Obama's Other Investigation

It’s apparent to all but President Trump’s most deranged critics that Obama’s FBI was indeed spying on his campaign. So, it’s worth pointing out that, in addition to the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane operation, the Obama administration was running another concurrent higher-level counterintelligence investigation into alleged Russian efforts to aid Trump’s campaign that hasn’t gotten nearly as much attention. Details of the second investigation were leaked by high-level Obama administration officials for a June 2017 Washington Post story headlined, “Obama’s secret struggle to punish Russia for Putin’s election assault”.

The anonymously sourced accounts of meetings only attended by a handful of intelligence bureau chiefs and their inner thoughts and objectives could have only been provided by people in the uppermost echelon of the intelligence community under Obama, like Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, CIA director John Brennan, and FBI director James Comey.

CIA Director John Brennan’s “Intelligence Bombshell”
According to the Post, sometime in the summer of 2016, Brennan received,

a report drawn from sourcing deep inside the Russian government that detailed Russian President Vladi­mir Putin’s direct involvement in a cyber campaign to disrupt and discredit the U.S. presidential race.

But it went further. The intelligence captured Putin’s specific instructions on the operation’s audacious objectives -- defeat or at least damage the Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton, and help elect her opponent, Donald Trump.

They are going to seriously try to spin this around and say Obama was actually HELPING the campaigns and punish Russia????

Seriously???

I can’t keep track anymore - what kind of operation is AmericanThinker.org?

This all seems like it’s building up and Barr seems like the REAL DEAL.

He closed the mueller case. He appointed a prosecutor to look into this whole mess.

But i would LOVE to see the words indicted or prison or found guilty soon.

Though I think a couple of folks are in court or some shady dealings and they aren’t one of our guys.

After Uranium One, Putin owned Hillary!

Not a chance that he wanted Trump to win.

CYA

[USCG SimTech]

Here comes the spin that it wasn’t me, it was Russia. Now that it can’t be pinned on Trump.

After that fails it’ll be some other organization that can’t prove a negative thus they are automatically guilty until the accused can prove they are innocent.

[BenLurkin]

It makes no sense. Why would Putin want to help America?

[bert]

Obama is guilty of political espionage

Obama ordered espionage on a massive scale to gather info on all Republican candidates, especially the perceived leader, Jeb Bush

Brennan saying it was comey who insisted on using the document. Trey gowdy says comey has the better argument based on what he has seen

[Buckeye McFrog]

The clincher for me is the fact that Herr Mueller has virtually disappeared from the fact of the Earth. Clearly his nuts are in a sling and he knows it.

[RummyChick]

I can see it. Our country is always trying to destabilize and throw out leaders. I have no doubt that Russia tried to do what we do with other countries.

Corrupt Obama Deep State Applied for More than One FISA Warrant to Spy on Trump Team ..
GATEWAY PUNDIT | 1/13/2019 | Jim Hoft / FR Posted by bitt

Obama's corrupt FBI apparently applied for more than one FISA warrant to spy on the Trump campaign. We now know from the the transcripts of former and corrupt FBI attorney Lisa Page’s testimony in front of Congress that one of these requests was referred to the as the “Dragon FISA”. We also know that they thought it was a joke. According to Jeff Carlson at the Epoch Times, the transcripts from former FBI attorney Lisa Page’s testimony in front of Congress refer to a separate FISA warrant the FBI requested related to the Trump – Russia Witch Hunt. This request was referred to as the Dragon FISA which was discussed at some point in the corrupt FBI agent’s testimony – "This discussion quickly led into another area—an Oct. 18, 2016, email from Strzok containing the subject line “Re: Dragon FISA.”

Page quickly noted that she could not discuss the matter in an unclassified setting—but would be able to discuss the matter with congressional investigators in a classified setting. The Dragon FISA was referenced in an article by John Solomon in The Hill: “In one email exchange with the subject line “Crossfire FISA,” Strzok and Lisa Page discussed talking points to get then-FBI Deputy DirectorAndrew McCabe to persuade a high-ranking DOJ official to sign off on the warrant. Crossfire Hurricane” was one of the code names for four separate investigations the FBI conducted related to Russia matters in the 2016 election.

