RUSH: Well, well, well, if anybody doubts the political nature of the Mueller investigation, all you have to do is take a look at the news today. For crying out loud, they really want us to believe that Paul Manafort met with Julian Assange three times before WikiLeaks published the Podesta emails?
Where’s this story been? If this were true, they would have known this all the way back when Obama and his buddies were spying on the Trump campaign. And we would have heard about this long before today. So what the heck is going on?
Greetings, my friends, and welcome. Here you are tuned to the most listened to radio talk show on earth and on Mars. The Rush Limbaugh program and the EIB Network, 800-282-2882. Send an email, ElRushbo@eibnet.us.
For crying out loud. Now the media salivating, barely able to keep its pants up here because they think they’ve got some brand-new revelation. There’s two things about Manafort. Manafort is said to have lied after reaching a plea deal with Mueller and his Trump-hating prosecutors. So that Manafort’s plea deal is now out the window, because what you do when you make a plea deal, you have to tell the truth about everything. And I don’t think Manafort’s been lying about anything. What Manafort’s refusing to do is to compose evidence, make it up!
I tell you, folks, I’m so tarnished here by what has happened to our Department of Justice ever since Trump announced his campaign for presidency that I do believe we have a two-tier justice system, and I don’t believe anything coming out of this bunch here, the Mueller investigation and people involved in it. Paul Manafort had nothing to do with anything.
All of this is designed to create a political climate where Trump can be pressured, where the Democrats can make a foundation for impeachment. That’s all that’s going on here, because they don’t have any evidence that Trump colluded. They’re ignoring the evidence of real collusion that took place here, as you know, between Hillary Clinton and the rest of the people on that side, Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele. All of that is being ignored.
Manafort was with the campaign two or three months, and now all of a sudden Manafort has become the focus? And this, of course, is allowing the media to say, “This should make Trump really, really nervous. Now that Manafort lied, Manafort’s lying to the prosecutor.” I don’t believe Manafort’s lying to the prosecutor. I think the prosecutor is asking Manafort to say a bunch of things that he won’t say. I think Manafort’s resisting the pressure.
Look, we know from the Enron trials, we know from the Enron task force that these people were — we know from the Ted Stevens trial that some of the very lawyers on those cases are on Mueller’s team, and they were suborning perjury from their own star witnesses against Ted Stevens. The case was eventually thrown out. These people ought not even be practicing law anymore. They ought not be part of the Justice Department.
The idea that they wouldn’t force using all the power they’ve got, Manafort, to make things up or to compose evidence. And if Manafort’s refusing to do it, then this is exactly what I would think would happen. “He’s lying to us. We’re gonna revoke the plea deal. To hell with Manafort.” They’re trying to break him.
Now This News in the U.K. Guardian that Manafort met three different times with Julian Assange in the Ecuadoran embassy in the U.K. That news just hit this morning. Why? What would be the point of Manafort meeting with Assange? And note something. In none of these stories do you see the name “Trump,” not a single time, not a single place is the word “Trump” mentioned, the president, the candidate. Trump is not implicated in any of this.
All this is a guilt-by-association thing. All of this is a political trap. This is not about the execution of justice. It’s not about law and order. It’s not about trying to get to the bottom of what happened in the 2016 election. It’s about trying to overturn it. And short of being able to do that, it’s about discrediting the winner.
So why is it news that Manafort might have met with Julian Assange? And I’m here to tell you, they had spies, we know that the Obama administration already had spies, they were looking, they had people embedded in the Trump campaign. If this had happened, I guaran-damn-tee you CNN and the Washington Post, New York Times would have been told about this months and months ago, they would have known about this.
Because the minute Manafort was hired, Carter Page over here and Manafort was supposedly, the FBI and the DOJ knew that he was a bad guy, and they were worried, they thought about informing Trump that they might have had some mistakes here in hiring these two guys, but then they didn’t. Instead they planted spies in the campaign to try to catch the Russians rather than inform the Trump campaign that they might have made a mistake. None of that happened. If Assange and Manafort had met, they would have known about it a long, long time ago. I mean, back in 2016 during the campaign.
So what are we supposed to conclude? Well, it’s not about what we’re supposed to conclude. It’s what the media can now start speculating. Possibility number one. Manafort had the Podesta emails because Manafort knew that the Russians had hacked the DNC server, and that’s where Podesta’s emails were. Except they weren’t. But, remember, we’re not dealing with facts here; we’re dealing with people that are willing to make it up and suborn perjury.
