[Proud White Trump Supporter]

President Obama’s former Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, came clean on CNN and stated that former President Obama was behind spying on President Trump!

Snip~~~

(If it weren’t for President Obama we might not have done the intelligence community assessment that we did that set up a whole sequence of events which are still unfolding today including Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation. President Obama is responsible for that. It was he who tasked us to do that intelligence community assessment in the first place.)

Clapper has let the cat out of the bag. He's also now a dead man walking. I wonder what Brennan is thinking now?

Looking more & more like the Trump Campaign for President was illegally spied upon (surveilled)
for the political gain of Crooked Hillary Clinton, Obama, and the DNC.

The loser goony-faced Halfrican and the impressive president-elect meet.
The dirt Hillary was supposed to sweep under the rug is now in the hands of the man the Halfrican tried to destroy.

"After all we did for her, that lousy Hillary lost. "How’m I gonna get out of the mess I’m in?"
"I know, we’ll invent Russian collusion……....lie like crazy that Trump did it.”

Why is Mueller handing off key cases? What is going on?...not encouraging developments for a big collusion/conspiracy/coordination indictment from Mueller.

I asked a few former federal prosecutors if they saw any messages in Mueller’s move. The takeaway:

<><>”...proves that little if any of what Mueller’s team has generated so far is linked to the special counsel’s mandate,” said Former Prosecutor 1. “Everything that is public so far could, should and typically is handled by either US Attorney offices of jurisdiction; National Security Division attorneys, or even Criminal Division attorneys at Main Justice.”

<><>”Mueller doesn’t have anything on collusion,” said Former Prosecutor 2. “...we would have seen it. I don’t see anything that looks like a crime lurking — maybe he’s got eight indictments under seal, but to me, it makes no sense. All of this says to me there is no there there.”

<><>Former Prosecutor 3 said the investigations passed off — Cohen and Butina — indicate the subject matter is “outside [Mueller’s] jurisdiction.”

So there.

Could Clapper be turning? It appears so.

Clapper is said to be a genius especially for his creation of the NGA which is bigger than the NSA.

The question is, is he an ‘evil genius’ or is he a ‘genius used by evil’ persons?

Is he salvageable? Will he come clean with the Trump camp or is he holding out to see who wins the Midterms?

[Sacajaweau]

The headline is a farce.

Mid December of 2016, after Trump had won the election, Obama said he wanted a report on Russian interference on his desk before he left office.

Apparently it must have been "ready to go"....cuz it was very close to the President's inauguration that the report appeared.

Pretty safe to say that if Trump had NOT been elected, the report or even call for the report would have ever happened. Hillary and her minions would have been safe.....and the FBI shredding machines would have gone into action.

.....a bombshell accusation appears to have been confirmed by FBI lovebird-turned-songbird Lisa Page ....
Page tends to confirm suspicions that Mueller's is a cover-up scheme to obscure the Obama admin's criminal use
of the US counter-intelligence apparat to spy on a presidential campaign and then sabotage the Trump presidency .....

The Obama police state must be exposed.....the evidence is overwhelming.

PROOF POSITIVE THAT OBAMA KNEW----Obama’s CYA maneuver of January 3, 2017-——the signing of NSA Data-Sharing Order Section 2.3 by AG Lynch —— is the coupe d’etat to blow out The Deep State. Obama’s after-the-fact ex/order contains some unusual language particularly the convoluted language WRT “The Strategic Delay of Section 2.3 of Obama’s Executive Order 12333”:

NOTE WELL: Prior to the formal signing of Section 2.3, greater latitude ALREADY existed within the White House in regards to collection of information – especially in relation to the Trump Campaign. However, once signed, Section 2.3 granted broad latitude to inter-agency sharing of information. But by the time Obama’s new executive order was signed on January 3, 2017, all that information was already in the possession of Obama White House.

Thus, Susan Rice’s January 20, 2017 email to herself takes on an even greater significance b/c no one was ever supposed to know about the REAL meaning of Obama’s retroactive CYA.....until Rice stupidly laid it all out in an official email.

==================================================

When Susan Rice stupidly wrote a CYA memo to herself, she inadvertently confessed to a series of crimes that added the time line and inferences about what the outgoing Obama administration illegally concealed from incoming President Trump and his aides. CYA memos are rarely a good idea. Most often, they reveal things the author never intended——ala Susan Rice’s now-infamous email to herself.

WHY SUSAN RICE WROTE AN EMAIL TO HERSELF........the extraordinary email Obama’s National Security Advisor Susan Rice wrote to herself at 12:15 on January 20, 2017........within minutes of President Trump’s inauguration must have been her last act, more or less, before she vacated the White House. So obviously the email was important to her. But why would it be important to send an email to herself (the only person copied was one of her aides)?

If you read the email, along with Senator Grassley’s letter to Rice, it is obvious that it is a CYA memo. But the question is, whose A is being C’d? 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 Yates–who turns up like a bad penny whenever skulduggery is afoot– <><>and Rice:

A HUGE RED FLAG---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 Obama CYA company line.

But Rice did not write her email to cover Barack Obama’s 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 haven’t 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 C’ing her own A. Rice was nervous about the fact that, at the president’s direction, she had failed to “share information fully as it relates to Russia” with President Trump’s 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 administration–General Michael Flynn–she 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 Obama’s 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 Comey’s FBI had used Steele’s fabrications as the basis for FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign were among the facts that Obama and his minions didn’t 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 Trump’s 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 wasn’t supposed to tell the Trump team. One of these days, we will learn what was blacked out.

The fact that Michael Flynn was Susan Rice’s counterpart in the incoming administration may also be significant. We know that the FBI agents who interviewed General Flynn–even Peter Strzok!–reported that they didn’t think he had lied about anything. And yet, Obama’s DOJ and Bob Mueller’s “investigation”–basically a continuation of Obama’s corrupt Department of Justice under another, less accountable name–persecuted 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 administration’s 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.

There is another factor - It would also allow the special counsel to disband - they found the “case”, but these can take many months to adjudicate. By handing off the court appearances instead of keeping them within the “team” they can exit stage left and write their memo about the President prior to the mid-terms.

Thanks.....had to be an ulterior motive.

“Clapper has let the cat out of the bag. He’s also now a dead man walking.”

Wrong I’m afraid. He’s just shifted the focus to the most untouchable person in the coven. It insulates everyone else and kills any chance of real pursuit of the truth. Evil genius move by evil genius pricks.

[chief lee runamok]

Maybe lying crapper is sensing a jail cell for the rest of his lying life.

[I want the USA back]

We knew that. The mainstream media is not going to tell anyone.

[logi_cal869]

If Clapper’s turning, it’s only because he feels vulnerable and he’s protecting his backside.

Lisa Page and others will set the stage for this theater to come unraveled.

The overarching question is about what happens when we all know the truth...

[Bigtigermike]

Obama underlings are still legally responsible no matter who told them to commit crimes. I agree that no matter what we think should righteously happen, the political process will not charged a former President in obama with anything. It is what it
