles in the "early intercept" phase before an enemy missile could release its warheads and decoys. The Russians want the SM-3's secrets, and Obama appears to be willing to turn them over.

The president wants to save the New Start Treaty, which the Russians have threatened to abandon if we try to fully implement President Reagan's dream of defeating a nuclear missile attack.

Russia has unilaterally asserted that any qualitative or quantitative improvement in U.S. missile defenses would be grounds for withdrawal from the treaty.

March 2012...

"Obama was talking with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev when neither of them realized that their conversation was being picked up by microphones. Here is what they said:

Obama: "On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it's important for him to give me space."

Medvedev: "Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you ..."

Obama: "This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility."

Medvedev: "I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir."

"This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility." That statement tells us much about the president's mindset.

The specific mention of missile defense is worrisome enough. Mr. Obama has retreated from the missile defense plan that was negotiated with European allies during the George W. Bush administration.

Apparently, he is signaling Moscow that he intends to retreat further. The clear implication from the president's comments is that he cannot tell the American people before the election what he plans to do after the election.

In addition, there is the phrase "on all these issues," implying more is at stake than just missile defense."

Thanks for the links.

Now, if we can only get our side to talk about these things instead of chasing the Don, Jr. squirrel.

LS, ETL and Liz have a ton of documented data showing how the Clintons and their thugs like Podesta were in bed with the evil Russians for a long time.

I now consider almost all media and DC foreign agents. Their globalist paymasters want the US to fail.

Early on, 0bama said, “The United States may fail, but my daughters will be just fine.” This was very early in his term. Think about Zakaria’s/CNN’s “Post American World”.

Your observations are right on target. Just add the rat and rino pols in DC to your list.

The just-inaugurated Kenyan, Obama plotted to throw the Republicans he detested under the bus. Obama had THE foreign policy to improve US-Russia relations. Secy Hillary met with Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov March 2009 in Geneva.

Sap-happy Hillary was all smiles, laughing her fool head off, as she presented a bright red button symbolizing the Obama admin’s desire to “reset” the relationship.

Later Hillary grabbed Putin by the gonads and insisted she and Obama were the ones that intended to "make Russia strong."

One can imagine the chauvinistic Russians getting that bit of news from a Kenyan and a sap-happy femiNazi.

The look of derision on Lavrov's face says it all.

Thanks for this intelligence.

There’s more than enough evidence to put Obama and the Clintons in jail from these revelations.

Thanks to Trump, the term “Fake News” has entered the American-English language.

But the other side of evil by our corrupt press corps is even more alarming — the willful neglect to publish news about activities that harm the Dems, Clinton and Obama.

In fact “Fake News” masks this “Hush Up” activity and the hush up is way more important than Fake News!

What’s a good name for this None-Reported News or Lack of Reporting?

It’s whistling past the graveyard. The corruption in our national press is so incredible that we need to shut them down and start over.

Perhaps social media and guys like Bill Mitchell are the way forward.

Good graphic, Dave. Obama is a Kenyan Mafia thug!

He needs to be embarassed and insulted so much that he can’t be seen in public.

Looks like Trump is going to be quite the globetrotter, which means in a very short time, he’ll have much better relationships with world leaders than Obama ever had.

Truth is, most genuine foreign leaders tolerated Obama and smiled with hiim in public but hated the man privately. The great meeting Trump held in Saudi Arabia seemed to show that.

Of course, thanks to our oil and natural gas, OPEC is in a bit of a pickle now. Time for America to rise again in so many ways.

One of our 0ldest and most conservative of our younger conservative family members, sent me this photo before Obama became President. He said that was all he needed to never vote for Obama.

If Trump says she’s been through enough and won’t request a DOJ investigation, then I’m afraid he’s too late using that argument now.