So don’t be surprised if you see a story somewhere, some obscure place to start, and it will be picked up and eventually in the Drive-By Media that Manafort might have had advance notice the Podesta emails were gonna be hacked and told Assange about it or gave those emails or a link to them to Assange. Or the third possibility is Manafort told Assange that there had been a hacking attack, successful, of Podesta’s emails and to tell WikiLeaks and Assange to be on the lookout and maybe go out there and try to find ’em. That’s the value here.
What other possibility is there for leaking that Paul Manafort met with Assange? I guarantee you it wasn’t about property or investments in the Caymans. The idea that Manafort met. And now Manafort is accused of lying to the special counsel so much and so badly that the special counsel, the inestimable Robert Mueller is now thinking of canceling the plea deal because he’s not getting what he wanted out of Manafort. Not getting what he wanted.
Manafort probably doesn’t know jack. Nobody knows jack because what they are trying to lay the foundation for happening didn’t, unless you go investigate Hillary Clinton. Are we blue in the face talking about this and are you blue in the face hearing about it? Sorry, but this has made the top of the fold of the news today, these two Manafort stories.
Pentangelli:
Look, the FBI guys, they promised me a deal. So, so I made up a lot of stuff about Michael Corleone ‘cause that’s what they wanted. But it was all lies. Uh, everything. And I kept saying Michael Corleone did this and Michael Corleone did that. So, I said yeah sure — why not?deal. So, so I made up a lot of stuff about Michael Corleone ‘cause that’s what they wanted.

I was driving, so got to listen to Rush, today. He laid it all out so that even this Doofus could understand what was/is going on.
Please! Make. It. Stop. What a waste of time and taxpayer dollars!
However, I don’t care if they spent another 20 million CONVICTING Hillary! and 0bama.
Mueller should be prosecuted for suborning perjury.
Rush better watch out. Gestapo Müller’s volk will be making up evidence against Limbaugh next.
I think Mueller offered him a deal on some of the evidence he had on Manafort. Manafort, believing that Mueller had presented all the evidence took the deal.
Then Mueller showed that he had other evidence and claimed that Manafort lied by not telling everything, and then broke the deal. I think it was all done as a pre-text. with Mueller always intending to prosecute Manafort fully.
Corsi was just on Tucker’s Fox show. I don’t know him and I don’t care what he did or didn’t do.. but I care what mueller is doing to this man and others he wants to crucify for his fun sport for the week!!!
They go after anyone who talked to... phone call.... email... and find nothing mueller can legally use. They go after all this with no evidence. BUT HILLARY IS GUILTY OF WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO PIN ON ANYONE ELSE!!! they don’t even mention the name.
HOw can they go after all of them and not do a thing with hillary. How can we, in the United States, let this go on!!!!!! My God.. this is a horrible thing to do to so many for minor transgressions.. and let hillary and bill go with all they have done.. MY God.. where are we!!!!
If the Podesta and DNC emails came from a leaker (not a hacker), then this story is part of a cover-up to bolster the (false) claim that it was hacked.
Assange said many times the emails did not come from Russian sources, and I think he said they came from a “non-state actor” e.g. a private person.
So 1) a government hacked and gave them to a person or 2) a person hacked or 3) they were not hacked at all but stolen by someone inside the DNC and handed off to Wikileaks.
I watched part of it. For some reason the name sounds familiar
No one hacked the system long enough to download that much data. Someone copied it locally and provided it
This is from Wikipedia.
In March 2008 Corsi claimed in WorldNetDaily
Like I said, I don’t know him and I don’t care what he is or did... it’s what mueller is doing that is wrong.. and corrupt to the core. He’s after anyone he can pin anything on.. cause he came up empty on Trump... he can’t just say he found nothing.. so he’s going after who he can get for anything.
And meanwhile.. there is hillary... he lets her slide.. what is wrong with this picture!! they also let obama slide.. obama did so much dirt in his 8 years.. and because he’s their token black and has a nice crease in his pants .. he is golden and can’t be touched.. he’s one of them!
In the meantime, they are getting by with enough crimes to send them to prison... except they are the ones with the gavel.. and the media is on their side...
