This @#$&* is going down!
Very strange title for an article. You didn’t change it by any chance.
Linky dinky no worky.
I remember FReeper LS saying to pay attention when the lefties start turning on Mueller.
Penn has been on Tucker’s show several times with similar comments. Evidently he wants to work again in the future.
Penn has done it a couple of times. Mueller is corrupt.
Penn and Schoen are committed Democrats, but honest ones.
The deep state is reviewing and commenting right now. They know the contents and are now in deep panic.
You can’t change the titles when posting articles. Sheesh. I wish people would learn the F rules. FR went through this crap already with the Compost and LA Slimes back in the 90s.
Very good summary of the facts.
Does seem intended as a warning to the Left.
Ow, that’s gonna’ leave a mark.
I’ve long said that this all ends up at Obama’s feet as it will once the rat-fink’s start squealing on Kenyan Barry to save their own lousy hides.
It’s gonna’ be great to watch.
Yes. But the problem is that wire service journalism has all this information available to it, just as much as you and I - and youd never know it, because they simply stonewall. They do so in concert because they can - because they are in cahoots, with each other and with the Democrat Party.That cabal has to be delegitimated before the truth can even begin to sink in to the non-conservative public.
“Stopping Mueller isnt about one president or one party. Its about all presidents and all parties. Its about cleaning out and reforming the deep state so that our intelligence operations are never used against opposing campaigns without the firmest of evidence. Its about letting people work for campaigns and administrations without needing legal defense funds. Its about relying on our elections to decide our differences.”
YUGE!
Perhaps the murkiest event in the timeline is Rod Rosensteins appointment of a special counsel after he personally recommended Comeys firing in blistering terms. With Attorney General Jeff Sessions shoved out of the way, Rosenstein and Mueller then ignored their own conflicts and took charge anyway. Rosenstein is a fact witness, and Mueller is a friend of Comey, disqualifying them both.Unfortunately...the Mueller investigation comes with no off switch: You cant fire Mueller. He needs to be defeated...
Finding the off switch will not be easy. Step one here is for the Justice Department inspector general report to knock Comey out of the witness box. Next, the full origins of the investigation and its lack of any real intelligence needs to come out in the open. The attorney general, himself the target of a secret investigation, needs to take back his Justice Department. Sessions needs to act quickly, along with U.S. Attorney John Huber, appointed to conduct an internal review of the FBI, on the Comey and McCabe matters following the inspector general report, and then announce an expanded probe into other abuses of power.
Stopping Mueller isnt about one president or one party. Its about all presidents and all parties. Its about cleaning out and reforming the deep state so that our intelligence operations are never used against opposing campaigns without the firmest of evidence. Its about letting people work for campaigns and administrations without needing legal defense funds. Its about relying on our elections to decide our differences.
Sad to say, but I don't think Sessions is up for the job that needs to be done. I just don't think he's strong enough. He's just another a milquetoast Republican creature of the Senate.
The latter are, and are likely to remain, unindicted co-conspirators in all of this. None of this would even be possible if it weren't for an open declaration of war on the part of the media and the resulting "damn the truth, get Trump" attitude. We have negotiations in Korea, a diplomatic scuffle over the Iran deal, a burgeoning economy, a tax reform, and yet we were treated today with a "major" scandal involving the misspelling of the First Lady's name. The institution has failed, and its death throes aren't pretty.
It seems like everyone in DC knows what’s in the Inspector’s report and who will be hanging by their thumbs. There is a rush to either discredit or shift your posture. I think we are in for some interesting times very soon.
cont
If you read her email, along with Senator Grassleys letter to Rice, it is obvious that it is a CYA memo. But the question is, whose A is being Cd?
Most attention, so far, has focused on the first two paragraphs of the email, which describe a meeting that occurred around two weeks earlier.
The participants included
<><>Barack Obama,
<><>Joe Biden,
<><>James Comey,
<><> Sally Yateswho turns up like a bad penny whenever skulduggery is afoot
<><>and Rice:
Rice made sure to underscore that Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities by the book. Rice writes Obama stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book.
This is pure boilerplate.
It represents, obviously, the company line. But Rice did not write her email to cover Barack Obamas rear end. If she or
anyone else had wanted to document the claim that Obama said to proceed by the book, the appropriate course would have been an official memo that copied others who were present and would have gone into the file. (My guess is that such a memo was written, but we havent seen it.)
The important part of the email is not the paragraph that purports to exonerate Obama, but the paragraphs that follow: From a national security perspective, however, President Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia.
The next paragraph of the email remains classified and has been redacted. The email concludes:
The President asked Comey to inform him if anything changes in the next few weeks that should affect how we share classified information with the incoming team. Comey said he would.
CONCLUSION Why did Susan Rice send herself an email purporting to document this part of the meeting? Because she was Cing her own A. Rice was nervous about the fact that, at the presidents direction, she had failed to share information fully as it relates to Russia with President Trumps incoming national security team.
Her actions violated longstanding American tradition. Outgoing administrations have always cooperated in the transition to a new administration, whether of the same or the opposing party, especially on matters relating to national security.
Susan Rice is far from the brightest bulb on the tree, but she was well aware that by concealing facts ostensibly relating to national security from her counterpart in the new administrationGeneral Michael Flynnshe was, at a minimum, violating longstanding civic norms.
If she actually lied to Flynn, she could have been accused of much worse. So Rice wanted to be able to retrieve her email, if she found herself in a sticky situation, and tell the world that she hid relevant facts about Russia from the
new administration on Barack Obamas orders.
What were the secrets that Obama wanted to keep from the new administration? We can easily surmise that the fact that the Steele memo was paid for by the Democratic Party; that the FBI had to some degree collaborated with Steele; that the Clinton campaign had fed some of the fake news in the dossier to Steele; and that Comeys FBI had used Steeles fabrications as the basis for FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign were among the facts that Obama and his minions didnt want Michael Flynn and Donald Trump to know. Susan Rice, we can infer, was told to keep these secrets, and if anyone ever asked why she had failed to disclose them to Michael Flynn and others on Trumps team, or even lied to those people, she would have the defense that President Obama ordered her to do it.
There may be more to it than this. The redacted paragraph likely contains more information about what it was that Rice wasnt supposed to tell the Trump team. One of these days, we will learn what was blacked out.
The fact that Michael Flynn was Susan Rices counterpart in the incoming administration may also be significant. We know that the FBI agents who interviewed General Flynneven Peter Strzok!reported that they didnt think he had lied about anything.
And yet, Obamas DOJ and Bob Muellers investigationbasically a continuation of Obamas corrupt Department of Justice under another, less accountable namepersecuted Flynn to the point where he finally pled guilty to a single count of lying to the FBI in order, as he says, to end the madness and the financial drain.
Why were the Democrats so determined to discredit General Flynn? Perhaps because they wanted to pre-empt any outrage that may otherwise have followed on revelations that the Obama administrations National Security Advisor hid important facts from her successor during the transition, and may have lied to him about those facts, in violation of all American tradition.