“At a minimum, that keeps the hurry the F up pressure on him,” Strzok emailed Page on Oct. 14, 2016, less than four weeks before Election Day. Four days later the same team was emailing about rushing to get approval for another FISA warrant for another Russia-related investigation code-named “Dragon.”” At this point, the potential subject of the ....

This smells.

Not buying it.

Putin’s ability to control the Hillabeast was far far greater than his ability to control the Trumpster. She defined corruption and sleaze.

No need to ask Clinton (and Obama) about their Russian connections-----the paper trail is long and wide.

HILLARY'S STATE DEPT----AND THE OBAMA YEARS---UNRELENTING SCANDAL
By Ari Lieberman/ frontpagemagazine.com

EXCERPT The taxpayer financed-Skolkovo Scandal – While serving as secretary of state, Clinton oversaw a program meant to “reset” relations with Moscow and improve ties. The program centered around the Russian city of Skolkovo near Moscow with the stated aim of “identifying areas of cooperation and pursuing joint projects and actions that strengthen strategic stability, international security, economic well-being, and the development of ties between the American and Russian people.”

Hillary's State Dept program transformed Skolkovo into a technology hub akin to a Silicon Valley. Sensitive American technology was transferred to the Russians, substantially enhancing their military and cyber capabilities. The US Army and the FBI concluded that Russia had exploited the program for military applications.

The FBI warned American technology companies doing business in Skolkovo that the Skolkovo project was a means by which the Russians would acquire dual use technologies and apply them for military ends. According to investigative author Peter Schweizer, Russian and American companies and individuals involved in the Skolkovo fiasco “had major financial ties to the Clintons.”

Moreover, during the Russian reset period, those entities provided the Clintons with “tens of millions of
dollars” in the form of “contributions to the Clinton Foundation, paid for speeches by Bill Clinton, or
investments in small start-up companies with deep Clinton ties.”

Of all the spurious excuses she gives for her loss, the most ludicrous is that
Hillary says she lost her "sure-thing election" because "Putin doesn't like me."

Comey sucked up big-time--told Congress Putin wanted to “harm Hillary.”

Hillary once bragged that she, alone, was brought into Putin's inner sanctum
where she assured Putin she was worried about wildlife like he was.

Putin whispered to an attentive Hilary that they were BFF.

Secy Hillary and Obama were eager to please Russia w/ the friendly reset button.
Hillary later said the reset gambit was Obama's and her idea "to strengthen Russia."

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

Ex-Pres Clinton is s-o-o-o-o friendly he traveled to Russia to clinch the uranium giveaway deal.
And to pocket a $500,000 dollar speaking fee from a Moscow bank plus a sizeable commission.

Billybooboo even laid his "Hot Damn Hokey Hillbilly Act" on Putin.

[RummyChick]

Trumps win has destabilized our govt. I am not sure even Putin could have guessed the chaos Dems would create.

[dp0622]

WTH did Barr say to him!?!?!

The week before the news was Trump’s kids were gonna be indicted soon.

Then it just CLOSED DOWN!

Barr must be tough.

So now that the dems can’t count on that, Rs are helping drag Trump’s kids in front of congress.

[V V Camp Enari 67-68]

It’s all fake news. lets all just move on and not waste any brain cells on this nonsense.

[true believer forever]

They are going to seriously try to spin this around and say Obama was actually HELPING the campaigns and punish Russia????

Seriously???

I can’t keep track anymore - what kind of operation is AmericanThinker.org?

Comey has already telegraphed what his explanation/defense will be: That, based on this deeply sourced Russian intel AT talks about, it was imperative that the FBI et al., check out and spy on Trump - as it very might well have been that he was profiting from help from Putin. I am concerned by this because it could really resonate with the demons; and you don't need a great imagination to foresee how they will use it, as well as the media, to make themselves the heroes just looking out for America's well-being. To me, it's just another anonymous source who likely doesn't exist.

And American Thinker is a great place with a lot of excellent thoughtful material.