(you didn’t say what corsi did.. no link)
I don’t care if they spend 20 Trillion CONVICTING Hillary! and 0bama.
Yep, it was ‘the guy in the room’ scenario, which tied up all the loose ends for me. No hack....no mystery guy in some foreign country....no Russians or North Koreans. I might even be willing to believe some other party accomplished the act, and Seth Rich accidentally stumbled upon the situation and was killed by the insider hacker.
Rush better watch out. Gestapo Müller’s volk will be making up evidence against Limbaugh next.
And the GOPe. Rush has just been eviscerating them in support of POTUS. He certainly hedged his bets before Trump won but since Trump has been in the WH Rush has been solidly on the Trump Train.
Of course. They expect us to believe that the DNC doesn’t have a team of IT specialists, and they couldn’t figure out who accessed the files, from where, and when. And then of course, claiming they were “hacked”, refused to let the FBI investigate the hack by examining the servers. In any other circumstance the case would end there for lack of evidence.
And if that isn’t incredible enough, then they claimed that “17 intelligence agencies”, which was really only a couple of hand-picked people from a couple of agencies who had no access to the server, state that it was likely Russian hackers. The main evidence for this claim is that the documents obtained from Wikileaks had Russian encoding. However, at least 5 of the documents had identical coding which indicates that these documents were cut and pasted onto a template - in other words, they were likely forged to appear as if they passed through Russian hands.
Given what we now know about the FBI’s involvement in spying on the Trump campaign; planting a foreign agent (MI6 agent Steele) with known biases and Russian ties into Fusion GPS so he could pass bogus information straight to the DOJ’s #4 deputy director via his wife’s employment at Fusion and bypassing all the normal vetting processes for intel in order to create under false pretenses a justification to spy on the opposition; Comey drafting the exoneration of Hillary months before they completed the investigation, lying to the FISA court; the set-up of Carter Page & Papadopoulis & Don Jr and General Flynn among others by planting them with information in order to later solicit the information to justify their spying; leaking info to the media etc etc, it should be clear that the handling of the DNC leak was just part and parcel of the hand & glove cooperation to rig the 2016 elections in their favor. It must be one hell of a gravy train but if they had won perhaps none of this would be known today.
But shock, Hillary still lost the election, and so they continued to push this phony Russia story as misdirection and propaganda to avoid further scrutiny of their own criminal conspiracy. The Mueller appointment was specifically targeted at Trump despite zero evidence of a crime to further the misdirection and buy them time to mop up to the extent possible evidence of collusion and criminal conspiracy. That Rosenstein, who himself is conflicted and should have recused, appointed Mueller who is conflicted and should have recused to investigate Trump and no other candidate or campaign is a miscarriage of justice and an act of vengeance, sedition, and institutional cover-up.
In fact, the DNC claim of a hack and subsequent refusal to allow investigation is troubling in several ways. There exists the possibility that the DNC has one or more moles, foreign spies, who stole the information from inside the DNC. It is dereliction of duty not to investigate this possibility. Either the DNC was hacked from the outside, or it was leaked by a whistleblower, or it was leaked by a spy. But the FBI could not know because they were denied the ability to investigate. It suggests that they do in fact know exactly what happened, and that the story they are selling is a fabrication because if there was the possibility that the DNC had a mole, you would think the DNC and the country would want to find that mole. Instead, they just concocted a cover story and then pushed it to the max.
For Podesta, the first sentence on wikipedia is "In March 2016, the personal Gmail account of John Podesta..." Unless you believe that google employees pulled an inside hack, then it makes more sense that the Podesta hack was external. The common story is that Podesta receieved a phishing email, was told it was legitimate by IT, and gave up his password to a phishing site.
As for the "long enough to download that much data" idea, that's pretty much a nonissue with high speed connections.
I was at a particular military base around a decade ago, and they (way above the base structure) decided to conduct a test to see how long it’d take to compromise the network, and they sent this type of phishing email to one single person within the base communications network. He opened it up within three minutes of receiving it....it rooted itself in the network system, and they had full control within an hour. After that period, there was a massive amount of change to occur.
I sense that the political players are five to ten years behind, and Podesta was just one single individual who did this....out of 50,000 DC players.
Podesta’s team fell for a phishing scam and surrendered the password.
