As a US citizen, Congress can (and will!) subpoena Stefan Halper soon as he is “officially outed.”

Watch for direct threats from Burr, Warner, Schiff, Lynch, etc. to the msm to not reveal his name...yes, they’ve already been doing it, but will escalate to defcon 1. This is for all the marbles. The Golden Key.

They have maybe 10 days before his name hits the five o’clock news. Then it’s over.

He’ll rat out Brennan.

Last night I had the misfortune to click on CNN just as an interview with Clapper was starting. He was asked about the investigation of the Trump campaign and basically said “look, as an agency, it was our job to investigate what the Russians were doing and that is what we doing…. This was a good thing.” https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2018/05/18/clapper_a_good_thing_if_fbi_had_someone_observing_russian_interactions_with_trump_campaign.html I thought well, there you go… we are going to inundated with that crap for quite a while because now they (deep state) have hit the point where they dodged and weaved for so long that they are out of moves and this is really all they’ve got left. On the other hand, I was left dumbfounded that Clapper hadn’t figured out that “when you are in a hole, stop digging.” By pushing the narrative that “they were just doing their job and this was a good thing”, what can he possibly hope to accomplish? There is now so much evidence that totally disputes this not the least of which is the timeline.

>>The FBI mole was planted in the Trump campaign before he won the Republican nomination. Were the other Republican candidates deserving of an FBI mole in their campaigns or was Trump the only one not approved by the NWO ruling elite? Reasonable to conclude the rest were/are owned by the NWO pukes as are most in DC.

You make a great point there. A leader who speaks truth to the people must be stopped if the NWO is ever going to succeed in bringing the USA into the world of socialist states.

This shows that whole “Russian collusion” story was a lie, from the beginning.

First, Hillary’s smear-meisters Sid Blumenthal and Cody Shearer crafted a smear tailored to influence the demographic they were targeting in the election - suburban women.

Then, they sent spies out to frame innocent people, like bad cops planting evidence.

Then they used those framed as an excuse for wholesale spying on everyday of the Trump campaign, with bunches of Democratic Party operatives listening in and getting reports.

“Were the other Republican candidates deserving of an FBI mole in their campaigns?”

Now we know that the Obama Administration abused their spying powers for illegal political purposes - but we don’t yet know the full extent of their misconduct.

Were all the main presidential candidates spied upon? Senators and Congressmen? Supreme Court Justices and other judges in key cases? CEOs? Big donors? Previous election cycles?

How much blackmail was practiced with the fruits of illegal domestic spying?

BOL! Nice photo of Halper in his new disguise to avoid jail or being shot by the Saudis!

Which begs the question: Why is the DOJ/FBI going to such lengths to protect the identity of Halper?

I say it’s because he has told them that if he is outed, he will tell everyone everything he knows.

And they’ll all go to jail together.

That and probably how this Deep State Thug has been around presidents doing his thing since Nixon.

Halper is a Republican (GOPe). He worked for the GHWB administration, and was connected to the CIA (GHWB link)...I wonder if he go involved to help Jeb??

I wouldn't be surprised to find Bush fingerprints all over this.

“Did Halper pay taxes on the $282k he received?”

That’s a good question to ask him if he ever shows up alive after this.

Analysis
UPI NewsTrack - July 11, 1983
Author/Byline: IRA R. ALLEN

The swirling mystery of the 1980 briefing books in some ways parallels the Watergate scandal of a decade ago, and President Reagan is trying to make sure that whatever the result, no one can accuse him of managing a cover-up.

Spokesman Larry Speakes, a veteran of President Nixon's darkest hours in the White House, maintains Reagan has not asked directly for information from his staff precisely to avoid the appearance of a cover-up.

‘You can recall what happened to one other president who didn't keep hands off an investigation,’ he told reporters last week. ‘Nobody can fault us for giving a full and free rein to the Justice Department and saying, ‘Pursue it with vigor.’’

The main parallel between Watergate and the current controversy is that both had their genesis in an effort by campaign aides to figure out what the opposition had.

And the specter of the Central Intelligence Agency loomed prominently in both cases.

Nixon was forced to resign after admitting that he had, only several days after the incident, told the CIA of the June, 1972, break-in at Democratic headquarters, which his spokesman characterized as a ‘third-rate burglary.’ The mastermind of the burglary was a former CIA operative, E. Howard Hunt.

While no fingers are pointing anywhere yet in the current controversy, there have been accusations that national security papers were passed to the Reagan campaign, whose manager was William Casey, now director of the CIA.

One former Reagan aide who denied a news report he was involved in a campaign intelligence ring, Stefan Halper, previously worked in the presidential campaign of Vice President George Bush, who was CIA director and Republican chairman when Nixon resigned.

Now, a quick and clean hanging might be a good option for him.

I’m quite sure Professor Halper is in a jurisdiction where his testimony before Congress or, more importantly, a grand jury, cannot be compelled.

And I’m also quite sure that he would not live 24 hours if he returned to the US in response to a subpoena.

In fact, his security team(s) are probably working overtime this very day. Here’s a guy who goes back to NIXON, at least, who has had influence in every administration since then, and you’re telling me nobody knows his name?

That is one VERY important critter. Who is now in grave (is there any other kind?) danger.

This is what I've been blasting on social media since this news broke:

If Trump was colluding with the Russians, and the Obama Administration was supposedly looking for Russian campaign moles with their wiretaps, exactly why did they tap Trump's phones? If they believed that Trump was colluding the with Russians, then the Russians would have put the moles in Hillary's campaign, not Trump's! A Russian operative in the Trump camp would have done no good. They'd already know everything about the Trump side, if they were colluding. So, why didn't the Obama DOJ tap Hillary's phones, or even consider it? We all know why. The DOJ is clearly lying. The taps were politically motivated, to help the DNC and Hillary, as we have all known, all along. This latest lame lie is just another example of why voters are leaving the Democrat party in droves. They see through the corruption and nonsense, and have had enough. They cheated Bernie in the Primary, and they tried to cheat Trump as well, using every illegal means available. They care nothing about the voters, or the nation. They are out for control, period, by hook or by crook.

“He’ll rat out Brennan.”

And it’s many more than Brennan.

And everyone who participated committed serious felonies. Everyone who had an office, and knew, committed a felony by not exposing it.

So far, it looks like only Rogers comes away clean in the entire Obama security apparatus. Because he personally told POTUS.

Excellent questions.

Will any of us live long enough to get the answers?
